  1. ​​ @Spearca 1982. Britain asked for help after Argentina invaded the Falklands. Belgium refused to provide us with weapons and France refused to give Britain the codes to deactivate the missiles France sold Argentina. Thatcher had to force the French president to give her the codes by telling 9:28 Secretary of State and the US ambassador to the UN both urged President Reagan to refuse to help the UK. But the Secretary of Defence and junior State Dept officials wanted to help Britain. In the end they hatched a plan... Accession Island has two military bases - a larger British one and a smaller American one. The DoD quietly asked Britain what it needed and had everything delivered to warehouse on Accession. When the Task Force arrived it got take anything it paid for.
