At the time, there was joke about this - when the Argentines invaded Port Stanley they saw a lone Royal Marine on a hill, the Argentine commander ordered 50 troops to capture the marine, they were sent over the hill but the next day none had returned.

So the Argentine commander sent 500 troops over the hill, next day one Argentine soldier came running down the hill shouting, its a trap, its a trap - his commander asked him how is it a trap? The soldier said " there are 2 Marines up there!!
