The Argentine military has an imagine problem at the moment due to some very unprofessional behavior by junior officers during the Falklans campaign. Think how much of an uproar we would have in the States if combined civilian / military enquirees were to find clear substantiated instances of joes dieing as a direct result of negligence and abuse. Refusing to properly feed a soldier and then when he is caught "stealing" food, staking him to the ground naked and leaving him to die of exposure is not something easliy forgotten. Just one off many instances. They need to deflect the negative attention on to the evil Brits. Or maybe it is all about the Benjamins.
