PN,

I think that we can confirm that Reydel's posts that the BB missions definitely did damage the morale of those Argentinian troops ivo Stanley - as we have all either suspected or supposed. This is of course logical as being bombed isn't nice. (Very interesting to hear from the receiving end and particulalry the comparison with NGS.)

I don't think we can state the effect was strategic because the reduction in morale might be geographically limited. Whilst maintenance of morale is a principle of war can it not be a tactical issue vice strategic?

What do you think?
