Argentinian A-4 Skyhawks fly at wave top level while under fire as they make their bombing runs against British ships off of San Carlos during the Falklands Island War in 1982. These guys had absolute balls of steel.

Low-Flying Argentine Jets vs Royal Navy Ships (1982) During the Battle of San Carlos in the Falklands War, Argentine A-4 Skyhawks and IAI Daggers launched repeated low-level attacks against the British Task Force, skimming just above the water to evade radar and shipboard air defenses. Nicknamed "Bomb Alley," San Carlos Bay became the scene of intense air-sea combat as Royal Navy warships answered with heavy anti-aircraft fire and surface-to-air missiles.

Footage shows low-flying Argentine Skyhawks and Daggers attacking British vessels in San Carlos Water as 3 Commando Brigade is disembarked to retake the Falklands. The aircraft can be seen passing over one of the two Fearless-class LPDs involved in the landings, which is firing a Seacat SAM. It is unclear whether the missile is responsible for the recorded ‘kill’, as the Seacat had a poor performance record during the conflict. Off Port San Carlos, the British faced intense attacks from Argentine land-based aircraft, which repeatedly strafed Royal Navy ships. The ferocity of these raids earned San Carlos Water the nickname “Bomb Alley”. It was later regarded as a tactical miscalculation that Argentine pilots focused their efforts on the ships rather than the landing craft and troops; by 25 May, the British had already established a strong force of elite professionals on East Falkland, enabling them to retake Port Stanley roughly three weeks later. The Argentine pilots were widely praised for their courage during these attacks, in which they scored numerous hits on British vessels. Many of the bombs, however, were incorrectly fused and failed to detonate—thirteen struck ships without exploding. Not all Royal Navy vessels were so fortunate: HMS Ardent (21 May) and HMS Antelope (23 May) were both lost off Port San Carlos.

The opening game, and first goal of the 1982 World Cup was scored by Erwin Vandenbergh of Belgium in their 1-0 victory over World Champions Argentina. The match itself was not shown LIVE, or as highlights on British TV. ITV were allotted the game, but decided against showing it due to the ongoing Falklands War and fear of a public backlash. #WorldCup #Belgium #Argentina

“More people died in the prison ships than died in combat.” During the Revolutionary War, thousands of American Patriots were given a choice: abandon the cause or remain imprisoned under horrific conditions. Nearly 12,000 chose freedom, even when it cost them their lives. “You could give up the cause, and you would be allowed to return as a British citizen, but the people on these ships did not.” “They decided to hold to their cause, and they died for it.” “What we wanted to do is we wanted to memorialize these prisoners of war and show you what it was like to be inside the ship.” “On these reliefs, it’s the story of all of the prisoners.” “They’re suffering and dying in these horrid situations.” Matthew Taylor Artist

Ukrainain troops are literally running out of Kursk towards the Ukrainian border under heavy Russian fire. They flee past the corpses of their dead while their dying scream in agony These very same men laughed as they crossed the Russian border last August

James O’ Brian nails it again. For the record. The British military fought to retake the Falkland Islands in 1982 following an illegal Argentinian invasion. We went to war on our own and retook the islands i.e. we WON a real war which cost 255 British lives, with 755 wounded. It lasted 77 days. THAT’S WHAT WINNING LOOKS LIKE. How many wars have the US won? So when Wun Dum Fuc wants to take a look at the British claim to the Falklands out of spite because we don’t support his failed war of choice, I have one thing to say FUCK OFF DRAFT DODGER 🎥 TikTok -

Greta Thunberg says she is “not scared of Israel” as she sails to Gaza while claiming her flotilla has seen “numerous escalated attacks.” “Drones have been dropping explosions, chemicals and unidentified objects.” Despite Thunberg claiming the ships have had been under drone attack, Tunisian authorities previously revealed a cigarette was the likely cause of a fire onboard one of the ships as they were docked in Tunis.

These are LP members of the Abia State House of Assembly, the people whom the so-called Obi wave brought into power. Look at them; they appear as though they have lost their way. The Speaker even said, “National House of Assembly.”😭😭 Obidients should know that this ‘Obi Wave’ won’t happen again. I repeat, the 2023 top-to-bottom that brought many of these charlatans to power was an absolute disaster.

🇮🇷| WATCH: Never-seen-before footage from the 12-day war against Israel During an interview with IRGC missile launch crewmen, they retell a story on how they launched missiles against Israel while being under fire from Zionists. The crewman says during a wave of missile launches, the Israelis had targeted a TEL (missile launcher) that was ready to shoot. This caused the missile to explode causing for fragmented explosions, causing the injury of the crewman (the same one who’s speaking in the interview). The next crewman, responsible for a different launcher few meters away, sees a fragment of the missile heading towards himself. He says he quickly ducked on the ground and saw the fragment fly over him, where the heat caused burning injuries. This however didn’t stop him, he quickly ran to his TEL and launched his missile, which was successful. 4 other missiles were launched from the same spot, and all 4 hit their inteded targets with pinpoint accuracy.

He married the love of his life. Just weeks later, he went to war. Lance Corporal Nigel Robert Smith of 2 PARA married Wendy on 3 April 1982. Less than a month later, he deployed to the Falklands with the British Task Force. They never had a honeymoon. On 28 May 1982, during the Battle of Goose Green, Nigel was killed while advancing with D Company after what appeared to be an Argentine surrender turned into a deadly burst of gunfire. He was just 21 years old. For Britain, Goose Green was a historic victory. For Wendy, it was the end of a marriage that had lasted only three weeks. Some sacrifices are measured not only in years of service, but in the future that was never lived 🌹🇬🇧

The moment the elites knew they needed a culture war to distract from the class war they were waging: At the height of the Occupy Wall Street movement after the 2008 financial crisis, when Americans were gaining an unprecedented level of class consciousness, the elites of Wall St. mocked the protesters by drinking champagne while sneering at the crowds of protesters. However, they didn’t have hubris, they knew that millions of Americans had realised that the system was rigged against them; while Wall Street got Obama’s bailouts for wrecking the economy, which only enriched them even more… Millions of Americans lost their homes, their savings, and their dreams, with no bailouts from the government to help them with the disaster they faced. Millions of Americans realised the state was nothing but a managing organisation for the elite class, and the system was rigged against them. The answer to the working class realising that a class war was being waged against them? Give them a distraction culture war instead, to pit people from the same class against each other with vitriolic hatred while the elites hoarded even more wealth under their noses. The wealthiest 1% of households now control 31.7% of the nation’s wealth, the bottom 50% of Americans own just 2.5% of the nation’s wealth. The average conservative in a rust belt small town has more in common economically with a working class liberal in New York… But the billionaire-owned media pits them against each other with culture war issues and has them hating each other, while the elites continue to drink their champagne and laugh, as their share of wealth grows exponentially.

While these weren´t state-of-the-art by 1982, and with some technical limitations (range, unexploding bombs) they were a great threat to the UK during the conflict. And one thing was sure: their pilots were brave and skilled, as seen here

9 years ago today, Arsenal lost their first game in 4 months, as they lost 2-1 away at Everton; missing out on the chance to go top of the Premier League. Unfortunately, this one defeat spiralled into a 5 year decline, as Arsenal never recovered & narrowly finished outside of the top 4 for the first time in 21 years. Arsenal didn’t qualify for the Champions League for another 6 years during which, had 4 different managers & finished as low as 8th.

Marco Rubio on Iran: It's pretty clear that at the outset of hostilities in the conflict, they had delegated decision-making to field commanders. And so oftentimes, field commanders had delegated authority to act on, let's say, pre-operational planning that had already been put in place. And so, unlike our system, where perhaps the president, the secretary of war, or the chairman of the Joint Chiefs is directly making orders and decisions, in their system a lot of decision-making at the tactical level—like which ships to hit and so forth—is being made at the commander level.

During the War of 1812, two US Navy ships flew this flag going into battle - USS Essex and Chesapeake. Ironically, both ships were captured by the British. The genesis of the flag came from the British impressment of 6,000 sailors off American ships during the Napoleonic Wars. The US had previously fought wars for Freedom of the Seas against the Barbary States and France. We would go on and fight wars for Freedom of the Seas in two world wars and lead to American involvement in the Middle East with the Tanker War of 1987-88. I think President Trump fails to understand that we have historically fought pirates and should not emualte them. Pirates defy the rule of law. Hence, the US should ratify UN Convention on the Law of the Sea and set the standard on the world's oceans.

The largest balloon curtain in history ringed London with nearly 2,000 barrage balloons during World War II as the British countered German V1 flying bombs. Tethered with steel cables these balloons floated as high as 5,000 feet snagging 231 doodlebugs ripping wings or detonating them early despite some V1s having cable cutters. They formed the last line of defense. 🫡

Two Soviet soldiers reunited in 1983, decades after the Second World War. These men fought side by side at Stalingrad, the bloodiest battle in human history. They saw the worst of the battle. Their platoon was assigned the defense of a strategic building in Stalingrad dubbed “Pavlov’s House”. They took their position on September 27th, 1942 with a force of about 40 men. They fought together in desperation against a nearly overwhelming German force. They were finally relieved of their position on November 25th, 1942, after nearly two months of holding the position; only 4 out of the original 40 had survived the siege.

WWII-era shipwrecks are emerging for the first time in years, as one of Europe's biggest rivers dries up. Months of heatwaves have left the Danube River at a critically low level, revealing Nazi warships, ancient animal fossils and other relics of history. In Serbia, at least 20 German ships that were intentionally scuttled during the war can be seen from the banks of Prahovo, a village located on the river. While some of the ships had been previously removed by the Communist Yugoslav authorities, many remained due to the dangerous explosives onboard. And in Bulgaria, some residents discovered the bones of a woolly mammoth. The animals coexisted with ancient humans and were hunted for food, tusks and bones before they went extinct.
