According to the veteran, he decided to change his address to the archipelago a year and a half ago, in the civil registry of Ushuaia, where it is enough to declare an address of the islands to formalize the procedure. Then the document is sent to the province where it is delivered personally.

Hillar explained to the local media that he had adopted this behavior as a "symbolic claim" of Argentine sovereignty over the Malvinas, although also as tribute to a dead companion who was very close to him during the war with Great Britain.

The home of the veteran appears at the address "Eduardo A. Vallejo 103. Puerto Argentino".

Vallejo is the name of his companion, who died between 11 and 12 June 1982 while he was in a trench and was receiving shrapnel from a naval bomb that exploded two meters from him..

Both had known each other since before going to the Malvinas because they had performed together the compulsory military service in the airborne artillery group 4 of La Calera (Córdoba) when they had been summoned in the islands on April 23, 82 and had immediately traveled with a previous stopover. in Comodoro Rivadavia.

Hillar recalled that before changing address, he had requested the permission of the parents of Vallejos and that they had accepted.

"His death is something that has marked me a lot and his presence in the document is a way to take it wherever I go," said the veteran.

Hillar has expected that he will participate in the vote on Sunday, and he is perhaps the only one to do so among the exclusive register of four people domiciled in the Falkland Islands..
