Unless that was where the British hid some helos and Harriers and associated personnel, supplies, equipment and POL during the Argentinians' attempted occupation of the Falklands. They may have mothballed some of those assets there after the Argentinians left because it became impractical to bring them back to the main islands, at least for a time.
