Then theres also the logistical side...the Yanks made up the majority of the forces...simple statitics will tell you as you get into the hundreds of thousands of soldiers there are going to be a few loose cannons amongst them no matter how good the training

I'd expect the small British Force in comparison would have been more experienced in all areas overall given the on going Northern Ireland conflict...street wise troops are always going to be better than troops plucked from the public life at the drop of a hat as many of the Yanks were

I'd expect North Korea wouldn't have the same problem with a standing army estimated at 1 million +
