March 10th, 1937
After the evacuation of Las Malvinas by the British garrison at the end of February, the Chilean Navy has garrisoned the islands for the foreseeable future. A convoy of several Chilean ships, including two Chilean liners requisitioned as troopships for the ~400 man force being landed on the islands, set off from Puerto Montt and arrived at the islands a few days later, encountering some severe storms off Cape Horn. Escorting the troopships were two destroyers and a handful of support ships. In addition, two supply ships are expected to bring up coastal artillery and other reinforcement for the garrison tomorrow.
Citizens at Stanley were somewhat uncomfortable receiving the Chilean troops, despite the Chilean's hearted efforts to speak in broken English.
