At the outbreak of WW2, the British Community in Argentina was the largest outside the physical boundaries of the British Empire. British capital has been heavily invested in all aspects of the Argentinian economy including railways, shipping, meat-packing, ranching, wheat brokering, banks and insurance and British owned public utilities such as gas and phone companies. The British community also had its own sports clubs and schools.

During WW2 some 2,280 British-born and Anglo-Argentines volunteered for active service despite Argentina not being a part of the British Empire and neutral throughout the conflict. British volunteers were granted the special concession of wearing the shoulder title of their country of residence. Some 197 men and 7 women volunteers died during the conflict. A scarce title.
