It depends how corrupt a nation is

Having been there as part of the Royal Marine group this was the first time I have watched any film about the campaign. Lie many of the comments later I too feel the sense of outrage for the loss of life caused by political incompetence. The feelings you have at each stage of the campaign were well documented, what was not so clear was the fact that the force only knew what was going on from the BBC radio bulletins! The emotional feelings when it was over were challenging, and the trip back on Canberra did give us the opportunity to readjust to a point , but the reunion with families and the public was not easy with such mixed feelings. The opening 10mminutes of Saving Private Ryan are the closest anyone else might get to appreciate what it means to be in the sort of actions in the Falklands. As Chris Keeble pointedly said, war is never a good choice, everyone looses - no mater which side you are on. Having said that I was proud of the RM's and to be a part of them.

I didn’t sleep much I was thinking about the Falklands, and of course nuclear war was always in your mind as a kid . I still feel pride of what the British forces did, and even facture But the politicians should never have let it get to that stage .

We had just come off the Iran Hostage debacle. The Soviets invaded Afghanistan knowing our ability to project power was severely weakened.

This has to be the best war documentary ever made. It puts so many things into perspective. Hearing both sides of the story and the respect shown by both sides is truly admirable, just because they were there to achieve their goals didn't mean they needed to disrespect their adversaries. It reminds me of all those people who have died for my freedoms, my ability to have my own house, sleep in a comfortable bed, something many will never be able to experience again. War is not fun, it is not glorious, it is a sometimes necessary evil for the ability of people like me to live a normal life. Il be the first to admit as a grown man this brought me to tears, I have personally been going though some serious mental health issues, having been very close to killing myself only to be saved by my friends, seeing what these men had to go through puts all my problems into perspective, it both gives me hope things can be better and shows me things could be much worse. It also reminds me of the war in Ukraine, such a pointless and senseless war, the Ukrainians will not... can not allow such barbarism and the destruction of all they hold dear within their land. To all those out there who have or are currently experiencing war and also those dealing with mental health issues I wish you all godspeed and to remember that everything you have and everything you will ever have is what you are fighting for, never give up!

Great documentary, the first hand accounts on both sides is just amazing, this was very well done.

I wish that I could have just taken Dorothy Foulkes and given her a huge hug and a "thank you" for her contribution. I'm sad to see that she passed away in 2003. Life is so very temporary and she was, to me, a true gem.

Impressive documentary, so well done showing both sides! How do people go on living after war, that's the terrible thing. My grandfather fought for England in WWI, and lived all his life with PTSD, which didn't have a name then. He always remembered the comradeship, it seemed as though those were the best days of his life, in a way. And the worst. He never spoke of the terrible things, just the good to us, his grandchildren. Some years before the Faulkland war, in the 70s, Argentina nearly went to war with Chile, after three islands they claimed to be theirs. At the time, we chileans weren't prepared for an invasion. Luckily, pope John Paul intervened, but troops were moved to the south and lay waiting in trenches for the invasion. At the time Argentina and Chile had military in power.

Excellent viewing providing an invaluable insight into both sides of the conflict

This was fantastic, especially from the perspective of a bilingual person like myself. The interviews and statements from all involved on either side were spot on and very emotional. I must say that for years I'v always been taught or heard that Argentina was defeated with almost no resistance or fight in return. I beg to differ. For a nation or military that never experienced war, they fought & flew rather well delivering some brutal shots to her majesty's forces. It was certainly not a walk in the park for the British. Kudos to the exceptional treatment, medical care, and overall respect for the injured, captured and fallen by the British. Excellent form. Thanks very much for the documentary.

I couldn't agree with you more on most of your points. However, it is not totally accurate to state that Argentina "never experienced war". It would be more accurate to state that Argentina had not experienced "recent wars" (unless you consider bloody coup d'etats as "wars", like the bombing of Buenos Aires in 1955). Argentina experienced many wars, against Spain, which liberated Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, Paraguay, Bolivia and Peru (wars that were initiated by the liberator Juan Jose de San Martin, and only "finished" by Simon Bolivar), wars against Paraguay, wars against Brazil, and wars against several British invasions. I should also mention that Argentina was victorious in all those past wars.

The reason for this is the vast majority of the land forces didn't walk across East Falkland. 2 units did walk all the way (3 Para and 45 Commando RM). 2 Para walked from San Carlos to Goose Green, and then moved forwards to Fitzroy by Helicopter (and their movement to the jump off point for the second battle they fought was also by air lift). 42 Commando RM flew direct to Mount Kent by Helicopter. Gurkhas walked from San Carlos to Goose Green and after doing foot patrols around the southern half of East Falkland, move to Fitzroy by Sea. Scots and Welsh Guards moved forward to Fitzroy by Sea Lift. 40 Commando RM went all the way east by Helicopter. The two units that did walk all the way actually suffered a lot of casualties doing it , either from exposure or injuries from walking over broken ground.

The loss of Sir Galahad and Sir Tristram removed two of the LSL's, which meant that sea lifting them was impossible as well. There was literally no other choice after that BUT to walk. At least for 3 Para and 45 Commando.

I agree with the tone of this documentary. War is a waste of human energy. That being said, they really didn't give enough perspective from the British people living on the Island. How they felt.

*This massive discrepancy exists even though there is no gender bias in the law favouring females. Whether you like it or not, the welfare system forces you as a man to pay for single women, many of whom, as you know, are degenerates.* Without welfare and all kinds of affirmative action promoting women in the workplace, women can't support themselves. The feminist welfare state just distributes the burden of taking care of women to all working men. So you, as a man, have the burden of financially supporting these women without any benefit in return, women who will berate you and call you an incel if you disagree with how stunning and brave they are. Western liberalism forces you as a man to fund the lifestyle of women drinking, sleeping around with a new man every night, popping anti-depressants like candy, and going to the women's march on weekends to whine about how oppressed they are. You're subsidizing all that. Women being free is not free. Someone has to foot the bill. / *Islam says, no. No one gets a free ride. If you want to be taken care of, you have to be in a marriage as an obedient wife. And if you don't want to be an obedient wife, go be a burden on your father, who didn't raise you right. And if you don't want to live under your father's roof, go live in the wilderness or beg on the streets. See how long you last there.*

British arrogance, which was also displayed at Hong Kong and the sinking of the Repulse and Prince Of Wales.

Damn, that last line of the documentary by the mother almost brought me to tears.

war at its most potent. its best and its worst. We should remember her words...

I am watching and writing this in 2022. I searched this out, in light of the Russian war on Ukraine. This documentary is abrilliant, balanced and thoughtful account over the Falklands/Malvinas war. It was an insane occurance that never should have happened. Trying to understand and make any sort of sense of these two wars, is very difficult. Yet the fact is, people are killed by other people in these wars, so trying to make sense of it is a necessety. The only sense I can make, is NEVER start a war. Try everything else, and be extremely patient. A resolve may take decades, and the underlying driving issues may change, or even become irrelevant. Like I can hardly see the French and German ever going to war at each other again. The construct devised to prevent such a war, that eventually became the EU, was very clever thinking, replacing a fourth war. (1870's, The Great War and WWII) I am disturbed by the fact that not even I myself, can recollect the names of the German and French men who came up with this brilliant peacekeeping construct, "The Carbon and Steel Union". It seems memory and history telling favours people acting in war, not peace. It is almost like we are all collectively telling political leaders, that if you want to enter a mark in our history telling, you need to start a war. All that sayed, there will sadly always be people in power somewhere, that will start a war. So sadly, we need to prepare for this type of complete breakdown of human endeavour.

I was about 8 when this occurred. I remember being fascinated by the whole thing. I didn't understand it, but was completely taken in.

An excellent documentary. I feel sorry for all those who were killed, on both sides. Very sad for the families who lost loved ones.

its true. Very sorry for the people of the falklands. Not one of them now, or in history, had any connection to Argentina. It was a complete assault on the people. Argentina has moved on, hopefully, as they know it was not nor will it ever be (the falklands) part of their country

mmcca478 sadly they still claim the islands and although they’re in no shape military to do anything now it’s thought that in a decade or two they might be strong enough to pose a threat to the islands again. But don’t worry that’s a worse case scenario. Right now. Their ships can’t make it out of port without sinking

@@iam-awsome8127 a war in these days isn't a viable option for argentina, even if they have the power to do it. Going in a war again will close the gates of the country to the world like 1982. And i can assure you it won't happen again. Argentina is claiming the islands peacefully and it will remain like that.

Have you seen the monument in Port Stanley? It says "To the memory of those liberated us".

Argentines thought they had German or Japanese warriorship but they realized they had the Italian attitude of bragging warriorship at the beginning of the combat and leaving in the middle of it.

If you know someone who was involved for the UK in the Falklands War, please let them know that in the KZread comments section (and on the internet in general) there is huge gratitude and amazement for what they did. I was only 3 yrs old in 1982 and I’m now binge watching videos about it all. The sacrifice that our armed forces made was immense and it will NEVER be forgotten.

I was 12 when this war took place, I remember it on the news every night here in Australia. I joined the Australian Army in 91' and one of my first platoon sergeants was a Falklands vet...respect to you all...RIP to all those on both sides that didn't come home. You all did what you were asked to do. Marc

At least the enemy was Argentina, because if the war were another country in the region like Brazil, the Enemy would not be students, doctors, lawyers, the enemy would be Death Squads financed by Evangelical Millionaires.

I have watched this documentary several times and continue to find it extremely interesting.

Sumed up by the the comment from the widow at the end. Pride. Those guys from both sides went through horrific experiences for the sake of two proud nations.. War is truly horrific.. My heart goes out to the soldiers that fought, lost their lives, injured physically and mentally and the families who also lost their sons, brothers grandchildren relatives.. ❤️❤️❤️❤️💔💔💔💔💔

Argentina invaded British territory entirely unprovoked. They alone are responsible for the war.

I'd like to tell the lady at the end that we do know the price that she and all the other families paid for our national pride. They paid the heaviest price possible and we are all grateful to them.
