(Subject: World War II - General) The Tabaris Highlanders were a group of volunteers from the Anglo-Argentine community who arrived in Port Stanley shortly after the beginning of World War II, intending to assist in the defence of the Falkland Islands. They had responded to worrying comment in the Argentine press on the possibility of German warships blockading transit through Cape Horn to Australia, New Zealand, and the Far East. They arrived in Port Stanley aboard the Lafonia escorted by a destroyer. Their role was to prepare defences of the islands in the event of a German Raid.
