"I trained with them once or twice, they had a serious attitude about business."

I trained a couple times with their Ghurka allies. They were tough little dudes. I think Britian could send them to the Falklands and they could take care of any problems that could arise.

One curious aspect of the war was that a lot of damage done to the Brits by the Argentinians came from Exocet missles, sold by the Brits to the Argentinians.

The Exocet missile is French.
