The year is 1958. Tensions between the United States of America and Peronist Argentina have been growing substantially in the past 5 years. An attempted coup in Buenos Aires, backed by the USA, failed miserably and resulted in nationwide embarrassment for America. President Juan Domingo Peron did not help matters by building fortresses in the Falklands and expanding its air force. In response to this, President Eisenhower has deployed a small fleet of the US Navy to keep Argentina in check. However, when documents that supposedly showed Argentina had secretly traded with the USSR and was planning to eliminate America's presence in South America were intercepted by the CIA, Eisenhower decided to act fast.
After 34 hours of debate, Congress ruled that any military action in Argentina would not be seen as an official war and would instead be seen as a form of intervention. On May 25, 1958, the first shots of the engagement were fired by the USS Iowa at Argentine positions on the Falkland Islands. The Argentine navy made a wise decision by not engaging with the better trained and better equipped US Navy, instead choosing to launch surprise attacks with its submarines. On May 27th, the first US troops were landed on the Falklands. They met stiff resistance and only succeeded in capturing their objectives that night. On May 28th, a combination of British and American troops who had been stationed in Panama landed at Rio Gallegos and established a firm beachhead on the coast. Peron is utterly furious at the American Congress for its refusal to declare war and has called upon its allies of Brazil and Chile to help repel the invaders. In the meantime, Eisenhower has managed to start to fund a small rebellion in Argentina's Chilean provinces in order to spread out the Argentine military.
The current date of the RP is May 29th, 1958. There are three factions to support: The Chilean Rebels, The South American Coalition, and the US-Anglo Pact. Currently, none of the factions have had any major military victories, with most of the fighting either being small skirmishes or flat-out draws.

As a small side note, this RP was supposed to be primarily in the Falklands, but I didn't want to rip off the other Argentina and basically make a second thread of the same issue. If you need any further info about this RP, feel free to telegram me!
