Myth 1: Command?
Myth 2: Maggie?
Myth 3: Imperialism?
Myth 4: Friends in High Places?Dan Hardie has a piece on the “Unlearned Lessons” of the Falklands War
Warship: International Fleet Review has links up to a couple of older pieces about the war, although you have to buy the magazine to read the whole thing.

Notes 1
Notes 2McClatchy has a bit more on the perception of the war in Argentina.

Rogue Gunner, a veteran of the war, has plenty of nifty
stuff.
I’m sure that there’s more; if anyone has a good link, e-mail or leave it in comments.
