    I was 8.. and in total awe.of the SAS after watching this on the Tele. I don't know if the SAS know or are told enough but us (the British public) are immensely proud and grateful for your bravery and sacrifice..

      Why? What does it mean to be British? Define it. Why would you be proud because of the actions of other people who you don’t know?

    I remember watching this i was 14. Going to school next day it was all everyone was talking about. Most had never heard of the SAS. I spoke to a teacher that my elder brother had not long done a years stint in the Falklands:
    'Where'? She said.
    Just off Argentina i replied!
    'Oh' she said.
    My brother is in the SBS (raiding squad) i told her proudly.
    'Who'? She replied!
    The rest they say is history.
