And how exactly would russia resupply the russian-occupied Königsberg? There is only a railroad connecting russia to this exclave via Lithuania and Belarus, akin to the situation during the Cold War in West Berlin, where it was totally surrounded by the Soviet-controlled East Germany, so the West had to run its supplies to West Berlin under Soviet consent because the Soviets controlled all the roads around West Berlin, or the only thing the West could do was air drops (heard of Berlin Airlift?) So the situation now is reversed, originally russia still had the sea route to hope for because it's also a port, unlike Berlin, so they might ship stuff there from st. putinsburg since there were two neutral countries on the way that they could go pass, but with the developments in Finland and Sweden, the Baltic Sea is now practically a Nato lake, so both the land route and sea route can be easily cut off in case of war. Now if only the germans had a bit of guts and backbones left so they can come out and say that their ancestral home of Königsberg shall return to the fatherland, and this could all be over.
the british think they have the devine right to continue to occupy islands thousands of miles from their own land.they were run out of Asia parts of Africa the Caribbean for the most part and central and South America where they occupied other people's countries. Hopefully as the UK falls apart under the weight of its own greed, the malvinas will revert back to their rightful owners.
My old schools reverend (Sherborne school) went to live on the falklands around 2017 or so, and it’s funny how he made sure to save up and take like 2 crates worth of shotgun shells to accompany him for the sheer amount of birds that reside on the island
I first saw a short interview on bbc with Ben was so glad you spent more time with him ! If he ever needed money he could open his house up for tours ! It really is amazing !
It is the same all around the world , as we get along and have no problems with our neighbor's/friends then no uprising but afterwards well every one has pitch forks and all the goody goodies turn Evil. we live in a society of Hypocrites
The heroic people of Malta deserved more than the George Cross. They deserved full equal-status in the UK as a British Overseas Terroritory, which shamefully denied to them by scoundrels in government in London. Britain never had a better friend than Malta. But in Britain, still today, we are ruled by traitors.
I have always struggled with the military as I have bad attitude to hierarchy and can't stop myself questioning everything. This is one of my failings. I do however understand its necessity. I have the up most respect for anyone who serves and the brutal experience many go through. I am also aware that this experience breaks some and makes some. The job you do in conveying these stories is invaluable. The stories for most are unimaginable and its important for people to recognise the serisouse of the situations that occur in a military environment. I also think that many outside the military could learn from the humility and lack of ego by people who have done brave acts.
I at 43 struggle with what they spoke about around 16 minutes. The wife makes sure we have physical pictures up around the house, but we do not have a photo album any longer. I have mine from growing up as does my wife, but our children do not. We take so many photos and videos now that a life is almost entirely captured. I make sure to not take to many photos and just enjoy life. Maybe I should actually create a photo album of key moments.
How has this only 90K views? I've seen "dark docs" videos - which are terrible btw - released at the same time on the same subject with 750K views. Something is not right. Its either an issue with listing or you're being SB'd.
I did a tour down there shortly after the war travelling back to UK on Uganda and we still used to get the odd Argentinian aircraft get too near the islands to be chased off by our Phantoms! We had to 'crash out' several times to disperse our Chinooks to safe locations flying in the dark with NVG's on no lights! I loved the place, it was how England 'used to be'. We were based at Kellys Garden at San Carlos. We go to see the amazing people and the scenery. There is a 5 mile long white beach called 'Paloma Beach' was home for the Emporer Penguins. Im glad we took it back and basically if they try to take it again......guess what......we will be ready.
anywhere that speaks spanish turns to schist, glad this is not one of them (for now), what a shame that the british empire didn't colonize the south america continent aggressively, or argentina would be as rich as the u.s. and canada alike today (definitely has the potential to be on par with one of the g7 countries, if not one of them itself) but that could change soon since the spanish are creeping up north from mexico, again like i said, anywhere that speaks spanish turns to schist, so watch out north america, you could be the next argentina (speaking from an angry argentinian that saw the country gone to schist)
Comer off it, Joe is taking the piss. You couldn't miss it from the intro as he was driving. He's aggressive and mocking. Hats off to Ben who seems to deal with his evident nerves well.
Hi, a large chopper flown to a lone unit under attack that has had NO SUPPLIES, what was the staff back at base thinking? At the very least they could have scrounged water, rations and munitions and volunteers from around the base, surely? There was so much that could have been done that some heads had to be cut loose! Shame on them! Thats not the Para way of looking after your mates! As an ex C Coy 3 Para from the sixties I am dumbfounded. Cheers mate. Harera
In the United States we weren’t involved in the conflict with the argentines, but my friends and I were all trying to do everything possible to support the UK including letter writing. Great Video! 🇺🇸 ❤ 🇬🇧 🫡
