"The finest men you could ever meet." to quote a soldier i met while at Camp.
"Unlike the British squaddie after nine pints of Stella, Johnny Gurkha remains approachable and likeable and shows no sign of the usual wear & tear associated with going on the lash - a skill no doubt learnt from wizened old monks high above the snowline of the Himalayas. Do not engage in the following:
A fight - you will lose. You may possibly end up in the cooked meat section in Sainsbury's at 45p/Lb.
A drinking competition - see above without the Sainsbury's bit." to quote the british army rumour service.
I greatly admire the gurkhas, i think they're a fantastic lot. This post was really to share a few pics i've found of them, but also to act as a tribute to them. Enjoy!
Ayo Gorkhali!
Annoying the annoying, so you don't have to.
