Two things spring to mind. Firstly, it's only a matter of time before HMS Dragon takes her turn in militarising the South Atlantic. Secondly, isn't it nice to see the Andrew maintaining links with the second line troop carriers?

HMS Dragon the beautiful grey steely symbol of death.

If you're the enemy you know you're about to have a very, very bad day if you see a Type 45 making its way in your direction.

@3 “HMS Dragon the beautiful grey steely symbol of death”

Why don't you spend more money in saving people instead.

Aww poor marcos yet again cannot understand the differences between fact and a uneducated persons opinion.

But hey lets not get in the way of random ranting from our favourite special friend lol!

Another attempted slur that makes marcos the moron look even more ridiculous......

And he has the gall to ask '
Why don't you spend more money in saving people instead.'

Brave pilots,
Sadly accidents happen,

As for saving lives, we do very well at that,

Then again, if you had not illegally invaded the Falklands,
Think of the lives that could have been saved.

Peace ..
