The published story of the invasion indicates that an L42 was used to delay an Argy ship.

I have also seen photos that seem to indicate that the Britishicon had at least 1 L42 on the island prior to the Invasion, and that it was surrendered to/captured by the Argies.

Usually i believe that there are more than 1 sniper (and related equipment) in a unit?
