It was such a weird thing to see a "war" between basically two Western European populated nations in the late 20th century.

There was an odd sort of quaintness to the whole deal, even looking back on it.

Meh, aspects of it were pretty brutal. Like for the sailors aboard the General Belgrano or the Sheffield. Or for the Welsh Guards during their landing.

England today is more focused on such pressing concerns as sensible kitchen knife safety reform.

In another 40 years progressive military outfits will probably disallow guns.
