Following the main amphibious landings on May 21st, 4-man patrols were inserted onto the islands where they carried out reconnaissance missions, adding to the capability that SAS and SBS patrols who already operating provided to the task force. Their operations were not limited to reconnaissance, however. Ten days after the main landings, the M&AWC engaged in a successful direct assault with Argentine Special Forces at Top Malo House.
