Gurkha recruits have been trialling what could become a new element of the British Army’s Combat Infantryman's Course.
'Wet gap crossing', which essentially involves crossing a river or body of water, is not currently included on the standard course.
The course is updated and reviewed every three years, and amid fears wet gap crossing skills were fading away, the Army is looking to potentially introduce it as part of the training.
We joined recruits for their training earlier this year.

Dad was a WWII tank commander in the GGFG (Canada). He had HUGE respect for the Gurkhas.
These mild mannered gentlemen are brave worriers, it is a privilege that the UK has them working with our military, they are feared for being ferocious fighters around the world. Thank you guys
@@HDilk U even know what a commie is? Or u just repeatin what the daily mail tells u?
@@gayleralan dude why so hostile
@@sponge1478 Not really hostile but whatever tickles your fancy. I guess it's because I'm a commie ⚒😂
@rat ye I did it
@Charmingly Cynical I'm from London and I'm definitely definitely not a Marxist wtf you waffling about
A Gurkha charging at you shouting "en garde" will put the fear of God into you I swear. 😂 Massive respect to WO2 Sherma for not only being a Gurkha but an Army Commando too.
They would say “Ayo Gorkhali”
@@Iamlamzino Sometimes yeah as that is the traditional thing to do, but in the video the Gurkha was shouting en garde as he closed in on the position with the intention of finishing off any enemy with his bayonet.
@@l3gionmusic814 Back in the day, Gurkhas had Khukuri charge in their training. (Not sure whether this still exists)
I've watched an interview of a Gurkha veteran where he says that the commander would exclaim "Aayo Gorkhali, thootyo Khukuri, Charge!!", which means "here come the Gurkhas, draw your Khukuris, Charge!!" in Nepali. Somewhere on RUclips, you'll find a footage of Gurkhas training during second World War in which they draw their Khukuri with their right hand and hold their rifles in their left hand and charge.
@@shubhankarbhattarai4241 they do still train to fight with the khukuri, but the bayonet is still quite a major part of British attack doctrine, as you can with his charge here around 0:58 it would be terrifying to be on the end of with bayonets fixed. Khukuri fighting they train in now is very close hand to hand fighting, almost like a martial art. You can see his sheathed in a ready position at 2:05
Gurkhas are so professional, such an honour to have them fight with us.
I s'pose hearing en garde while being rushed by a platoon of gurkhas would be the last thing the enemy hears. 😂😂
In actual battle they would shout “aayo Gorkhali”
Wait until they shout JAI MAHAKALI....
Gurkhas are and have always been amazing soldiers. So proud to have them fight alongside us.
What a great video. Well done guys. Professional, humble and that ever present smile. 😊👍🏻
I love seeing the Gurkhas.
Such humble brave loyal fearless warriors.
🙏The 🇬🇧Army gained the best in the world 205yrs ago.
A friend not foe in these men was the best decision ever made.
❤
I♥️their motto: Better to die than live a coward"
Dream to be there as a real Gurkha❤️❤️❤️
you arent a ghurka, you dont have internet access unless its family
@@Silentc71 I think he’s saying he wants to be a Gurkha not that he is one.
we are gorkhas but he is saying that he want to join the brithis army and want to go along with our tradition and fight along side with the brithis..
@@Silentc71 bro its not ghurka its gorkha or you can use gurkha
@@Silentc71 gurkha is ethnicity so he probably is gurkha technically
point of interest , the Gurkha brigade skill at arms teams always come out top each year in the team and individual events during the annual Regular Army Skill art Arms competition
Gurkhas are awesome. We are lucky to have such brave, loyal and cheerful allies as them
Today is the anniversary of the battle of Sindhulighadi where the British were defeated by Gurkhali troops. Jay Mahakali! 🇳🇵
Bro, did you just check Routine of Nepal Banda? 😂
@@shubhankarbhattarai4241 Hoina. I just know a bit of military history and use this day to troll a former classmate.
@@sangyedorje3564 That's nice! Back when I was in class 8, I was really into Nepalese military history. And now I'm interested in the history of the Brigade of Gurkhas.
@@shubhankarbhattarai4241 hlo 😅
Rematch? 😂
Thankyou for your SERVICE GOD BLESS YOU 💎
I invested in Crypto market last month but right now I'm enjoying the profit of my trade you can use $1000 and get $3000 less than 1 month time just ask me how
You are welcome
Good luck gentleman enjoy your new careers, the U.K. is proud to have you.
Ever respect and admiration for these lads.
That brings back memories...
Proud of Gurkha Solders because of their valour. Great respect to all🙏
Best wishes to Riflman Limbu and buddies. You're getting excellent training. A credit to the Ghurkas and your country.
Gurkhas are great soldiers, honourable, professional. So polite, respectful, humble yet I would not want to face them in combat. They were our enemy company when I trained at RMAS. I commanded a Gurkha section in late training where we conducted ambush drills. I was really enjoying myself and got carried away. The Gurkha corporal looked at me and politely said: "Sir, now I think it's time we die so we do not frustrate and confuse the young men!" I have come so many Gurung's; it's like Jones in a Welsh Regiment! I remember my army days with fondness. The best people I ever came across. Hard to find that today especially in civvie street!
Strange, but I always feel pleasantly emotional when I see Gurkhas being Gurkhas, something about the purity of spirit I think.
I'm so glad these guys are on our side
The Ghurkha's are awesome. After doing some research, there's a big incentive to join up as it pays better than what's on offer in their home towns. So competition is naturally quite high. And since there's a limited amount of space, the best will often make it through selection.
💪🇬🇧
Looking good lads crack on
Shutup you sausage
@@ryane7906 but why
Good drills...I note all the recruits carry khukris in thier webbing. Yep. Glad I'm on the same side!
The English can and should carry Seax's in honour of their saxon ancestry.
@@callummason6589 Thats an awesome idea
@@callummason6589 mmm I'm gonna have to Google that unfortunately :)
The Gurkhas are amazing!
Little known fact, the French conduct small arms training armed with croissants and cheese baguettes. They throw truffles in place of grenades. Pierre Desanslac was awarded the medallion lecoint fromage deguerre in WW2 for using these tactics when he retreated an entire division 36 miles on foot in one day.
Love the Gurkha. So straightforward, humble and humerous.😂😂🙏🙏🙏
Beautiful people and amazing soldiers. I so hope they feel at home here. If they asked anybody in the street, they would surely have their hand shaken and a drink bought for them.
yesterday was the anniversary of the battle of Sindhulighadi where the British were defeated by Gorkhali troops. Jay Nepal Jay gorkha ayoo gorkhali
aipugisakim aba ta jay nepal
Do Gurkha have to speak English through training like the French foreign legion speak French ? Good lads. I liked working with them. They make a lovely curry. Gurkhas can’t swim though.
During the recruitment process, the potential Gurkha recruits need to pass written a exam which includes an English section. They are tested on Grammar and Writing skills. They have a speaking test too.
Other than that, they go through an English language course during their 9 months' training. On the other hand, the British officers, on passing out from Sandhurst and joining the Gurkhas, need to take a Nepali language course in Nepal.
So, throughout the training they are instructed both in Nepali and English. They do need to master English as it needs to be on par with their British counterparts.
Great video!
Happy to see you santosh goley..
Pretty damn obvious bit of training. River and stream crossing is a part of every bushcraft course and hunter training course in NZ. Also a basic component of a NAVEX, wherever the ground suits. You have to wonder how it got taken out of the infantry training syllabus!
All round solid fellas
So incredible! I cannot wait to join!
🇬🇧 Fantastic benefit to the British army. Proud of them.
Life is war, but peace is a choice!
Wet and dry routine still gets me
Get em down X range in Sennybridge
That’s a nice range.
@@richardbourne6743 If you're a sadist. 😂
Love the Gurkhas
Is information on their kukuris classified or something? I can never find any info on them anywhere, even in videos like these... 🤨🤔
No sir ...it's actually khukuri ..... National weapon of NEPAL -gurkha ....There r plenty of vdos .... Even if I want to make ur own khukuri u can get some totriols vdos too .... JAY NEPAL JAY GURKHA .
Ilove nepali gurkhali
As sound (or better, trying to avoid making noise) is important in river crossings, how do you prevent making noises afterwards? I mean, when my boots get wet, they squish with every step, sometimes pretty audible...
We're looking at probably the fittest regiment in the British army.
Amazing.
Imagine training a platoon of these men up to SAS or SBS standard. Utterly Mental !!!
I agree with you entirely. I don't think these guys are that far off though, SAS take in Commandos, how much lower than Commandos do you think Ghurkahs actually are? Genuine question, I am curious to know. These guys are a special kind of special forces IMHO
@@rmcguire7033 they are still a rifle regiment using that doctrine and equipment. It's a big difference to special forces, even down to gurkhas using the SA80 which is good for very accurate whole section firing, area denial, controlled suppressive fire. Their job is to work with other arms (artillery, air support, armour etc) especially in high ground areas and doing the job of actually taking and most importantly holding key areas. Special forces choose weapons like AR carbines with self defense and less weight as a priority, or with certain tasks in mind like sniper or anti materiel rifles, need much more flexibility and are often totally alone on their jobs with little support. Their main work is recon, sabotage, anti insurgency rescue and other long range light infantry stuff.
Having said that though, what both units have in common is great infantry man work, fieldcraft and fitness levels.
Now Some Random Indian will claim "They are Indian not Nepalese and Gurkhas originated from India."😂😂😂😂
@Anubhab bro now everthing will change dont worry😂
@Anubhab your country endia needs us thats why india is so scared to lose nepal without we nepalese gorkhas your indian army is nothing so chill out little boy
@Anubhab abey khuutey paisa ka jarurat sabsey jyada tereko heh samjha isiliyeh tera bikari relatives bikh magney nepal atey heh😂😂jake puchley apney khandan sey😂
@Anubhab no man it is compulsory to join the indian army for nepalese
@@brijwallimbusubba9714 aaba sathi dhoti ko dhoti chyatne bela aaiaskyo
i don't understand. why to show all these stuff on youtube. it is quite a lot of information giving online. who knows how people will take these information and what they do with it. Just make motivational videos or something where barely any information is give.
The Gurkhas are fearless
Always great when an officer 'volunteers' his platoon lol 😆
That looks just like north Wales!
Even in Singapore as a Police Contingent.
They're someone to be feared and respect.
Once the Gurkhas come down, theres no way to hide or escape.
Criminals better pray.
My aim British army
Yes boys
Calm voice deadly reputation
Such nice guys you forget that they have a notorious reputation for being tough ruthless killers feared by any enemy…
Good job
I thought we were using the A3 now or have we not adopted it fully
They are being phased in gradually so some will have them and some are still using A2's, as @Ch Ad said training facilites wil likely be the last ones to get their hands on the new rifles.
Are the khukuri handle camo?
Ahhhhh the old huns head, I had an interesting conversation with someone about the name of this target
NEPAL 🔥🔥🇳🇵
They should be shouting “Ayo Gurkhali!”
It sure that Nepalese gurkhas are brave,but how can any one from Nepal say that indian army is nothing, indian is going to be advanced country, nepaly boys are taking training in national defence academy to become officer.India is not a small country like Nepal.India is a big power.
I hope they all pass.
Please so nimlar
Jai nepal❤😁

Severe case of high frequerncy ring twitter if a Ghurka were to run at you screaming EN-GARDE! .
GG from Shahs the
Loud speaker really use your voice man
ForcesTV! This was a really interesting and engaging video; the tempo and style of Ghurkas is different from other comparable units. Furthermore, we don't hear-much from/ get considerable access to, how the ghurkas do their mock-ups and exercises. It would be wonderful if the producer and film crew who brought us this, could stay, in proximity, potentially to cover additional culmination exercises.
😯😯wow🇳🇵💪💪👏

Jay Brigade of Gurkhas.
It's actually gorkha...british says it gurkha...

Pledging allegiance to which flag ?? Dying for which flag ? Or money ? British have brainwashed Nepalis into fighting for their national security. Just tell me over the century. Did anyone from Gurkha became the army general of British ?

After being used and abused they send these British gurkhas back to Kashmir disputed territory not Nepal...how sad
@Robert Cawley your rite we are fools to sit back and watch your evil ways after using and abusing the poor gurkhas.. after serving for queen and country you settle the brave men in Kashmir it's a disputed territory thanks to the British...
@Robert Cawley failed recruit ?? Me ?? No sir far from that ..
Real Gurkhas are in India 😁
