Russ I don't think me being an ex-weapons tech has anything to do with my attitude apart from understanding equipment is what keeps the army moving, fighting and winning.... 1982 wasn't a war it was a skirmish, we took a few shots from them then walked all over them. Most importantly we learned from our mistakes hence Mount Pleasant exists, hence there's 4 typhoons on the island and hence with the first moans by the argies we've got a type 45 deployed there..

It's just all common sense looking at everything.. not only the army numbers but also the other factors (equipment, training, moral, logistics) which you have to take into consideration which certain people seem to be blinkered to..
