Everybody Loves a Gurkha...

Stretch sent this in. I haven't stopped chuckling...


It was a tossup between that and "Gurkhas: They'll kill your ass dead"...

That is all.

You mean something like this??

A retired Indian Gorkha soldier recently revisited those glory days when he thwarted 40 robbers, killing three of them and injuring eight others, with his khukuri during a train journey.

The Gurkhas in the form of the 1st Royal Gurkha Regiment (British Army) are doing some good work in Afghanistan. They know the Afghanis and the Afghanis know them well. The Taliban don't seem to like them all that much, though.

Always bet on the Gurkha.

Dude, I'd NEVER laugh at a picture of a Gurkha. You don't know who might send word back to the Himalayas, then one night as you answer the door...
Seriously, I'm glad they're on the side of Western Civilization. What ever the Brits do in the Future, Please don't screw with the Gurkhas!

well if the Taliban doesn;t't like them that's just another vote in their favor in my book.
