Nepali Gurkha Awarded the Conspicuous Gallantry Cross (http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20110602/wl_uk_afp/britainmilitaryafghanistannepalaward)
Thirty Taliban versus one gurkha. Talk about uneven odds for the badguys.
No kidding. Exactly like a scene from an action flick. Rifle, MG, thrown grenades, launched grendaes, claymore, swinging a MG tripod. Major BA.

There was also the story a couple of years ago about the Gurkha that was on a train being robbed by bandits who stepped in when a girl was about to be raped in front of him.... and single-handedly drove off all 40 bandits.

Basically, Gurkhas are not to be fucked with.

The Imperial Japanese Army gave the Gurkhas a wide berth as well.

A number of the private security companies in Iraq and Afghanistan employ Ghurkas. For good reason.

Oh man:mad: I really thought when I clicked on that I was gonna see a Ghurka going medieval on a camel jockey with a kukri.
