alwayslooking up is indeed correct
Stu Mac was the toughest soldier that Ive ever met, and indeed it was the padre who discovered the "trophies" in his belt kit after his death. "Line em up Louis" was only one of two people ever interviewed under caution over the alleged shooting of prisoners, the other being Hew Pike, Gary (Louis) was moved to 1 Para following the war. As an aside, one SNCO was implicated when an Argie survivor told investigators that he had been "executed" by a soldier.. the SNCO in question was moving up a track under heavy fire when the body he stepped over proved to be very much alive as it started grabbing at his legs nd shouting in spanish.. The NCO was in the open and now he was getting the attention of both sides machine gunners, so he fired 2 or 3 rounds into the prostrate enemy to break away. Now you all know the power of an SLR. This guy took 3 rounds in the head at less that 4 feet and SURVIVED. Further reading if you can find it is in "Green eyed boys" by Adrian Weale, if still in print. The American mercenery story is repeated there, but casts doubt on its validity, suggesting the "Americans" were in fact Argentines with dual nationality.
Also Major Kearnan of C company? 3 Para was on exchange tour and was flatly refused when he requested to go south with the battalion. He was replaced before embarkation.
