Half way through the book below and come across a couple of details I was previously unaware of:
The Argentinian VII Brigada Aerea, Helicopteros Marinos had a British engineer , Malcolm Jones, working for them during the Falklands conflict on a South African passport.
What suprised me more was the piece that told of the Escuadron Fenix (a unit flying learjets and similar aircraft tasked with diversion operations, saturating British radars and attracting the Sea Harriers so that the attack escadrilles could reach their targets. It also led the combat escadrilles to the islands, using the VLF Omega navigation system, as well as providing radio relay, reconnaissance, SAR, fast transport, medical evacuation and coastal patrol capabilities)....there were two British citizens living in Argentina, one of them was Jimmy D Harvey, born in England and an ex-RAF pilot veteran of the Second World War and the other was Alan Withington, who flew late in the conflict and had also flown many missions with the RAF during the Second World War, although he had been born in Cordoba to a British family.
The above is not an attempt to provoke any arguments but simply a post on a topic I found to be interesting.
