== Who gunned down Colonel Jones? == 

 Back in the 1996 it had been revealed it was Corporal Osvaldo Olmos, of the elite 25th Infantry Regiment, who had fired the fatal round or burst from his FAL automatic rifle. Does anyone remember seeing the British documentary at the time? If you read Spencer Fitz-Gibbon's book, Not Mentioned in Despatches: The History and Mythology of the Battle of Goose Green, it is clear that one man alone, a sniper, was doing all the real damage to A Company. I have a lot of reasons to believe that the 'sniper' the Paras refer to in the morning fighting was Olmos, a 601 Commando Company sniper on loan to the 25th Regiment. But then again Corporal Dave Abols claimed to have destroyed a machinegunner manning a trench from where Colonel Jones was shot. Hugh Bicheno, in his book Razor's Edge: The Unofficial History of the Falklands War, claims Corporal José Luis Ríos of the 12th Regiment, was the man responsible for gunning down Jones and that he later was killed by a rocket fired by Abols.
