Special Lecture: The Raid on Top Malo House
The Royal Marines Club is honoured to bring together Chris Stone ML and Capt. Rod Boswell to present an informal lecture on the Raid on Top Malo House.
The Raid was fought on 31st May 1982 during the Falklands War, between 1st Assault Section Argentine Special Forces from 602 Commando Company and a patrol formed from staff and trainees of the British Mountain and Arctic Warfare Cadre, under the Control of 3 Commando Brigade.
Led by Capt. Rod Boswell, eighteen Royal Marines took the Argentine position after a fierce firefight. The Raid on Top Malo House was an important step in clearing Argentine observation posts ahead of the main British advance. Later studies put the victory down to the Royal Marines’ superior training and ingenuity.
This is a very special opportunity to hear about the events of that day firsthand from Capt. Rod Boswell himself and Chris Stone ML who was badly wounded in the attack. The lecture has only been given once before on The Royal Marines Clubs’ Winter Deployment. It may never be given again.
An engaging and entertaining evening awaits with drinks until 11am at the bar. All proceeds will go towards the Club’s Winter Deployment to Norway in 2020.
Tickets go on sale soon. Please click here to stay informed by email.

Club Winter Deployment to Norway
We believe that everyone needs a holiday from time to time. Our goal is to give veteran & serving Royal Marines with physical, mental or financial challenges, a short break with their families free of any significant expense. During the Royal Marines Club Winter Deployment, we hope to reignite old friendships, start new ones and generally have a hoofing time!
We’re grateful to the Rondane Høyfjellshotell, Veteranforbundet SIOPS and The Royal Marines Charity who we partner with for this special week.

Since 1664 Yomp
The Club will be on hand to support with the marshalling of the 1664 Yomp in May.
This 100-mile ‘stroll’ is not for the faint-hearted and some would argue harder than the famous Commando tests Royal Marines encounter to earn their green beret. Get your hiking boots on and show us what you are made of.
Departing from Abey Gardens, next to King Alfred’s Statue in the centre of Winchester soon after first light on Saturday 26th May 18 and following the official 100 mile (160K) route, with the minor detours to get to suitable scran points, we finish just beyond the bottom of Beachy Head after Yomping a full 166.4 KMs.
Yomp, or Your Own Marching Pace, came to public prominence in 1982, When 3 Cdo Bde Yomp across the Falkland Islands. Since 1664, when the Corps was formed as the Duke of York’s Maritime Regiment of Foot, The Royal Marines has been overcoming seemingly impossible physical and mental challenges to achieve their objectives. It’s the Commando Mindset.
