@MrRagingbovine I don't dispute your statement, but it would be interesting to read a study of opinion polls that back up your statements. As far as I am aware, there has - as of yet - been no referendum of the residents of Malvinas/Falkland Islands as to their feelings regarding Independence vs. British Sovereignty vs. Argentinian Sovereignty. If such a referendum were held entailing these THREE options, then the result should be definitive & the territorial dispute over.

@musicalidea well the people who lived in the falklands actually ask for the uks help when Argentina invaded them.

@texasrangersr1 : Also, units known as 'Rangers' or variations thereof have existed at various points in American history, predating even the revolutionary war. However, its just a common nomenclature and there's been no single regiment, Corps or wing of the army by the name 'Rangers' that has a contiguous history dating so far back. The US Army Rangers of today may carry the legacy of various ranger units of old, but only for the reason of sharing the name.

@texasrangersr1 :

As for the Green Berets, Lecce is correct and so are you. They were first given the green berets by the british commandos who trained them, but that headgear wasn't a part of their official uniform till Kennedy gave permission for the beret to be a part of their regular uniform

@texasrangersr1 They may all have their own origins and regimental histories and leather-bound collection of odes and ballads and what not. Nobody's disputing any of that. What LecceDiPane is pointing out is that SAS and SBS are the originators of most of what we know as special warfare and small unit tactics.
