Comments by "Jammy Dodger" (@JammyDodger45) on "Small but mighty: Meet the 40-strong Falklands army" video.
Yawn ... the US gave practically no assistance so what's your point?

That's roughly 1 in 72 Islanders in uniform ... or about 30 times the ratio in the UK population.

They don't have the Falklands so that's not an issue.

It never was Argentinian so they can't "take it back".

@AntiWokeXyCitizen - - no it didn't. The fuel at Ascension was part of an already existing bi-party agreement where the UK and US 'took turns' in refilling the stocks. The US did back to back refills allowing the UK tankers to remain full. The sidewinders were an American order which was passed over to the UK in lieu of a later UK order (UK paid full price for them). No mortar munitions were supplied to the UK (and it would have been useless anyway since the 2 nations used different mortar sizes back in '82). The Department of Defense Audit Committee published a report in which it detailed all the aid given to the UK ... it amounted to gifting the UK some Satellite phones and supplying physical mapping. That's all. If you're going to try and be a YT tough guy the least you could do is also be correct. 🤡

@A-G-F- - no, it's the truth. The Falklands conflict is sensational enough as it is without having to make up additional dramatic details.
