The Harrier of Lt. Glover in Howard was shot down by Cpt. Ricardo Frecha of Commando Company 601 (special forces) with a Blowpipe. After that the chief of the company Mayor Castagneto and the medic officer of the company, Cpt. Llanos take him out of the water. In the same day at 15:15 pm another Harrier was hit with another Blowpipe shoted by corporal Martinez, but the crash was in East Falkland and it wasn´t confirmed by argentine troops. Amazing interview. Really emotive and as a argentine ex military i can only said, all my respects for him
Awesome interview! Riveting combat accounts, very sensitive and very delicately executed discussion of PTSD and the realities of war. Steve, you're a great interviewer - I love how you are comfortable with silence, and letting Mog take the time to express his story. You avoid the common mistake so many interviewers and podcast moderators have of having a prefixed agenda, and constantly interrupting interviewees with leading questions. Mog - you are an exceptional inspiring gentleman - thanks for your skill as a combat aviator, your humanity, your courage, and humility in sharing your experiences during and after the war.
Fantastic interview. It’s one thing watching a documentary on the Falklands. It really is another hearing from someone who actually was there in a combat role. I was moved by his bravery to speak of his PTSD and experiences. Thank you for this video and thank you Mog for your service.
When you suitably picture everything described as it happens, the lighting at the time, actions taking place, perceiving detail shrewdly; this becomes the most intense yet human situation I may ever hear
What an amazing gentleman. To endure all that, come out the other side and now after all the PTSD and still be able to sit there and talk about it is something special. I salute you Mog. Congratulations on getting to enjoy your retirement and thank you for all your years of service.
Absolutely fascinating, Nerves of steel and cool as a cucumber, thank you Mog. I've always thought what about the Sea Harrier guys. Shame Mog had to go through living so long with PTSD but glad he's feeling better. My Grandpa served in WW2 and I'm super proud of our hero's. Typing from Northern Ireland.
What an honest and enlightening interview on such sensitive topics. Also quite stunning regarding the relationship of the Captain of Hermes towards the RAF pilots.
Thank you very much for the interview to David Morgan, very well conducted. The questions you asked induced interesting and detailed answers with facts that I did not know. Greetings from Argentina.
As a 15 year old in 1982, I watch this conflict nightly on BBC. Mpg was a bit of an icon. So I found the interview fascinating and watched all 3 back to back. Fascinating that Mog nearly got relegated and stayed as a helicopter pilot over my home NI, that he got luck to fly GR3 in RAF, that he had almost zero air to air combat experience and almost no naval aviation experience, yet we know nothing of this. Fascinating and an inspiration. Also very interesting to hear of after effects of PTSD and for her flying career. Excellent interview.
Just wanter to thank you for this outstanding interview, such a pity for all the lives lost. As a sufferer I know PTSD is a recurring death of it’s own. War is hell.
Fantastic interview, truly humbling what these guys did and Mr Morgans honesty in this piece. Can't imagine the level of focus and reflexes required to down three helicopters, or two planes in a matter of seconds, while flying at the very limits of your vehicles capability, close enough to the enemy to actually knock them out of the sky with your wing vortices! Then having to fly back with not enough fuel and nail a rapid landing in the dark while not qualified for that duty! Genuinely heroic. Also interesting that the software for the new sidewinders was written on the fly and a bit buggy, that can't have made things any easier. The more I find out about the Falklands war the more I realize we only won due to the profesionalism and tactical superiority of our troops, if we had been a bit less good at soldiering in all it's many forms and the Argentinians had had better leadership we could easily have faced a military disaster and defeat, it's thanks to people like Dave Morgan that the taskforce prevailed.
During Falklands conflict, the Royal Navy lost 6 Sea Harriers (RIP 4 pilots), while another 4 Harrier GR-3 (no loss of pilots) were lost. Can't believe it's almost 40 years ago... Tempus Fugit !
Many thanks to Dave Morgan for giving this interview it's important for future generations to understand what happened during the conflict and post conflict given the mental health challenges. Glad to hear that he was able to manage his PTSD and that he was prepared to share that info. important that people understand the impact of war and why we need to look after our armed service personnel.
One afternoon I was at Bullford camp , I was about seven, I was with my dad who had equipment to pick up, school holiday I think, then out of the blue came a Harrier, definitely faster than the speed of sound, as that followed him, he buzzed the tower lol,...then I could hear the Harrier approach slowly and clearly he was practicing ship landings or just landings, any ways I got a right treat that afternoon, , I later was told of a conversation a few weeks later where my dad chatted to Gordy was it he was a test pilot my dad said,....i did get singed eyebrows, as he turned, he was in full control and spiked my interest in jets,. :later realising that he got killed,...many, many, years later , helicopters where so essential, and surely helped the British cause, .thanks guys,......and what a shame about the ejection seat getting damaged awesome information.
From many accounts, the Argentinian's the high command was very hesitant to send fighter escort as they were very worried about losing too many fighters, therefore leaving the mainland undefended. One must also take into account that they were quite worried about an attack from the Chilean side as they had just gone through very high tensions with the Chileans in the few years prior.
so interesting. I can tell there are a few points in your interviews that get unexpectedly emotional (paul metz). really genuine and its something you cant read from a book. i think the falklands war is a model for any future war in the pacific. probably the most modern conflict that had two sides so equally matched. Im pretty sure just like in the falklinds, a future pacific conflict will be fought on the improvised flight decks of containerships with f35b's thanks for uploading
I was looking for some videos on the Falklands/ Sea Harriers and found your Really great interview series with Mog. I'll definitely take a look at the rest of your videos.
Most ratings on aircraft center around speed. In actuality a fighter moving at 1,000 mph isn’t fighting aircraft. Speed is more for closing or running but not fighting. Most combat is at 400 to 500 mph so Harriers were fast enough for fighting when engaged. Even F15 don’t fight at high speeds unless attempting a long range shot where middle avoidance is mush easier. Same goes for ground attack I assume
VETERAN ROYAL SCOTS***THANKU DAVE. FOR. YOUR STORY IT'S. AMAZING INDEED. WELL DONE U PROBABLY SAVED. MANY MANY. LIFE'S. BY. YOUR. STERLING ACTIONS. IN YOUR. HARRIER....WELL DONE ✔✔✔✔✔
10 Percent True - Tales from the Cockpit again only my opinion but you were so incredibly tactful. You were asking this brave pilot who has suffered PTSD to relive the experience that gave him the trouble in the first place. You presumed nothing and always were incredibly respectful
You say flying took you away from everything...i don't know if you have ever shot clay pidgin's, but that activity does the same thing you can't think or do anything or let the mind wander, when shooting clay pidgens, in pairs or groups, or do set's, try it if you have not.,
Unbelievable he says 12 to 14 years ago he has the war disability pension and in a meeting they say to him it's classic PTSD symptoms from the Falklands war but im sorry as that was over 25 years since the event im not sure we'd be able to do much for you, so he has to pay for his own phycological help. What a bunch of bastards! I'd be suing the defence dept. And people wonder why joining the defence establishment is a big risk, because if you get injured you get put on the shitpile. If your injured in the line of duty, help should be available period!
The Captain of Hermes was a first class idiot and could easily have lost the war all by himself. He was enabled by an Admiral who was clearly out of his depth. It all thankfully worked out due to the professionals on the ground and in the air. Read Shaky Ward's book to read the real story. Mog is a hero.
P.t.s.d just seems to stick to a higher percentage of pilots and soldiers from the western country's, I have sufferd complex p.t.s.d , it turns up into your phsycie at odd times often repeated and repeated, its like the fear and sadness felt opens up another part of your brain,...we all try and keep it to ourselves,....it's obviously the wrong thing to do,...i think opening up is the correct thing to do ,but when it passes the first time, we don't,....then it continues sometimes many months or even years after,....baggage ehhh
Yet at least 2 chances were Argentinian fighters could have shot Dave and Nigel in doghfight with guns so sidewinders are not exactly an ultimate advantage. And there is no such thing as a fair fight, you win wars by exploiting advantages not by equalizing with your enemy, thats day dreaming. The argentinians also exploited advantages on the ground and honestly cheating using forbiden bullets and changing ship roles to humanitarian when under atack.
@@acoustic5738 We are talking about fights in the air, I do not understand what what you say has to do with it. The aim9l missile can be fired from any position and that is a great advantage against obsolete missiles used by the mirage, because the A4 did not have missiles and were configured to attack targets in water or land, in addition to being at the fuel limit always .
@@editordeguerra884 However the Shafrir 2 and Python 4 Israeli missiles were both available to the Argentines. There were excellent missiles and Argentina had received 350 of the former in 1981, so were certainly available to the Argentine Air Force. The Python was an all aspect missile perfectly capable of a head on shot. Even the Python 3 was capable of head on shots as the Israelis proved by shooting down 35 aircraft also in 1982 in Lebanon. The fact that Argentina did not use this capability is a well acknowledged failing that could have changed the course of the war. I am very happy to be corrected if I have got my facts wrong. I certainly don't pretend to be an expert - just an interested amateur! :)
Why would you assume that?. I’ve read a fair amount about the conflict and flown with an ex Argentinian air force pilot. Everything he’s said is written in numerous books from numerous sources.
