Roughly how long did it take for the French to cease all technical support to Argentina for the Exocet cruise missiles? Fortunately that b****** Galtieri only had 5 at his disposal otherwise he could have done a lot worse to our fleet than he did.
Well, the French team remained in Argentina a couple of weeks after the seizure of the islands. According to COAN (Navy Aviation) people, they were willing to help and finish their work.

Also, it is now NOT a secret that a German Euromissile technician flew to the islands on early May (with the blockade very active), fixed the Roland SAM and went back.

And, sure, I donīt like Galtieri. In fact, I donīt know any Argentine who likes Galtieri.

PS: Thanks Courtney!
