The landscape had a lot to do with it, if it was open pitched battles, the Gurkha's would have fallen like all the rest my friend. What makes the Gurkhas great is the bravery and the ability to fight in mountain's and jungles which these troops do very well in. The British Gurkhas are on another level though as the training goes to higher levels making them more specialised.

I first remember these guys in the 70's and 80's from my childhood, their camp was close to the area I grew up in. You'd see them on a Saturday in town, dressed smartly in regimental blazers, tie and trousers buying massive rolls of fabric to send home to their families in Naple. I even got to try their "bush" cooking, which to this day I remember fondly. I think what I remember most about these men, was how they cared for each other and those in their company (us kids). The locals never had a bad word to say about them, they conducted themselves perfectly, always polite, charming and gentle.

There is a story during WWII that a senior British officer addressed formed up Ghurkas and asked them for volunteers for parachute training and when that request was translated, the entire formation marched forward two steps and halted......the officer was somewhat startled and then told the formation that since the raining could only provide one main parachute per trainee to jump from planes in training, and that there could not be a second reserve parachute provided......that explanation was translated and was followed by the entire formation breaking out into laughter.....the senior British officer was again startled and asked the Ghurka interpreter if they understood that only one main parachute could be provided and the interpreter then told the British officer that the men had believed that they were volunteering to jump but had not realized that any parachute would be provided at all......!

Gurkhas are such a fierce fighting force and yet so loyal & disciplined that the Brits decided to have their own Gurkha Regiment 200 yrs back after the inconclusive Aglo-Nepalese war. Their Bravery & loyalty is so legendary that Gokha Regiment & Gorkha Rifles are among some of the most respected regiments of the Indian Army too. Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw (Gurkha Regiment) used to proudly say: " If a soldier says he is not afraid of death, then he is either lying or He is a Gurkha!" I don't think any other ethnicity has the honour of serving in the most decorated regiments of the standing armies of 3 nations: Britain, India & Nepal.

My dad was a sigs operator in the WW2 and the Gurkhas would terrorize the Germans by going into a camp and slitting a mans throat in the centre of the camp. The next night no one slept and it wore the Germans down. You didn’t wear the better German boots either because they were smooth and Canadian boots were pebbled. So they would go to a camp feel the boots at night to determine friend or foe. He called them tough buggers.

Nice myth, but extremely unlikely. For example, how would they get past the guards and how would you (or anyone else) know whether the Germans slept or not? And, if they entered a German camp, why would they need to be feeling boots to determine friend or foe? It all sounds made up, which it probably is.

A friend of mine tells this story, when he went through the Army School of Bagpipe Music (years ago). In order to graduate, Gurkha Pipers had to play a set of tunes to Gurkha Regiment standards (pretty low). There was a group of Guhrka's ahead of him so he figured he had to wait for a fair bit of time. However, because Guhrka's play all of their tunes at *double-time* and before my friend could finish his cup of tea the entire class of Gurkha Pipers had gone through, played their tunes and moved on. When he marched into the room, he said the instructors were visibly weary from the music playing too fast, out of tune and pretty badly played. But, Gurkha regimental leaders wanted them moved on, so away they went. One of the instructors sat back in his chair and breathed a huge sigh of relief and said, something along the line of "thank God, no more Gurkha's". He said that became their "unofficial" Regimental motto. Gurkha's are tough solid soldiers anyone would want on their side, but whoever gave them bagpipes needed to be slapped.
