I was on the aircraft carrier USS Constellation CV-64 in 1982. We one of our Port of Call was Mombasa Africa in March. The Sheffield happened to be in port in Mombassa and met some British Sailors out in town and they brought onboard the Sheffield and gave us tour of her and gave us a inside look what a what sailor life was like on her. Little did we know on what would happen to her in the near future. She was a beautiful ship.
I boarded the Connie back in early 1997 for a tour when she was moored at North Island. That summer I went to "Great Mistakes". Early the following year I was assigned to USS Boxer LHD-4
In 1981 I was the (Brit) RO of an Italian car carrier docked in Antwerp. It was fairly novel at the time for UK officers to be on Italian vessels, all down to evolving EU law on the movement of labour and the sharp contraction of the British merchant fleet tied to a shortage of officers in the Italian fleet. Enroute to a beer ashore I walked past RFA Sir Galahad berthed adjacent and happened to get in conversation with her loadmaster who mentioned in passing that the RFA was currently recruiting and that I'd love the great life they enjoyed. It sounded fun, but before I could do anything about it I heard the words, 'I'm having a baby' (in Australia, where I remain as an accidental kind of immigrant). I remembered his words when I saw the images of her burning at Fitzroy and I hoped he made it through. Regards to you and the USN.
The Sheffield had the nickname 'The Shiny Sheff' because a tradition had grown up of the eponymous city - Britain's Steel Town - equipping its naval namesakes with lots of stainless steel fittings. Thus they could consider themselves a cut above the standard Type 42 (and might explain the guided tour!)
Mike, Many thanks for posting what looks to be an excellent documentary series on the Falklands War. Some great footage and very insightful interviews with key protagonists on both sides. Brings back many memories for me of this time and the tensions it brought. Congratulations and many thanks for your own personal military service and your literary achievements-and not least for your marvellous RU-vid channel!
Ozzie. I remember at 14 . However , as the conflict continued the Argies appeared to honour the rules of war and the Geneva convention. I can respect them for that.
The Argies did NOT only have 3 Exocets left. France were supplying more via South Africa. I was a friend of a Captain in the SADF who saw them being delivered and shipped out to Brazil. The Argies problem was that the French Engineers who could fit and arm the missiles CHOSE to leave the Argies. Salute to those French
It is also alleged the French provided Britain with the information it needed to jam the guidance system of the Exocet, after Argentina's first use of it.... Unfortunately, this was a while before the better CIWS systems were installed on British Royal Navy ships.....
you are right, but Argentina engineers managed to recreate the guidance system almost by hand and they also managed to mount the missiles in a ground launcher, something that I have read that they thought that were impossible
Argentina received 5 Super Etendard with 5 missiles, every attempt to buy more Exocets were foiled by the British Intelligence. The French tech guys were ordered to leave by the French govt and MDBA.
yer i know, captain kirk was on holiday so the enterprise was flown by an amature.. i knew a dog who once was a dog shit duznt work.. not for me.. not saying your lying.. but i am saying your full of shit.. sorry
My dad was there, he was with the Royal Artillery. He left the army once he got home, he did his 10yrs. He came back a different dad and eventually got over it, well that's what he told us. Respect to all who serve to protect us from evil in the world.🤟
Argentina was evil? They tried to take back a territory that was robbed and colonised in 1833. Same as Britain did in every continent. The problem is that you chaps in the UK were educated in a way that everyone who thinks different or tries to take back what belongs to them, is evil. Wrong. Lastly, nothing against UK. Nice place.

Glad l wasn't there back in 1982 the government weren't issuing passports to young men between the ages of 16 to 25 that's what I heard.

This is a fine documentary about one of the topics of war I've always been intrigued about. I still believe though, that the war would've never happened if Britain hadn't decommissioned the old Ark Royal....with it's fast, long reach F4 Phantoms and Buccaneer fighter bombers. Those aircraft would've been a menacing deterrent for Argentina.
@@tbrowniscoolThat’s what sets a professional armed forces and a conscripted military apart. Britain, especially it’s navy, has a tradition of accomplishing the impossible with less than desirable circumstances. Leadership and determination.
British pilots have always had superior trading and talent. They got the most out of those harrier jets outclassing better planes . The harrier became a legend!
they bounced fighters configured for A2G with no A2A missiles to fight back, no radar, no rwr, no chaff/flares, at the very edge of their combat range, that's easy to do.
@@fcsoldeu5338 naahh that's not true, I'm Argentine btw. The Harrier had a very decent radar, very good acceleration and maneuverability. With an older version of the sidewinder they would still be very dangerous. It's not realistic to think they wouldn't bring missiles to the conflict.

@@duffelbagdragI appreciate everything that you say. The only missing part of your comment is someone called Margaret Thatcher. She was my country’s leader when Argentina invaded our territory. All the men around her advised that we should leave the Falkland Islands to the Argentinians as it was too far to send an army. Thankfully she was the only real man amongst them and she decided….just her….to stand up for freedom.

All wars are fought with young men blood. I wanted to be soldier and and be deployed from age of 18 to my early 30’s. I learned so much about war since then and now think there is nothing worse. I thank God I never needed or decided to go to war. War is nothing else than tragedy, human blood , sweat and tears. Every act of heroism I’m aware of are when soldiers fight for each other or their own home city’s
Having to rely on a Navy that sailed 8,000 miles from Britain for all of their logistics needs, the ground forces were indeed fighting a tough war on the ground, with little reinforcements.
They got notification of the invasion coming on April 1st. I wrote the history of the Falklands invasion with everyone involved, a book called "The First Casualty" and yes, they did all think it was an April Fooks joke!!
Every man who died in that conflict was one too many, irrespective of nationality. I hope their families found solace, that those who died RIP and the wounded recovery.
The Argentine Navy should hang their heads in shame, their Ships fled from the Belgrano and her Sailors were left to perish in a minus twelve degrees Sea, being wary of British Submarines is one thing, but to abandon their Sailors is inexcusable.
I think that the falklands showed how much the UK's military might had decayed to the point they did not even have the transport ships to project power beyond their corner of the world. Hopefully it has gotten better but i hear it is not by much
@@aaronthomas5382 - the Parachute Regiment had no none Para Reg infantry attachees for the conflict. Did he survive the conflict? Are you sure of his Regiment?
I watched a documentary about Simon West visiting the Armada Pilot who unleashed the Exocet. They both agreed that it was Politics and Politicians that pitted all these brave people against each other. Sad.
AlanBbrady, poor Simon West was badly burned on the Sir Galahad. The BBC did a follow up series on his hospital treatment when he got home. To this day I can still hear that poor mans screams when the nurses had to tend his wounds.
I had a friend who did triathlon so he was seriously fit af but he couldnt fathom how anyone can run across boggy ground in the dark with a rifle and 70lb pack without being fcked within 300 yards. We could ten win world cups on the trot and thats still NOTHING compared with what our wonderful lads achieved out there.
I was 12 years old at the time of the conflict and was able to follow the news in real time: there was great concern that the conflict would enter the South American continent, which fortunately did not happen. Here in Brazil, the memory I have is of a division over who would be right in the demands. The subject currently causes little interest among the population.
"dame risks"? That's quite an appropriate typo given the fact he can't keep his **** in his trousers. Although "dame" isn't really the right word for the underage girls he favours.
I've worked with a guy that's ex D squadron (22Reg) and whilst I didn't know him personally before his Falklands deployment, all of his friends in the regiment that I have spoken to, have said that the conflict changed my friend, I recently found out that my friend lost his brother in the conflict. Sadly in war, there are only ever losers.
I often wonder about the boys who were there, Where they are today, and would like to wish them well, and would like to see a catch-up type program to see how they are today. Real heroes in a modern world
One of the Royal Marines who was wounded, left the Service, and disgruntled at how he had been treated by the MOD, traveled down here to Auckland, New Zealand, and by 1990-91 was working in a secondhand book shop on Victoria St West. He was going out with a female friend of mine and was friends with my cousins husband who was in the RNZN. He occasionally used to come to parties and go tramping with us. He was quite happy seeming, and fit in very well with life here. The only time he talked about the Falklands that I remember was talking about how badly treated he was after he was wounded, or so he felt.
I recall scoffing to myself when I saw a company of British soldiers on a wharf at Portsmouth receiving the order from their RSM "To the Falkland Islands, quiiiick...march!" My first though was how pathetic a response it looked. Little did I know how well trained these men were and what a fight they'd put up. That said however, it was later acknowledged that had the war gone on for 4 or 5 weeks longer, the campaign may have been lost owing to the distance of the supply lines.
@@ssgroup1475 The geopolitical situation with China in 1999 was entirely different from that which existed with Argentina in 1982. Additionally, the current British Government is a nothing more than a criminal organisation in comparison to Mrs Thatcher's government. She would never have armed the Nazis in the Ukraine and sent them to fight the Russians. I hope that Mr Putin will defeat the Ukrainians, end the killing and correct the errors of the West.
The fact that you scoffed at the British was your first mistake and a clear indication that your imagination and sense of judgement with regard to British war planning is exceedijkuThen, your second misjudgment was your conception that the supiply lines
@@robertshapiro3733 My first error was the exact wording of the order given by the RSM, it was "To the South Atlantic....quiiiiick march" and not "To the Falkland Islands...." My scoffing was the result of ignorance at that time as to the quality of the British forces. The potential supply line problem was real and was acknowledged by the High Command.
The interesting thing is Although the the Royal navy is even weaker now than 1982 in destroyers and frigates we've got 2 proper aircraft carriers know which can carry 60 fighter jet's whereas as invincible could only carry 12 harriers.
Invincible only carried 8 SHARs Hermes carried 12, that's 20 in total according to "Sharky" Ward and he should know. I can't work out where this figure of 24 comes from.

The Falklands have never belonged to Argentina. Therefore, Argentina should not own something it has no right to own and has never owned. The UK is the lawful Original Sovereign of the Falklands, and claimed them first, in 1594, 222 years before Argentina existed. In 1825 Argentina submitted a full description of all of its lands, islands, latitudes and longitudes claimed, to the UK, in order to be recognised in the Treaty of Friendship: this did not include the Falklands, and Argentina was accepted as such. In 1829 Argentina tried to clandestinely seize the Falklands and ignored a British Formal Diplomatic Protest, and a second in 1832 when they tried to install a governor. In 1833 a British warship asked a trespassing Argentine warship to leave the area which it duly did. The British flag was hoisted and British Sovereignty resumed. Argentina protested intermittently until 1849 when it gave up its claim in the Convention of Settlement, after which, Argentina issued not one Formal Diplomatic Protest for 97 years until 1946, nor were the Falklands mentioned once in the Argentine Congress from ratification of the Convention in 1850 until 91 years later in 1941. Since then, using a settled dispute as a pretext for a fictitious new one, aimed at uniting the people behind a common cause, Argentina has harassed and bullied the Falkland Islanders, denied their human rights, campaigned against their existence, attacked, invaded and annexed their country, covered the place in land mines and dead bodies, and in the present day, bullies their stallholders at trade shows and even their girls badminton team. No country on earth actually has less right to the Falklands than Argentina after its shambolic abuses, and in 2013 the Falkland Islanders, the only people who can determine the sovereignty and political future of the Falkland Islands, voted by 99.8% for UK Sovereignty. The matter is settled.
I'm Brazilian, and I was 16 in 1982. I remember that I felt a sort of relief when Argentina invaded the Falklands, because we knew in Brazil that the political and economic situation there where explosive and, because of the tradicional rivality between our people, we feared that the argentinians could decide to attack us, with the same populist intentions. They were searching for a war. They almost declared war to Chile. It was tense. Well, we must thank US for supporting that sort of dictatorships in our region... Dictators are dictators, no matter where they are. They are always insane and dangerous.
I recommend that you study history better, first you defend an imperialist state that plundered, annihilated countless populations in the world in pursuit of domination of things that have never been theirs To say that the Malvinas are not Argentine is to say "I am an imperialist" Argentina inherited the Falkland Islands from Spain England did not inherit from the populations of what is now South Africa those lands he stole them, looted them If you want, I can tell you about the Indian or Hong Kong case, the latter linked to British drug trafficking
@@viniciogomescompositor It is funny that a Brazilian who got rid of the Brazilian empire, today says that he is in favor of British imperialism that invaded countless peoples, killed them, enslaved them, used them, destroyed them
The British think just because they arrive to an island that its automatically there territory is such selfishness they left and then Spain took over and then Argentina when they saw that they wanted the island back.
Totally unnecessary conflict. So many tragic, horrific deaths. And all to bolster Thatcher's waning popularity amongst the her party and the voters. Hateful woman. RIP to all the combatants that lost their lives.
Why did the Shefield need to shut down radar to talk to London? There job is the picket line. Let the carriers do the talking to london. Any info on this?
A professional superpower army (UK) , backed by the top superpower (USA), against an almost improvised third world army with obsolete and almost useless weapons (Argentina). It was a miracle it took that long for the brits to win the battle. Respect for the courage and bravery of the argentine soldiers, specially the argentine air force.
@@uzoma112 No one cried, just stating facts, it was an asymmetrical battle where the brits had massive technological and military advantage. As to who attacked first, that's open to discussion, the brits attacked first by invading the Malvinas decades earlier, hence the UK being the agressor
they had some good weapons actually. Plus had the benefit of being much closer to the fighting. Having to sail all the way out there and fight for territory on the doorstep of another power is so much different to fighting closer to homeland. Thats called power projection.
@@BAKEDPOTATOLARDYASS Argentina no invadió Malvinas, nadie invade algo que es suyo, en todo caso intentó recuperar parte de su territorio usurpado en 1833. Ese año el que si invadió Malvinas fue Gran Bretaña, ocupó por la fuerza un territorio de un pais soberano cuya independencia había reconocido en 1825 sin haber realizado ningún reclamo sobre su integridad territorial que incluía Malvinas. En ese momento invadió una isla pacífica y además expulsó a toda la población y gobernador argentino de Puerto Soledad para luego implantar colonos desde Gran Bretaña. Parece que muchos cuentan solo una parte de la historia.
@@resonatorneuronium5324 El principal aliado de Gran Bretaña en esta parte del Continente era el General Pinochet de Chile, considerado no de los peores Dictadores de Sudamérica, o sea que no le importaba mucho ese tipo de amistades. Lo peor es que ella ante las Cámaras había manifestado que su Gobierno no negociaba ni tenía relaciones con Dictadores y que solo lo hacía con Gobiernos Democráticos. Una hipocresía total. También te recuerdo que a esas dictaduras las instalaron EEUU en complicidad con Occidente, derrocando Gobiernos Democráticos con la excusa de frenar el Comunismo en América Latina, y que Londres antes y terminada la guerra siguió teniendo relaciones diplomáticas y de amistad con muchas de las Dictaduras sobrevivientes de Sudamérica.
The Sheffield captain managed to get over it and he does have a lovely house. Which is nice. Of course, the naval ratings that were burnt so nobody wanted them anymore did not have quite such a lovely house to live in. Nor are they interviewed. That is a shame. I am sure they must have tales to tell. I wonder where they are.
Much as I disliked Margaret Thatcher,I always felt that had anyone else in Parliament. been Prime Minister the Falklands would have become Argentian permanently
Salt was totally ignored by his Navy colleagues afterwards. Read Peter Ratcliffe "Eye of the Storm" But it seems a strange time to turn your radar off to call London...
@@oldmanc2 Not bother to send proper coded radio messages and instead turn off the radar and use the sat phone - just because it's easier. It's so typical English. Captain Sam Salt was later promoted to rear admiral. What does that say about the other officers in the Royal Navy?
I had sons (now deceased) who fought on opposing sides of this. I was quite the cocksman in my youth, and sired two boys 17 months apart in Argentina and GB. It was sad to read both their letters and knowing they were on a path of death.
The irony is that the British military, including the Royal Navy and the RAF was order of magnitude larger and more potent than today. OK, today the Royal Navy has a more powerful aircraft carrier Queen Elizabeth, but her air wing consist of just a few F-35Bs, less than 24 Harriers that the British task force had to fight the Argentinians in 1982. And the RAF doesn't have a single strategic bomber in its fleet, something similar to Avro Vulcans that prosecuted a successful attack on the Falklands at the beginning of an operation. I wonder and doubt that the GB's military force could execute a similar win against Argentina today. Maybe in 5-7 years when the second aircraft carrier HMS Prince of Wales becomes operational and both carriers receive a full complement of F-35s ( I think it's around 24 aircraft per ship), GB would once again have the upper hand. On the other hand the Astute class submarines are so advanced that only 2-3 of them could probably sink the entire Argentinian fleet... That being said, I think that the Russian invasion of Ukraine has changed the strategic environment in Europe so profoundly that I expect a massive rearmament of all Western powers with Germany being the most in your face example. But than again the German military was so neglected and underfunded that even those 100 billion euros of additional investment will only scratch the surface of all the problems that have been compounded in their security policy of the last 20 years.. Beside Germany countries like POland, the Baltic states, Bulgaria, Romania, France and Italy will also significantly boost their military spending.. Great Britain should be no different. Money will roll in at the levels similar to the ones seen during the height of the Cold War..
There will be no more imperial leaders of Russia after Putin. The next will likely adopt Democracy which Putin knows. This makes Putin a very dangerous man and he is also 70 yrs old. He chose now for many reasons but he didn't expect most of the world to stand against him.
I can't agree. We have Typhoons based down there and one of, if not the best AA destroyers in the world. Plus, of course, the Astutes. The Argentines couldn't get ashore, even if they had the same forces as they had then, which they don't.
Would a strategic bomber be needed today? Presumably tomahawks fired from a sub or Type 45 would do a better job more accurately? Our forces maybe be an order of magnitude smaller than 1982, but they have certainly been modernised and have the very latest technology in the Astute, Type 45 and the F35. I believe the Argentine military has barely modernised at all, and has much the same equipment as they did in 82?
@@silkdestroyer I'm sorry to burst your bubble but recently the high ranking US military commander said it straight.. "We don't consider GB to be a tier one military anymore. They are unable to prosecute larger military operations without a significant logistical support of our own military"... Even if we put Falklands on the side, and I give it to you as a win, you can't get over the fact that the British Army has around 225 tanks all together. The Navy is in even worse situation. At one point there was a fear that the Royal Navy wasn't capable of defending their own shores (out of the generally small number of large surface combatants some were in repair) let alone conduct combat operations in the Pacific region for example... You have too few of everything. From destroyers to frigates to submarines. Royal Air force is also extremely small... Before you attack me I also think that the US military was gutted too, despite the seemingly large annual defense budgets. We were gutted by the 20 years of counter insurgency warfare which neglected investments into weapons and technologies needed for a near peer combat scenarios.. Thankfully this has changed in the last 5 - 8 years and the US military is once again funneling money towards R&D of the weapons needed to fight China..
@@markbrisec3972 A fair assessment. HOWEVER, my comment was solely focused on the Falklands, and, as you pointed out, the Astutes are more than capable of preventing any Argentine force getting anywhere near the islands. As for the US "once again funnelling money into weapons R&D", one thing the US is very good at is coming up with bigger and better ways to kill and destroy.
Big mistake, messing with British Naval. The Brits can take care of business on the sea. Some of the very best in the entire world, baned only by the limits of their hardware.

Great bio on the conflict. The British Navy's history alone needs to be the flag bearer of all future missions. I just pray immigrants are not in the navy surrendering.

That Bussar fellow from Argentina was a good dude. No ego, not chasing a body count. If you have to be at war with somebody, I would rather that then then say someone who has a game plan to send as many body bags back they will loose their will to fight. Right or Wrong, at least he was not blood thirsty. The UK was being run by people that had been in WW2.....you know there is absolutely no quit in them. The whole operation was doomed from the start, for sure....but at it could have been worse for both sides.
One of the first books I read about the falklands as a kid described an event where an ammo dump went up, and enough of something went up to immolate a few dozen troops. They were so badly burned and running around on fire and rolling around that orders were given to finish them off and put the poor men out of their misery instead of letting them suffer. Also later everyone ran out of water and was drinking it off the moss and mud, and got really. Really sick and were evacuating their bowels and etc on the forced march
