<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>The Gurkhas are from Napal, the British fought them during campaigns in India region and after victory formed a unit that was based on the warrior spirit of the Gurkha. When they draw their blade they most draw blood before putting it away. Fierce Fighters

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Historically one of the most storied and fierce fighting units of modern times. They are alive and well after surviving British budget cuts about a decade ago.
