I remember seeing a copy of a British tabloid a couple days after the Belgrano went down. The headline was "GOTCHA!" Unfortunately, a couple of days later, HMS Sheffield was hit by an EXOCET missile and herself went down.

I got to Buenos Aires in 1986 and was working with the Defense Attache, who himself had recently arrived. He told me that the Argentine officers who had trained in the US, lined up in front of our embassy and tossed their US decorations, diplomas and certificates over the fence. Unlike John Kerry, theirs were their own. They were very displeased with US for "tilting" toward the UK in this conflict.

The night before I PCSd out of there in Jun 1989, I was in the hotel bar with some young Argentines. When they figured out by my atricious accent that I was a Yanqui, they wanted to now why we didn't support our hemispheric ally, I asked them how many Argentine regiments went ashore with us at Normandy or how many Argie regiments were alongside the Brits and us in Korea. It shut them up.

And how many Nazi war criminals did the Argies harbor?

Not only that, but the Argentinians were very sympathetic to the nazi cause. Screw ‘em.
