These are some impressive young men and they're going into 16 Air Assault BCT which is one of the UK's elite quick response/ deployment brigades for immediate international deployment at a few days notice. When people in our country get angry at immigrants, they forget that some of our most fearsome, loyal and hardworking warriors are immigrants - and the British Army is stronger with them than without. Up the Gurkhas and godspeed lads!
Gurkhas are fiercesome in battle. Completely loyal. Only one thing, I really hope they sort their Pension System, and bring it into alignment with the rest of the Armed Forces. They are members of the British forces and should be treated equally. Those Gurkhas will give heart and soul for The Crown so whats the problem?
I do not know 100% if this is correct but I think issue has to do with the value of the pension in relation to cost of living in Nepal when converted to the Nepalese rupee. Given that a large amount of men return home the standard pension value would result in a very high standard of living, not a bad thing i hear you cry, but this has the very serious potential of effecting/destablizing the local economy in areas of Nepal.
@@robertmac8287 But Robert, those proud lads/men are serving over here, working hard to support their families in Napal. They have families in Napal that need their help. The population of Nepal is over 30 million. I do not think a few thousand men joining up, will plunge Nepal into some financial ruin. Nepal is a very beautiful country but it is also one of the poorest in the World. Some places don't even have proper roads into the mountain villages. Yes the are huge problems there.I certainly don't think that a few thousand Gurkhas out of a population of 30 million, should be responsible for stabilising the economy, local or otherwise. Governments are responsible for running countries. All you have to do is look at the Governmn we have here. Plenty of poverty but there will be more. The Brigade of Gurkhas became a part of the British Army, officially. So why not be treated equally. The men they are recruiting will be the most brave and loyal soldiers to be found. They should be paid properly. After all the Gurkhas have been around for 200 years! ,
@@robertmac8287 that is somewhat true but usually these Gurkha soldiers come from families who are living in poor conditions. The money they get tremendously helps their sons and daughters (for example school fees and medical costs)
My grandfather used to be a Gurkha and fought in the Bruneian Revolt. He was going to fight in the Falkland Islands but he was on hold. Fortunately, he was not sent to Falkland Islands. He retired around 1985 or 1986. Thank you grandpa for defending Britain! My grandfather is still alive today at the age of 83! Ayo Gorkhali! 🇳🇵 🇨🇦 🤝 🇬🇧
I love, love watching the Gurkha recruiting videos. They have worked so hard to get there, and remain humble and respectful - but I can tell you from experience; they make incredible soldiers and are as fit as a butchers dog. And, their drill is something to behold. Cracking video this; welcome recruits!
Retired Gurkha here, served in Iraq, Afghanistan, and other places that I cannot name. Good luck to these young soldiers. Hopefully we won’t be deployed to the streets, but we stand ready to protect people and property, including mosques, as soon as we are ordered to so do. God Bless the King.
My friends live in Pokhara & their street is on one of the main training routes for the pre-selection boot camps...It is incredibly tough training even before selection, Good Luck to all the successful recruits... 🙏🙏🙏
Recently renovated all of the Gurkhas barracks nation wide, huge upgrade from what they had previously and proud I could do for them. Thank you for all you do lads
Having Ghurkas in the British Army makes me proud , the way our successive governments have treated them and their pension rights and immigration issues makes me ashamed . Nothing but respect for these excellent soldiers from a Retired Royal Marine Commando .
I was a TA signaller and Foreign Legion NCO. God bless them and I hope they had the same level of pride I had when I got my green beret and Kepi Blanc. Do they train in the old 11 sigs Helles barracks setup? 245 18***, 165*** . System has hidden an extra asterisk on each number.
Congratulations! Brings back happy memories of seeing my boy pass-out from training in Catterick. We walked past the Gurkha barracks on the way to the Falklands Centre
Excellent work, well done Chaps! If only the British Army could have an entire Gurkha Division including a dedicated Gurkha Special Forces Regiment. Cheers.👍
Looks like their english has improved. Worked with quite a lot in Baghdad years ago. A lot could hardly speak english. Better than any UK gen Z snowflakes that we produce. These. Days. They will get the job in hand done. Im Glad Joanna Lumley did and does what she does for them as well. Respect.
It’s a pity Australia doesn’t have a regiment of Gurkhas, they would be quite welcomed in our country, The Australian government should think about recruiting these brave soldiers.
Your political views are not welcome here. Most people in the military are logistics, driving lorries and forklifts not tanks and IFV's. They are just as valuable.
@teddypicker8799 nothing political, so don't know why you answered this way. The gurkas are very respected and I was just sorry that such young men may have to face some difficult times in the world's history. Thank you , I am well aware of many jobs our forces do.
Casio wrist watch ⌚️ was the king in this video ,seeing all soldiers with Casio….wich means is a precision watch for all kind of forces category,time is very precious in a combat situation! Good choice 👍
The British public are not that stupid, they would welcome the Gurkhas to fight by their side!, and if you knew anything about them, then you’d know that they have a common enemy with us, and are one with us!
Saddest thing is no one gives them career advice before they go to their respective regiments. Everyone ive talked to al goes with the whimp/flow.. I would’ve chosen something Cyber Security related or IT related or Engineer or try and become Foreman in RG signals..as much respect I have for RGR post career there is nothing else to do rather than just be a security guard or do menial jobs
As a indian...i deeply concern about not being part of indian army anymore..gorkha was the backbone of our army...but due to the politics of indian govt ( modi govt ) they are not getting recruited in our forces anymore 😢
Gurkhas are brave mercenaries like the Wagner group and shall fight for anyone who pays them. Being mountain men they are exceptionally good at field and jungle craft. Unfortunately nepalese girls are sold into the sex trade in large numbers by their own kinsmen. Gurkhas make good soldiers but those without a conscience. More than 1000 unarmed Sikhs peacefully protesting against british colonial rule were massacred by machine gun weilding Gurkha soldiers under orders of Gen Dyer in 1919 at Jallianwalah Bagh. Probably that is the only battle won by Gurkha against Sikhs. As of now gurkha are called bahadur (brave) in Punjab and are much sought as domestic help and watchmen
Well done, gentlemen. Proud to have you part of our Armed Forces. Ayo Gorkhali !

What is more amazing about Gorkhas aside from bravery is their gentleness towards ordinary people and loyalty to where they pledge.
Congratulations to each and every Gurkha. Ayo Gorkhali!
Congratulations to one and all!
Well done all. We love our Gurkhas

Overrated typical western propaganda.
तपाईंको सेवाको लागि धन्यवाद
🙏
Congrats to all, love the Gurkhas and glad to have them in our army.
They have served this country so faithfully and with outstanding bravery on the field of conflict many have paid the ultimate sacrifice Thank you !
They get deported as soon as they jack in...cos we is a racist country.

Congrats to everyone. I wish them all a long & successful career..
Fabulous body of men. We are so proud to have you with us!
Well done . Congratulations to the Gurkhas !
Such gladness in my heart to see this. Congratulations and God bless you all.
Congratulations to each and every Gurkha.
Greeting from Australia!
We’re very privileged to have these brave soldiers on our side.
Brigade of Gurkhas feared for a reason. Well done lads.
Congratulations. Kudos to all…
Much Respect. You're more than welcome.
The Gurkha are legendary Soldiers that are world renowned. I'm glad we're on your side.
My father did 22 years in the army and he always had the most respect for the Gurkha’s. Very brave men.
Great Soldiers…we are very proud of you all.
Big Congrats-- the world is always short of Gurkhas, there can never be too many.
I love, love watching the Gurkha recruiting videos. They have worked so hard to get there, and remain humble and respectful - but I can tell you from experience; they make incredible soldiers and are as fit as a butchers dog. And, their drill is something to behold.

Congratulations to all
We are blessed to have them as part of our military. Very very fortunate they represent the United Kingdom 🙏🙏🙏🙏
The politest most smiling members of the mob you’ll ever meet.👍🏻
...and the deadliest, bravest, and most loyal of soldiers!
As an American, I think our military should recruit Gurkhas. They are very brave people.
Your military have lots of Nepali people now
Congratulations 🎊

What about churches?
@@MachivelianBear They're not under threat are they
@@MachivelianBear Unlikely the attackers would want to target Churches. Unless they deem a specific church too "woke".
"defend mosques" what about defending the British people
@@MachivelianBear Not many people attacking churches at the minute
Well done boys 😁😁😁 proud to have you in our army 🇬🇧 wish you the best of luck
Ive never served but I am extremely proud of the Ghurkas. A great honour to have these men part of our armed forces. Treat them with great respect.
The Gurkhas are a TOP fighting force and deserve the highest respect.👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍
I don't understand why Gurkhas are under these british now
Money lovers
Served with them in Cyprus 1974 the smartest troops ever
My friends live in Pokhara & their street is on one of the main training routes for the pre-selection boot camps...It is incredibly tough training even before selection, Good Luck to all the successful recruits... 🙏🙏🙏
Congratulations to all best wishes
Excellent seeing these young Warriors achieve their dreams.
Recently renovated all of the Gurkhas barracks nation wide, huge upgrade from what they had previously and proud I could do for them.
Thank you for all you do lads
The Gurkha regiment is comprised of truly fine men. It is an honour for the British Army to have them.
Fantastic. With all the recent news, it's refreshing to see these British loyalists.❤
The real loyalists in the British armed forces
They literally aren't British though
Congratulations to you all

yes to this type of immigration
Agreed
They are the guardians of the UK, unlike the current mob that is destabilising the country. They are honest and loyal.
Congratulations. We are so lucky to have you.
Fabulous Men
London’s Police take note
These are sharp , loyal and professional Men
Excellent work, well done Chaps! If only the British Army could have an entire Gurkha Division including a dedicated Gurkha Special Forces Regiment. Cheers.👍
Work hard be proud
Well done all! Thank you all for your service.
We’re not Americans needing to be thanked for serving.
3:10 so many uh
Gurkhas are the most honest people.... Here in india also we trust them a lot
They are really friendly but tough guys, they are just waiting for order from their seniors.
Jai gurkha jai nepal
Looks like their english has improved. Worked with quite a lot in Baghdad years ago. A lot could hardly speak english.
Better than any UK gen Z snowflakes that we produce. These. Days.
They will get the job in hand done.
Im Glad Joanna Lumley did and does what she does for them as well.
Respect.
I wish you all well 👍
Great warriors 👍
Three words the enemy doesn't want to hear:
- We're facing Gurkhas.
It's quoted somewhere the one enemy no one would want to face..........is a Gurkha.
It’s a pity Australia doesn’t have a regiment of Gurkhas, they would be quite welcomed in our country, The Australian government should think about recruiting these brave soldiers.
These men.... hard as a rock.
Good done UK. From Romania!
The gurkas are very brave. I feel sorry for them at this time in our history. No woke men there. Congratulations soldiers.

Gorkhali from Nepal ❤
I wonder what all them people on the street assaulting people would they tell these guys to go home 😒
The British public are not that stupid, they would welcome the Gurkhas to fight by their side!, and if you knew anything about them, then you’d know that they have a common enemy with us, and are one with us!
Top comment.
Gurkhas welcome here!
They are fierce soldiers, don't go after their innocent looks.
Jay Nepal jay gorkha
Jai Gurkha🇳🇵❤️🇬🇧
there are only 3,460 Gurkha's and think the British army should raise it to 5,000 plus.
duncan justice. 😊❤❤❤❤❤❤
Legends
Do any gurhkas tryout for airborne school?
Small but deadly man
Saddest thing is no one gives them career advice before they go to their respective regiments. Everyone ive talked to al goes with the whimp/flow..

Officer rank structure same as Indian Army because Britishers make Indian Army
British Army Gurkhas - NO finer soldiers!! 👍
It's a shame..!! Nepal is for Gurkhas.
Calling em blacky behind their backs, that's British culture
As a indian...i deeply concern about not being part of indian army anymore..gorkha was the backbone of our army...but due to the politics of indian govt ( modi govt ) they are not getting recruited in our forces anymore 😢
Do the Nepalese men get British citizenship after enlistment?
Like f...they get put on a boat mate..😂 aint we nice
Ally beret Rupert?
Outsourcing the Armed Forces of GB to the peoples of NEPAL and INDIA for its very owned people lacks the well to defend their own country.
Im ex forces myself.
Why do some of the Gurkas have them GREEN berets???
Are them, the LOGISTICS ones???
and the BLACK berets the INFANTRY??/
cool
Gurkhas should be only part of Indian Army not british
Safety life 😊🥰😋🤣😁
Are these the guys that like Gherkins?
Coming to own and operate a corner store near you. I am sure they care very much about the UK, and not their own pockets.
Gurkhas are brave mercenaries like the Wagner group and shall fight for anyone who pays them. Being mountain men they are exceptionally good at field and jungle craft. Unfortunately nepalese girls are sold into the sex trade in large numbers by their own kinsmen. Gurkhas make good soldiers but those without a conscience. More than 1000 unarmed Sikhs peacefully protesting against british colonial rule were massacred by machine gun weilding Gurkha soldiers under orders of Gen Dyer in 1919 at Jallianwalah Bagh. Probably that is the only battle won by Gurkha against Sikhs. As of now gurkha are called bahadur (brave) in Punjab and are much sought as domestic help and watchmen
Sort out pensions and pay they put own lives at risk just as much as any other uk soldier, or is a Gurkhas life worth less?.
SORT IT!
They should not join UK army.
More ghurkas means more problems for other countries.
