There was a Gurkha who won the Gallantry Cross a couple of years ago. A group of about 20 Taliban attack his position. He operated a machine gun until he ran out of ammunition, grabbed the base and drove the remainders off. He looks like he is about 12 years old. They probably have a hard time understanding our Politically correct BS. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1369743/Gurkha-fought-Taliban-awarded-Gallantry-Cross.html
Gurkha who single-handedly fought off up to 30 Taliban awarded Gallantry Cross
Acting Sergeant Dipprasad Pun, 31, exhausted all his ammunition and at one point had to beat away a militant climbing the walls of his base in Afghanistan.

If he had been a US service member, he would have been court martialed for not following the ROE.

This Gurkha post reminds me of the Korean Soldiers we had the privilege of serving with in Vietnam some of their tactics were very effective and often very brutal seem to get the job done though
