- W2476603180 abstract "On the evening of 31 March 1982 Prime Minister Thatcher was told by her Secretary of State for Defence John Nott that the Argentine fleet appeared to be on its way to attack the Falkland Islands, which were defended by a handful of Royal Marines, and that the islands could not, once fallen, be retaken. However, when the First Sea Lord Admiral Henry Leach finally reached the meeting, he informed the Prime Minister that a task force led by two aircraft carriers could be readied within 48 hours and that, if lost, the islands could be retaken, though at the cost of several ships. Apart from the failure of Intelligence and of coordination between departments before the Argentine attack,1 the absence of the Chief of Defence Staff, who was in New Zealand, and the division of opinion between the Secretary of State and the First Sea Lord, the governmental system worked as most people would expect it to work. The Prime Minister wanted to recapture the islands, the senior military officer most directly involved informed her what was militarily practical and what the costs might be. The cabinet had then to decide whether to fight or whether the potential losses were too great, and Parliament confirmed the decision, though it could hardly be informed of the professional advice on the likely costs.2 Many people would imagine this was how the governmental system normally worked." @default.
