Mount Pleasant Airport, formally RAF Mount Pleasant and now the Mount Pleasant Complex, is a UK Ministry of Defence Joint Operating Base in the Falkland Islands. It is operated by the British Armed Forces and is used for air operations, including both military and civilian flights.

This special stamp issue marks the 35th Anniversary of the tragic deaths of two local firefighters, Gerard Johnson and Robert Finlayson, the only two Firemen in the Falkland Islands who have lost their lives while on active duty.
