that they hit anything is amazing.
Fortunately for the UK the Argie Army and Navy didn't have the balls the
Argie Air Force had.

They had the balls alright, they just didn't have the leadership.

Leadership for an airforce fighting a single entity isn't that
difficult, you just load up the weapons and send your young men out to
die.

With an army or a navy you need slightly more intelligence.

The Argentine army and navy had spent the past decade fighting highly
dangerous intellectuals and,, now and again, a lethal trade union
official or even a journalist armed with highly explosive printing
presses.

When they came up against people with guns they were in real trouble
because they weren't used to people who could shoot back.
