kind of like o'Reilly said he was in the trenches with the troops during the Falklands war . except number one there were no trenches used in the Falklands war . it was a naval engagement ! and two we didn't have any troops in that war . not to mention three the British kept the press as far away from any conflict as possible . so gee i wonder if ole bill was stretching the truth once again !
