Am I the only one looking at social media, the World Cup, and the 1982 Falklands Conflict, and thinking that the world has lost its mind. Over 900 men never returned home to their families, 255 of them British.

Scots Guardsmen photographed at Fitzroy after the Battle of Mount Tumbledown, one of the toughest battles of the Falklands War.
Respect to every one of them. 🇬🇧

Tonight 13/14 June, it will be exactly 44 years since the 2nd Battalion Scots Guards fought bravely through the night to take Tumbledown mountain in the final battle of the Falklands war.
WE WILL REMEMBER THEM - 🫡🇬🇧

Great to see so many Falklands veterans on parade this morning to mark Remembrance Sunday. We will always be incredibly grateful to all those who sacrificed so much to liberate the Falkland Islands in 1982. #Falklands #WeWillRememberThem #RemembranceSunday 🇫🇰🇬🇧

Officially an Amazon best seller - in “Naval History” at least - get your copy to see what all the fuss is about … and learn about the infamous “U-Boat Stink”! #WOLFPACK
Non-stop reading weekend ahead, when 2 long awaited books arrive at once! @Roger_Moorhouse #wolfpack and Ben Barry’s tale of woe that is state of the modern @BritishArmy
Huge thanks to RHQ @scots_guards for gathering #falklands veterans for the handover of a copy of my @UniOfBuckingham MA dissertation on the battle for Tumbledown…huge privilege
Fantastic talk by the engaging @BenMacintyre1 discussing his book on Op Nimrod, The Siege. Pretty much a sell out in the amazing setting of the Cathedral, well done to @HerefordFest!
Great to be at the kick off of the inaugural @HerefordFest, a wealth of brilliant speakers in the beautiful surroundings of Hereford

For Veterans Day on @schoolofwarpod, an interview with 99 year old Holocaust survivor-turned-Nazi hunter Frank Cohn. His life story is incredible. In the clip here, Frank discusses discovering Jews in hiding during the liberation of Cologne. Full episode: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…
Hugely enjoyed @sauldavid66 Battleground pod on the #falklands war. In Ep 16, Patrick speculated why the UK did not invoke NATO Art 5, unlike the US after 9/11, the answer is in fact in the NATO treaty
