why leave your enemy escape, get their act together, and then come back at you looking to kill you? Hitler should have gone into dunkirk faster and killed as many of the british as he could, he hesitated, they escaped and it was a big blow to the germans.
whether you are an argentinian soldier or a british one, you cannot really complain when the enemy tries to kill you, nor is it a tragedy when a soldier on any side gets killed, that's war.
