British forces in Iraq and Afghanistan should draw inspiration from victory in the Falklands, Baroness Thatcher said today in a rare public message.

Lady Thatcher drew a parallel between the Falklands and current conflicts in a brief radio message to mark the 25th anniversary of the 10-day war with Argentina that sealed her dominance of British politics.



Note-

Falklands War
- Date 2 April 1982 – 14 June 1982

777 wounded


Iraq War-

Yep Maggie, I can see that.



"Remember the Falklands!!!"
