The real shame is that many soldiers perished for their country only because someone decided that an action was needed to distract people's attention from the internal affairs. The RN and the Argentinian Navy guys did what they had to do. In General Belgrano only the military government of Argentina should have gone down with it by then, not so many young sailors who were just doing their duty:down:

Fair point :yep:
IIRC the USA warned them not to invade stating that it was almost a certainty that Britain would react militarily :yep:
