One fact I learnt from written accounts of the SAS raids on airfields, both in the Falklands and WW2 was that when destroying multiple aircraft of the same type, like the Pucaras, was to always put the explosive charges on the same position on each aircraft, that way the opposition can't cannibalise damaged aircraft to repair a few working ones!

Hi, I'm from Buenos Aires, Argentina. I always find it fascinating to watch videos or documentaries about the war from the british perspective. A couple of weeks ago I saw a documentary about this operation (I don't know if I can put a link to that video here) but it's called "Special Air Service (SAS) - The Falklands Campaign", really cool. No hard feelings. A pointless war. Our countries should never have gone to war. I am more angry about what the military government of that moment did to its own citizens...they kidnapped, tortured and killed thousands of Argentines. I admire the Argentine Air Force but I also admire the Royal Air Force and everything they did during ww2....I love the Spitfire! =) Good luck with your channel. Bye. Adios. (sorry, my english is very rusty, I hope you understand what I have written XD)

Big fan of the channel, keep up the good work Mark!! As an Argentine, I will always regret the great damage that my country inflicted on the lives of the people that lives on the Falklands, despite what you might think is right or wrong, we had no right to mess with their lives. If we talk about the infantry marine corps, to say that some decisions and strategies taken by our command and generals were stupid and rushed will be an understatement. It will always be a mystery for me how our generals choose to challenge a nation with hundreds of years of warfare expertise...I just don't get it. Despite that fact, many great soldiers fought till their last breath. It was a pointless war, at least for our side. From a historical point of view, I will always be fascinated by the Falklands War, after all, it is the only modern combat of Argentina. The efficiency and talent which of our Air force executed their missions, one could say almost suicidal, against an enemy with technology several decades ahead from ours. Falklands prove many things to the British, and it was a well needed political boost at the time. First real combat of the Harrier and the Sidewinder missile. It was a testbed to a lot of technology. A great example of how a good chain of command, efficient logistics, and trained officers can overcome great challenges leading. their troops to victory. My deepest respect for all the professionals who lost their lives and the ones who survived, on both sides.

Well thankyou very much for your respectful and genuinely polite and pleasant comment there, frankly I was expecting a lot more idiotic comments from Argentines who either can't accept they lost or DO but choose to ignore it or place the blame on just about anyone else except themselves. As it is I agree it shouldn't have happened but in an odd way, despite all the death and destruction it did have good outcomes as well as bad, after all if it HADN'T happened Britain wouldn't have gotten the boost to her national pride and would still be a second-rate fallen former empire instead of the small but advanced and important world-player she still is, Brexit or no Brexit, and Argentina would likely still be under the boot of the same mass-murdering fascist military junta she was at the time due to them never having been given the kick up the arse that was that war

I was in a fatigue party, dispatched in late 1982 to clear the airfield, under the command of a Small Arms School Corps (SASC) officer. We found that the majority of the wrecked aircraft were sunk up to their wheel axles in the mud - it was a grass airfield, so don't know if they'd have been able to take off - but that doesn't diminish the professionalism and bravery of the SAS lads who carried out the op. A couple of fairly intact Pucara aircraft were left for later recovery (think one is at the Fleet Air Arm Museum at Yeovilton), and we rolled, heaved and pushed the remainder into the sea, down the rather precarious cliff which bordered the airstrip. Interesting times, a lifetime ago....

I met the Royal Marines just back from the Falklands in Naples Italy 1982. HMS Fearless and Niad docked right behind us so we saw each other daily for a couple days. They were pretty beat up as was their ships riddled with shell holes. They told us some horrific stories and lost alot of Marines. I remember thinking, man I'm glad we won't be doing anything crazy like these guys. I'd be in Beirut in a few weeks little did I know

It was also an inspiration to President Reagan, when he saw what it did for Thatchers ratings and her impressive win in the following general election, President Reagan decided to invade Grenada. Much to the annoyance by the way of Mrs Thatcher and the queen given the fact that it is a British Protectorate and and the president didn't even communicate with the British foreign office.
@dreadgod81
@dreadgod81 4 года назад
@@guywilloughby3383 That's a bit debatable, but more particularly there's no chance that it made a functional difference in the decision. (Perhaps made Reagan feel better about the idea? Possible. Persuaded him to say yes or no? Definitely not.) Remember this was shortly after the Iran Hostage Crisis, a crisis that Reagan's administration used to their advantage to win against Carter by a large margin. ANY failure to defend Americans at risk would be political suicide for an administration in that position. Add to that factors like explicit requests from the OAS to intervene, an honestly legitimate level of concern about American civilians in the area (at least to some extent. their actual danger level was quite low), the historical concept of the "Monroe Doctrine", a general desire to prove America would react boldly against Communist encroachment, and quite a few other things... well, add that all up and absolutely regardless of the Falklands the Grenada campaign WAS going to happen. In short I disagree with your basic thesis. There were too many overriding and major reasons why Grenada would happen anyway. Thatcher's experience in the Falklands was a trivial matter compared to all that.

'Most people spend their time applauding the SEALs or other American units, but the major British special forces, such as the Special Air Service and the Special Boat Service, not only predated American special forces, but also inspired many of them to be what they are today. Without the inspiration of the SAS, a regiment known for one of the most grueling selection trials in the world, we likely wouldn’t have most of the modern special forces around the world that we have today.'

All of this was happening as I turned 21. I watched the nightly news thinking these young men were the same age as me. I questioned if I would be able to do what they did for Queen and country. Years later I joined the army in artillery and I did 21 years service with 2 deployments. I would never have been good enough to join the SAS or Commandos but I do have immense respect for those that do. Late in my career we had a Falkland War veteran (3 Para) post to our Regiment. He was one tough bastard, just what is required in a soldier.

I believe you are referring to the Black Buck raids. However, my understanding is that those were all against Port Stanley, not Pebble Island. You are correct though, they were, at almost 6600 miles, indeed the longest distance air raid ever undertaken at that time. Only surpassed by the October 2001 bomb run when B-2s from Whitman flew almost 10,000 miles and 44 hours to strike targets in Afghanistan.

you should learn about Argentina's claim over the Malvinas and islands of the South Atlantic then. After 1982 we weren't going to be able to maintain the claim legally, because countries can't reclaim territory they haven't possesed in 100 years, and the islands were invaded in 1883 by the British. We went to war for our nation's pride. At least we can talk so we can make a deal until 2083. Or it will be war again.

The military junta had convinced themselves that democracies were inherently weak and spineless, and some of Thatcher's previous decisions reinforced this view. They didn't expect to have to fight a serious war, so they viewed whether or not they could win one as irrelevant.

Matt Reds, that’s totally disingenuous, because the very first people that ever settled in the Falklands, were British(but there’s claims that the french were there too at the same time in the 1600’s), and the Spanish invaded and removed the original settlers... And then after we went to war with Spain and we beat them, so we made the reparations from Spain include the fact that we got the Falklands back, in perpetuity, and this was ratified later on..... So because all of this happened before argentina ever existed, you have no legal claim whatsoever, and you never will have, no matter what your hawks say........
