History of Gurkhas

Gurkhas are the part of British army. ?Better to die than be a coward? is the motto of Nepalese Gurkha soldiers. They use to carry traditional weapon an 18 inch long curved knife known as kukri during battle. During past it was said that once a kukri was drawn out in battle it had to taste blood if not its owner had to cut himself before putting it to its sheath. Now the gurkhas say that it is used mainly for cooking.

Gurkhas have loyally fought for the British all over the world receiving 13 Victoria crosses between them. In the two world wars more than 200,000 fought and in the past 50 years they have served Hong Kong, Malaysia, Borneo, Cyprus, Kosovo, Iraq, and Afghanistan. During the two world wars 43000 men lost their lives.

Four ethnic groups Gurungs and Magars from central Nepal and rais and Limbus from the east who live in the village of improvised hills farmers have always dominated the ranks. They also follow Nepalese customs and beliefs, brigades follows religious festivals such as Dashain, in which goats and buffalos are sacrificed. The numbers of gorkhali have been sharply reduced from World War II peak of 112,000 men now stands at about 3500.

The soldiers are still selected from young men living in the hills of Nepal with about 28000 youth tackling the selection procedure for just over 200 places each year. The selection of soldier process has been described as one of the toughest in the world and is fiercely contested. During selection process, young people have to run uphill for 40 minutes carrying a basket on their back, which is filled with rocks weighting 70IBS.

Historically Gurkhas who have served their time in the army for a maximum of 30 years and minimum of 15 years to secure a pension were discharged back to Nepal. All retired Gurkha won the right to live in Uk, following high profile campaign. Gurkha veterans have also continued to fight for the equal pension with the soldiers they have served alongside. In 2007 they won a partial victory when the pension rules were changed to give equal pension right with other service personnel in the UK.

aye aye aye….you really are a fucking moron aren't you. *hint* read the bits I put in bold for you…

they are mercenaries whether you like it or not… they `are not english or british.. they are hired guns

I almost felt bad for the poor Argies while I was down in the Falklands. That wasn't even a contest was it? Poor fuckers had no chance and we didn't even get support from our great saviours in America. All that way and it was over before it got going really. The one thing we did learn from them though is do not make warship superstructure from aluminum. It burns nicely.

I could tell you some great stories about the Ghurkas down there…but it's too gruesome for you poor sensitive Americans.

This is becoming a tl;dr thread.

Nope..It was the Type 21 Frigates. HMS Ardent and Antelope in this case. Beautiful looking ships though.

interesting:


HMS Sheffield (D80) was the second Royal Navy ship to be named after the city of Sheffield in Yorkshire. She was a Type 42 Guided Missile Destroyer laid down by Vickers Shipbuilding and Engineering at Barrow-in-Furness on 15 January 1970, launched on 10 June 1971 and commissioned on 16 February 1975.

An explosion during construction killed two dockyard workers [1] and damaged a section of hull which was replaced, ironically, with a section from an identical ship, ARA Hercules, being built for the Argentine Navy.[2] The ship was part of the Task Force sent to the Falkland Islands during the Falklands War. She was struck by an Exocet air-launched anti-ship missile from a Super Etendard aircraft belonging to the Argentine Navy on 4 May 1982 and foundered on 10 May 1982.

enrique iglesias!

And the General Belgrano used to be the USS Phoenix so we sunk an American ship….SEE! America was involved in the Falklands conflict after all.

Ah, I love a happy ending…
