  1. i've seen this video 3 times already and Captain Eric Winkle Brown is an amazing historic character, who lived to be 97 years old which is in itself miracle considering what he lived through. Aside from that, God blessed him to be maybe the greatest test pilot who had ever lived. he had an amazing talent, and presents of mind to do what seemed to be impossible. His memory deserves our honor, respect and gratitude.

  2. Great Britain was and still is world power, Argentina will never be in a world power like Britain. Britain let its guard down a bit and Argentina took the Falklands. Britain took Falklands back in a deliberate way that was as civilized as war can be. Britain paid the price for victory with blood and treasure, because Great Britain is a world power.

  3. The British made the first recorded landing on Falkanland Island in 1690. A French settlement was established 1764 and an English settlement established in 1766, in two separate locations. The French surrendered it's claim to Spain. The Falklands has been under British rule since 1832 and for 177 years it been a British Crown Colony. And Argentina (a former Spanish colony) doesn't approve of the British claim of the Falklands.

  4. Argentina doesn't have legitimate claim on the Falkland Islands just because the Spanish had a fort there at one time, is dumb. Britain was there first, then the French and then Spain, 200 years ago the Royal Navy commanded all the Oceans of the world when it made the Falkland Islands a British Crown Colony.

  5. Britain didn't have to prove it was a world power, it was a historical fact that it was at one time. Argentina has never been a world power and had no business attacking the Falklands. All the Brits were doing is defending their land.
