In this episode we discuss the Falklands War of 1982. We find there is a lot to talk about from nuclear submarines, logistics, the Labour Party, how the British won when they were outnumbered, Bluff Cove and the Harrier, to the Black Buck raids and how a year later we were all almost engulfed in nuclear armaggedon.
By the way, the Admiral who convinced Thatcher to fight was Henry Leach.
