Ok I'll bite Tigwas.....what the f**k are you smoking?
Which Falklands war did you watch? The ones where the Royal Marines stayed at home or the one where the Royal Marines and the Para's dominated most of the land battles and without whom the Islands would not have been recaptured. Have a bit of a read about the subject and you will find that a lot of the hard ground work and fighting (except for Goose Green) was undertaken by the Corps.
You may also want to read up on what 3Cdo Bde has been doing in Afganistan......I know poor dears, they have been soooo bored.
