In my experience you’ll never meet a bunch of more respectable lads, especially as a woman. I had to treat their minor injuries and fractures as a civilian overseas and wow, I’ve never been treated with such respect from anyone ever. Their parents should be extremely proud of these young lads.

I had the pleasure of working with the Gurkha's in the Falkland's. I have never met a more polite, respectful and terrifying group of men in my life. Welcome to Australia and God bless.

My elderly father went hiking into the forest in Singapore, and got lost for 3 days. It was the Gurkha jungle trekkers from Singapore police force who went into the woods, combed the area and saved my father. I have utmost respect for these professional military men, my father still lives today because of the Gurkhas. Thank you all.

The Gurkhas are very well respected in Singapore as part of our Singapore Police Force. Thank you for your service.

Pride of the British Army. Go on lads, show them why EVERYONE knows who you are.

Warriors from the mountains, fearless and effective. The British Army is lucky to have them.

As an American, I have total respect for the Gurkhas. They are true warriors!

The British owe the Gurikhas so much I just wish the UK would treat them better. Thank you so much for your service ❤

These are the most impressive soldiers of their nation, now serving in one of the finest armed forces in the world. Best of the best.

In 1989, I had the amazing experience of visiting your regiment in Church Chrookham. I was in the Danish Royal Life Guards who sent our company over to you, and you sent one of your companies over to us in Denmark. Your soldiers were very friendly and absolutely very professional. It was an experience I will never forget. You were amazing hosts and I thank you for your friendship.

These tiny chaps are head and shoulders above their foes primarily because they stand atop their fallen bodies. In a very polite and uniform manner 👌

My grandad served with these soldiers in WW2 in Burma.Spoke so highly of them

Absolute respect to the Gurkhas. They are the official definition of ‘well hard’. We love and salute you!

I had the chance to meet some of the Royal Gurkha Rifles down the Falklands in 1982. Very polite and professional young men.

Goosebumps and I'm British and very proud we have The Brigade of Gurkhas. 4000 i would love to see this rise to 6000 in the future.

I grew up in Fleet, walked past the Gurkha Reg. every morning on the way to school. They were always friendly and kind when we saw them, we sometimes played football with them. If you ever meet a Civ Gurkha the are calm, polite and respectful....but deep down we all know just how impressive and devastating a force they are. I'll never forget the times they came to our school and did landing exercises with blank, smokes the whole bang. IF you know when, how and why the Gurkhas joined the British Army, you know why they deserve such respect.

Total and utter respect for these amazing men who are the most polite and respectful but also one if not the most feared fighting men in the world. They are absolutely true warriors and will fight and overcome right to the very end without fear, they provide the fear and rightfully so. Thank you for your service gentlemen and from an old British veteran I salute each and everyone of you.

The UK Public support you Gurkha's !!

We indians are super lucky to have these polite badass warriors ....They do missions so much professional...just them coming breaks morals of many hardcore fighters

One word to describe the Gukha's, Legends!

I have never met any, only ever seen Gurkhas in Hong Kong around 1989-90 when I went there in the RAN. Their exploits are absolutely legendary, and I’m so glad they are training here with the Australian Army and US Marine Corps! 🇦🇺🇬🇧🇺🇸

Excellent video, highlighting the Mt Bundey training area- most British exchange soldiers are a bit blown away by the size of our training areas, especially when it is possible to fire out to full ranges, and that is without obliterating some English village 18 km away! The Gurkhas would be absolutely lethal in CQB with those khukris, I was thinking that when they were doing entry exercises in the MOUT facility. AYO GURKHALI!!!!!

My Grandfather fought in Burma during world war 2. He spoke only once of his experiences and on that one occasion mentioned that the Gurkhas were the most elite warriors he'd ever fought with. Very glad those soldiers are on our side!

I was working at US Embassy in Kathmandu and was given a Gurka Knife back around 1982. It was just made.

Fantastic people, everyone who has messed with them in the past has either regretted it, ran away or hired them.

These men have earned the respect and honour of the British people. They have our hearts. Proud of all of them 💖💖💖💖💖💖👌👌👌👌

I’m very proud my Dad was a RSM in the Gurkhas he loved his men as his own,he told me biggest mistake in his life when he resigned his commission and left them he regretted it till the day he died.

I had the honour of being friends with some of these little guys I was on the same barracks as them in Aldershot years ago you cannot meet a more honest and respectful group of men they are small in stature but giants in bravery and courage they used to love torturing me with their curry nights I'm Scottish and can't handle a tikka never mind a ghurkas curry by the time I had finished the curry they would all be in tears they love us Scottish as we are classed as highlanders like they are I will always love and respect the men of this great regiment thanks for your service ghurka rifles I hope Britain honour you all the way you should be it's about time we recognised the blood and tears these men have put into the protection of this country godbless and protect them all

I remember a story my grandad used to tell me on occasion about my great-uncle Arthur. During WW2 he was captured and tortured by the Japanese forces who were assaulting Burma at the time, after spending months in captivity (starved and beaten) he was eventually rescued by Gurkha commandos. He said that Arthur had never seen such a professional and daring group of soldiers in all his life, they essentially nursed him back to life in the middle of the forest until he was fit to travel back to where allied forces were situated. Arthur used to say that that despite being mountain people, they could adapt to and survive in practically any environment. He used to talk about how they would be able to tell which side you belonged to based upon how your shoelaces were tied, and "god help you if they weren't tied the way they preferred" is something he used to say a lot.

In the 1990's a Gurkha Company was on exercise at the Puckapunyal Range in Victoria Australia. I was in RAEME (Royal Australian Electrical Mechanical Engineers) and when out on the range area on a job, my Corporal and myself came across some of the Gurkhas who were with one of their support vehicles (a borrowed Australian Land Rover) that had broken down. We quickly got their vehicle repaired and operational again and went on our way. I don't how they found us, but a few days later we were greeted by a couple of Gurkha's with their Official Exercise polo shirts to present to us as thanks for assisting them. Great blokes and very tough soldiers.

Met them when I went to London and got to train with one of them for 4 weeks absolute machines

The Gurkhas are the number one of the British army god bless them and there family's 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿👍😄

I always watch the british army uploads British army best 😅

Aside all the deserved praise for the Gurkhas, whoever made and put together this video has done such an amazing job. Like seriously, the quality of this video is S tier 🍻👏

I have mates in the ADF who told me about the Gurkha years ago, they're genuinely venerated amongst professional solders like few others. Hardly surprising TBH, when you have guys like Dipprasad Pun (who took out 30 or more Taliban by himself) in your ranks - that evolves to legendary status pretty quickly. It also makes me grateful to Joanna Lumley for campaigning to ensure these guys had proper rights to retire to the UK if they wanted to, it was bizarre to me that they previously couldn't especially given that they'd served so remarkably in the defence of the country. This is historic tie that we should preserve and protect at all times. I genuinely pity an enemy who ever sees Gurkhas heading towards their trench... better hope your next life works out better than this one.

The finest warriors on the planet 🇬🇧❤️🇳🇵

Very loyal soldiers. The Gurkhas. Salute.

Love the Gurkhas. So glad they are on our side. 🇦🇺

Never forget what the Gurkhas have done for us.

These guys go through a huge selection process just to be selected from the overwhelming number of young men desperate for the privilege, income, and other enormous benefits, of the Ghurka position. Their training and physical abilities would make them naturals for SO training.

Highly respectable unit, a credit to their country & ours 🫡👏

I served in 1 RGR, got goosebumps.

While I was training with them in the 90s hold up the respect , action talk louder than words salute to you guys , Ayo Gorkhali 👍👍👍

Ultimate respect for the gurkhas ALWAYS MANY THANKS FOR YOUR LOYALTY AND SERVICE !.

I have a love for these soldiers that is born from 'I know not where' - its hair raising stuff to witness our Gurkha soldiers in effect. I am proud and admire them all.

A fantastic watch. Great to see soldiers from 3 great nations working together. God bless you all for everything you do. Simon

Absolute warriors. Probably one of the last true warrior class/cultures we have left. Extremely happy they are on our side. The stories about this group sound like something out of mythology but....its real.

Most physically fit soldiers in the British army. Fact. Bravo to these boys

Damn glad that these men are on our side. I hope that the Gurkha rifles know what high regard the ordinary British person holds them.

Single Gurkha vs 200 armed combatants? Yeah Gurkha not got enough of a challenge.

I've been a fan of the Ghurkas and of their Kukri for awhile and this is such a cool video youve shared

Gurkhas are hard core. They have been leading the charge in the British Army for a long time. They are one of the most respected units in the world.

I spent 15 months with 2/2 GR in both Hong Kong and Korea. It was the highlight of my 21 year career!

To fight beside a warrior people, there is no greater honour.

Respect to the Royal Gurkha Rifles - One of the best fighting regiments in the world

Saw them hiking in the Brecon Beacons once and stopped for a chat. Very polite and professional men.

No woke advert there brilliant

Mountainous regions produce the best warriors across the globe, but Gurkhas man. Ferocity and professionalism combined. Our enemies can dread them, run from them, but Gurkhas will get them all the same

They are fantastic soldiers we should be privileged to have them in our military. respect to you all and thank you for looking after us in the UK.

WARRIORS….Thank You and God bless You and your Families for All your Service and Sacrifices you make.

Met some at Stanta Norfolk UK years ago very polite , also heard some stories about them from my late father, thank god they are on our side 🫡

So proud of you guys

some of the best warriors on the planet

Biggest respect to our Gurkha regiments… 🙏🙏

I can’t wait to be apart of this army 🇬🇧 going to basic training in September.

It was my absolute privilege and pleasure to know and work alongside Gurkhas during my time in the Royal Corps of Signals. To visit their homeland in 2009 was a life goal achieved.

I work at a lot of events where the SIA staff are mostly ex 2nd Rifles Gurkhas. Nicest bunch of blokes I've ever met !

It's a honour for the family to be chosen to serve, and then after years of unwavering service they are treated terribly and have to fight to stay in the country they've served with distinction.

Great regiment worked in Belize with them very loyal very respectful and very tough soldiers

I remember visiting a local businessman whose life had been threatened, he’d employed retired Gurkha’s for protection, one was stood near the front gate to his farmhouse, he was about five foot tall, in a high viz vest and was very polite letting me on to the premises, he had a very disarming smile but I thought, I would not like to upset you…

Es gibt keinen besseren Kameraden als die Gurkhs ,habe 4 von den Kameraden als ACW im GGS der Bfg kennen gelernt sie waren immer korrkt wenn mal obwohl man sie kannte und en Ausweis kontrolieren musste , nie hatten wir Probleme , was man leider von den anderen nicht sagen kann. Außerdem gibt es bei der Truppe noch Ehre , was mehr als selten ist in einer Armee. Thx for your Service Fellows .Was ich so nicht wusste ist das sie die AUG haben [oh lag falsch , das sind die AUSIS wie wir sie nannten ), dachte immer das SR80 sein die StanWaffe.Mein Arbeitswerkzeug war der 120mm Mörser für 8 Jahre beim Bund , 89-97.THX to the CO for the nice Words , you dont get these Words not often from an CO , like he said it you can see it in his Face that this is real what he sayd and not only from Paper coming .

When they were doing UN missions they used to go into marine camps and tie the shoelaces while the marines were sleeping. Imagine the level of stealth Also the legend is that if the khukri is unsheathed, it has to draw blood, so they probably cut themselves slightly. Always fun and terrifying to read their stories

This is brilliant! Absolute warriors. The kata shape is very Wada Ryu in nature

It's simply a great view to see good people work in a team environment. An old emergency responder from Texas I salute you. Stand talk !

Good stuff, so much history and honor.. utmost respect 🙏

From my understanding there isn’t many people that can successfully defeat these guys. Best of the best I hear.

I was a mortar man way back in the 1980's, the basics are pretty much the same but the equipment and ammunition has advanced considerably making morta men more lethal and effective.

That intro gave me shivers up my spine. Well done to the Gurkhas and the Army Phot behind the camera.

So proud of those boys, units of menace and men, they do our army so proud and serve, god bless them.

Lesson to take away after watching this is to always bring a camping chair when in the field.

nice to see our Gurkha brothers in Australia

From what I hear/see/feel - these Gurkhas simply do not eff around on the battle field. Lots of stories of valor coming from the Gurkhas. Hats off to you Sirs! From a New Zealander.

Respect. Reputation for being well mannered, polite and still the fiercest of warriors.

Grandfather was in desert in WW2 and an arm came around and felt his rising Sun badge. He was on sentry duty and spun around no one was there.. Gurkhas would be awesome to work with!

Outstanding!

How can we forget that they become what they are now after a gruelling selection process and 9 months of training. Jai Gorkhali! Jai Nepal! 🇳🇵

They are the bravest of the brave. I have known them in Afghanistan and Hong Kong . Just count the number of VC's.

Yea the Gurkhas are people who don't talk too much they keep to themselves they are not like other regular people who like to boast or showoff their capabilities and achievements.They have alot of achievements but they don't go around telling people

These men are simply unstoppable and are the best, they should be proud of themselves

Go on lads!

i live in greenwich. the nepalese and squaddies i walk past daily are the best of people in this city. the most decent polite people i meet in my manor.

Jay indian gurkhaa proud of you indian gurhha brothers ♥️🇮🇳 jay mahakali aayo gorkhali

The battle plan for uk war against Russia Part 1: send out the Gurkhas Part 2: Russian surrender

In any bad situation if you have the Gurkha Rifles by your side you know you'll be at an advantage. The most profesional soldiers to have had the chance to worked with. All the best to them.

Amidst the dense jungles of Burma, a tense silence hung in the air as a British Gurkha soldier and a Japanese soldier found themselves facing each other, their eyes locked in a fierce gaze. The sweltering heat seemed to intensify the gravity of the moment. With a swift, fluid motion, the Gurkha unsheathed his cherished kukri, its gleaming blade catching the dappled sunlight. The Japanese soldier, equally determined, drew his katana, the blade reflecting the shadows of the surrounding foliage. The Gurkha's grip tightened on his kukri, a symbol of his heritage and valor, while the Japanese soldier's katana embodied his own sense of duty and honor. They circled each other cautiously, a mutual respect evident despite the impending clash. As the first clash of steel echoed through the jungle, the Gurkha's kukri danced with precision, its curved edge proving to be a deadly extension of his arm. The Japanese soldier's katana responded with calculated grace, the blade slicing through the air with elegance honed through years of discipline. Each strike, parry, and dodge was a testament to their unwavering dedication and training. The Gurkha's kukri deflected a powerful strike from the katana, sending sparks flying in all directions. In response, the Gurkha lunged forward, his kukri finding an opening and leaving a deep gash on the Japanese soldier's arm. Undeterred, the Japanese soldier gritted his teeth, his determination unwavering. With renewed focus, he executed a lightning-fast series of strikes, forcing the Gurkha on the defensive. The Gurkha's kukri skillfully deflected the blows, the clash of steel reverberating through the jungle like a primal symphony. As sweat-soaked faces and steely gazes remained locked in an intense struggle, a sense of mutual understanding seemed to transcend the language barrier. They were warriors, bound by their respective codes of honor, engaged in a timeless dance of combat. In a final climactic clash, the Gurkha's kukri found its mark, disarming the Japanese soldier and leaving him defenseless. The two combatants locked eyes one last time, a silent acknowledgment of the indomitable spirit that had driven them to this moment. With a nod of respect, the Gurkha extended his hand, offering assistance to his fallen adversary. The Japanese soldier accepted the gesture, their hands briefly touching in a solemn bond of shared experience. In the heart of the Burmese jungle, amidst the chaos of war, two warriors had faced off not just in battle, but in a profound testament to the power of honor, respect, and the unbreakable human spirit.

thses are Nepalese gurkha ......joined british army. proud nepali

Royal Gurkha's still don't get the recognition that they deserve from the first world war. My great grandfathers both served alongside the Gurkhas in the 'Black Watch' & 'Seaforth Highlanders' regiments. I have diaries describing the courage and ferocity displayed by the Gurkhas (Although the language used was more 'colourful' back then).

Absolute nails these lads. Worked with them first hand.

Respect... And this video has a great intro, as the camera turns, there they are... like ghosts

A true warrior class. Full respect to the Gurkha Regiment. Respectful and yet terrifying when the time comes.
