このコンテンツについて
It’s hard to cover the entire history of a military unit. It’s much easier to cover a handful of individuals who were part of it. It’s even better when those handful of guys are completely God damn feral in battle. When you think of Nepal you probably think of sherpas and Mount Everest, you don’t think of a bunch of badasses with giant knives fighting for the English Crown in basically every conflict they’ve been involved with since the early 1800’s (as an American, I’m super glad the Brits didn’t bring them to the Revolution.) Two of our guys share the same last name but aren’t related; they both fought the Japanese during WWII. One single-handedly fended off a massive wave of charging baddies. The other took the fight to them. Big time. Our final Gurkha pulled some shit on a train that if you saw it in a movie based on his life you wouldn’t believe that it was true. These guys are excellent, loyal, terrifying, and above all else, brave as hell. There’s a saying: “If a man says he’s not afraid of dying, he’s either lying or a Gurkha.”
