"the politest of soldiers, the most ferocious fighters" sums them up pretty accurately
These guys are an absolute credit to their country, and to the UK. Superb soldiers and total gentlemen, (unless you cross them).
Served with Gurka's , best of friends , worst of enermy's !
Stunning soldiers... ! Allway's very smart ..
They arrive at Catterick Garrison, not far from me. They have total respect in England, having given so much to get here. They are one of the most highly regarded regiments.
Huge respect and admiration for the Gurkas in the UK. I used to work in central London and saw these men on guard duty. No stupid tourists monkeying about with them.
“If a man says he is not afraid to die he is either a lier or a Gurkha”
great reaction brother loved it keep it up love from Nepal and also its not always about money being a gorkha soldier is our pride and our Legacy , In Nepal almost every young guy once try to be a gorkha army and also life is not that bad even if you are not selected becouse all those training and hardwork will make you a better human being and you will never fail in life , i tried for british gorkha army 2 times but failed tho i am still proud of myself and my country ,Jay Nepal Jay Gorkha ayoo gorkhali
Whilst I never got past the medical due to a problem with my knee my recruiter told me a story about a group of recruits who were out on overnight training decided to sleep in a couple of trees and those on watch fell asleep so the sergeant watching them got some gurhka recruits to climb the trees in the dead of night and in red permanent marker draw lines across the back of their necks. When the recruits got back to base they were told they had failed because their watchmen fell asleep and they were "killed" in the night, the recruits had no idea that they had bright red ink across their necks 😂😂
Out of the 400 who arrived on this intake, 399 passed the 9 month traing at Catterick in this intake. 1 broke his leg during training, but after rehab he passed with the following intake.
There are 2 battalions of Gurkha infantry, 1 & 2 Royal Gurkha Rifles. 1 is based in the UK and the other in Belize.
There is also a Gurkha engineer squadron, a Gurkha signals squadron, and a Gurkha logistics regiment, along with the Gurkha band.
Great pipers, enjoy listening to them though the tempo can be slightly different to usual.
These guys are Totally respected and much loved here in the UK, definitely to have by your side in battle....
I was attached to The Royal Marines Commandoes and my house was on the start line of beat up. The Americans would turn up and not complete the first run. The reason is they work out in the gym. Their upper body strength is amazing. However, the Falklands War showed that we can't rely on transport. Yomping over so many lives carrying heavy kit 120lbs in freezing conditions. I also worked with the Ghurkhas and they are a joy. I live near Aldershot where the majority of them live and our local hospital is staffed by Nepalese, even our wards are staffed and named after regions in Nepal. Sorry your swearing is putting me off your review. A thing that the British do, is no screaming in a candidates face. I was never screamed at. I was inspired.
These guys deserve absolute respect they deserve there place as one of the best special forces in the world along side our Royal Marine commandos Paras and of course the sas and sbs we have by far and away the best special forces in the world no disrespect to the Navy seals rangers or delta but none compare to our boys they never complain never ask how many they just ask where they are.
Dude i am in the us marines rn, and i am from nepal. The selection process for british gurkha is way harder than bootcamp. Just for comparision, you need 2:15 run time for 800m just for passing points.
It’s 2:10 this year😂
When I served with them, they had regimental walking out dress - grey trousers and socks, black shoes, white shirt and regimental ties, and a smart blazer. They also do specialist trades, but that follows on from their infantry training, which also has its own specialisations like kukri fighting. They do fun things like a weekly khud race, which is basically a run to the top of a mountain and then run back down - my guys used to do it with their full packs and weapons - it was some kind of regimental pride thing.
The missing pin you spotted on the GPMG general purpose machine gun or jimpy is the attachment point for a pintle mount usually on a vehicle or fixed defensive position the pin is usually permanently fixed to the mount although some carry spares in their weapon cleaning kit.
It always occurs to me that no-one is screaming at them. For these chaps, it doesn't appear to be necessary because they are so motivated. My neighbours are ex-Gurkha.
'if a man says he is not afraid of dying he is either lying or is a Gurkha' - field marshal Sam Makeshaw
The Indian army also has Gurkha regiments, a throwback to empire days and the some Gurkhas choose to remain and the larger Indian standing army still recruits Gurkhas just like the British do but you n greater numbers... So those that fail here could try next year or try the Indian army, and vise-versa.
The Gurkhas are highly respected and rightly so, I don't think I've ever heard a bad word said against them.
I saw one fool commenting in a gurkha video saying that why gurkhas didn't fight the british who took away their and got in british army.and that man also said that gurkhas are mercenaries and coward not fighters.maybe that fool was drunk but that fool really said that.if that so then why don't that fool fight the pakistanis by calling them enemies.anyway i am not abusing someone iam just saying.
If you are cheating you are not only cheating yourself but every other person in your unit who have passed tests with guts are determination
And will probably let them down when the shit hits the fan you might even get one of your unit killed
For some they are very very traditional where their farthers or even grandfathers have served in the British army recounting tails of how they massacred a Japanese position and so on and as well as the economical bonuses as well since when they join the British army they are liable to both a pension and a very high pay
1 rupee= 0.0062 pounds = £1=$1.63
So a recruit will have a wage of £15,985 a year convert that to rupees £1-162.5 rupees and consider their pay will give them on average 98.66 rupees a year and since the recruit would be secure in both food, shelter and a very well paid job, for them it’s like winning the national lottery, and as I said most of that money would be sent home to support their families
I did some rough math. Considering what the average Nepalese annual salary in Nepalese rupees, a Gurkha's annual salary is just over 28 times that figure. Those living back in Nepal will be living rather fat with just 3 times that much.
British Gurkhas are elite warriors and soldiers you don't want to mess around with full stop. In the Falklands war, the Argentine soldiers retreated instead of fighting them as their brutual fighting skills are known around the globe! Ive meet them and they are so proud and their ceremonal dress was top notch. Check out the Indian Gorkha (incident on Indian train) Bishnu Shrestha and his story made Worldwide by his brave actions! Gurkhas British, Indian or anyother force are amazing warriors! Gurkha standards and fitness are much higher than USMC!!!
We're talking an elite unit here chap, ofcourse it's more full on. To be fair though, this kind of selection process is probably the closest you will get to a Space Marine style recruiting program. Even the numbers and percentages are relatively close.
96% failure rate before actual training starts is probably the strictest recruitment standards in any military
what you call a M240 is called a GPMG (General Purpose Machine Gun)
I joined the British Army at 21 in 1999
Nice video I'm from nepal
The problem with American soldiers they look good with their muscles 😂...but lack stamina and would get worn out if they had to fight the Gurkhas, who are gentlemen in life and ultimate warriors on war...and so humble, but then again the best of the best are always found to be humble as they know they are the best, so no point shouting about it
There isn’t really an MOS in the UK. If you join the army for example you join a regiment which does specific things. The Gurkhas for example will be sent to either the Royal Gurkha Rifles, 10 Queen Own Gurkha Logistics Regiment, Queen’ Gurkha Signals, The Queen’s own Gurkha Logistics Regiment, or The Band of the Brigade of Gurkhas.
Hey, we all have noisy neighbours. Even my neighbour always turn on his speaker from midday to midnight
If you can't beat them, recruit them 👍💪
Oh man, my first cut in the Navy was torture. Had the barber cursing me for how thick my hair was.
I'm so proud to call my Gurkhas brothers.
Thank you for showing respect and recognition to these wonderful young men from Nepal. I've worked with a lot of Gurkhas over the years, in the security industry based in the UK. A lot of them leave the army fairly early and go into private security, where they can.....shall we say, do better financially. That was where it was my privilege to manage them. There's something very special about those tough, fearless men from the hills. Once you've worked with them, got to know them, you never forget them. Thanks again for an excellent video.
That was a Minimi if i'm correct. effectively a 240. I preferred the L7A2 GPMG during service, which in turn is an FN MAG licence.
The mufti is their civilian outfit and is worn while they are on duty and not in combat.
I don't know why but after seeing this vedio I wanna become a British army .
If a man says he is not afraid to die he is either lying or a Gurkha
The Gurkhas are a legacy from britain's imperial past a culture that respected another culture born out of conflict between the british army and the Nepalese feared warriors in the anglo / Nepalese 1814 war there part of the british military but maintain the cultural identities very few countries are capable of this or understand this historical legacy
Imperium man from WH40K sounds like...
There are Gurkha infantry, signals, engineers and logistics units
pls react to ep 3 of tarkov it's the best one sick videos bro
You look like a civi but bet you’re a cold blooded killer! (During the theatre of war)
may b its light for huge people who is 6 feet 100 kg but for gurkh They are running up the hill carrying their half weight...
You could actually consider the Gurkhas as a form of special forces which reminds me someone I know who was Told me that some British soldiers tried the doku race and they all faild🤣😂
Special..yes. Special Forces...absolutely not my friend.
The ghurkas are the UKs other unofficial special forces along with the SAS SBS and marines
Tbf all four regiments train together
Here, the story of a one man Gurkha Army, going against the Taliban in Afghanistan:
ua-cam.com/video/u_Ml2jpxezM/v-deo.html
we have treated them like shit. its not fair they are amazing fighters and loyal they deserve far more respect than the government have given them
Simply not true.
Rubbish. Highly regarded and totally respected. You have a bad attitude.
Did my comment just get deleted????
Edit: Whatever. Let it be deleted. I'm not blaming anyone here but UA-cam.
I have never deleted a comment, I think UA-cam has the ability to but I'm unsure of what it looks for
to determine which ones get deleted :)
@@peachbutt2330 I know you didn't delete any. It's all UA-cam. I think it got deleted because I said the F-word, which is stupid.
Don’t curse like that it’s inappropriate put me off watching your channel
Excuse me
This is not fair saying poor and corrupted country.How unfair using this word.They use our young through them in bloody war.
Can you tell the name of this reporter .
I want to tell her next time if you use this poor and corrupted country I will definitely want to show her what gorkha women can do
Reporter le j vanyo tyo hoina rw?
They fight for money not for country.
No it is not about money it is about the word which they are using from very long time(POOR AND CORRUPTED)
Money doesn't matters everyone goes to work from different counties to work in different sectors .But it is about the country and the loyalty for the job .
Why they never count?
Using our young for war and for their security and discriminating the same country again and again infront of the world that means their intentions are not correct .
@@laxmirayamajhi7844 as a gwt supporter i understand why you are angry but they are well thought of by ordinary people here, and the lads that do join are not forced in any way, its a two way street, what will you say i wonder when the women of nepal are allowed to join i think it will happen.
Mr Tom Millar
Good Morning
You are absolutely wrong. May be you didn't get me what I am trying to say.I am happy that our lads are serving holding their pride being Gorkhas not in Britain only there are lots more countries where Gorkhas are still serving. and obviously they are going to serve until our friendship remains.
Its about the treaty signed between our government and the British government. That time our soldiers in British army are taken not because they are poor or the country is poor they are judges by their ability and their skills.I think still our lads are capable and doing same and I am proud of them.
AND BY THE WAY I am not the government fan. I am pure Nepali women who loves my country and being old responsible citizen I have right to say if anything comes bad about my country.
