Awesome Facts Gorkha is the district of Nepal. At the time of PNS. Gorkhali are the one who is from gorkhali district and they fought with other states to unify nepal into one country, so they say the word aayo gorkhali cuz they were from gorkha. Well I feel proud that my ancestors were from gorkha district and they fought the war that unified single Nepal. I've hear that in tista river they used to wash the blood form the khukuri.

I remember a story about these lads, in the second world war they were being trained as parachutists in the Airborne division; and before their first training flight and drop, they were briefed on the fact they would be dropping out of the plane at 400 ft. This caused consternation and alarm within their ranks as they talked away in their own language among themselves. The officer impatiently interrupts the commotion to ask what is all the fuss about, when a Gorkha asks 'Sir, the men would prefer to be dropped out at 200 ft,'. To which the officer exclaimed 'Why? That is too low, the parachutes won't have time to open!' With this there was a collective sigh of relief among the Gorkhas, and the one who voiced their concerns said, 'ah, that is fine. We thought we were jumping without parachutes!'. They were prepared to jump out of a plane at 200 ft without!!! Says it all.

[@BingleFlimp]

I'm no military man nor am I too knowledgeable about matters such as these, however, looking into it it seems that the difference between Conspicuous Gallantry Cross and the Victoria Cross is that in order to get the Victoria Cross you have to do something that is not expected, for lack of a better word. What Dipprasad Pun did was he defended his position, if he didn't he was going to die. If he was in his position and saw another position was being overrun and he chose to run to and save the position then he may well have received the Victoria Cross. If you look at a few of the Victoria Cross recipients it tends to be that they put themselves at further risk in order to help others. If you look at some other Gurkhas who revied a victoria cross. Gaje Ghale chose to ignore his significant wounds during a conflict and chose to continue fighting and leading his men. Bhanbhagta Gurung's unit came under fire, first a sniper and later several foxholes and each time he abandoned his cover and charged the enemy.

[@BingleFlimp]

You can also compare the actions of Dipprasad Pun with those of his grandfather Tul Bahadur Pun who received the Victoria Cross.

[@nathodynommiter]

the only reason he didn't get it is because he is a mercenary not a soldier , but yes he more than earned and deserved it !

My uncle was with the VanDoos in the Korean war. While on guard duty in a foxhole on the front lines he and his platoon were instructed to tie their boot laces in a certain way, and to keep them that way. Without explanation. It turns out that a platoon of Gurkhas was going on an exploritory mission and would be crawling into foxhole holes looking for the enemy by feeling how their laces were tied. If your boot laces were not tied as instructed you were deemed to be the enemy and subject to being beheaded. My uncle told us that captured enemy soldiers were absolutely terrified of having to face Gurkhas. He also told us that these soldiers were fearless, respectful, humble and did everything at double time. In all my uncle's career he stated that their best allies ever were the Gurkhas.

[@willscathlocke2512]

In all fairness, the VC is awarded only very rarely, and often enough posthumously -- of the fourteen since WW II, 8 were posthumous. The last non-posthumous award was in 2005 to a Grenadian private, Johnson Beharry -- if you're keeping track of race, Beharry is not white. The last non-posthumous award in the British Army before that was in 1965, forty years earlier: it was awarded to (then) Lance Corporal Rambahadur Limbu of the 10th Gurkha Rifles. (Two soldiers in the Australian army also received non-posthumous VCs in the late 60s.) Brave and valorous as L.Cpl. Pun's actions were, they're weren't quite up to the standard required for a VC. Take Rambahadur Limbu's actions on Borneo: Two soldiers from his detachment had been wounded and were lying where Indonesian soldiers could fire directly on them. One of them had been carrying the group's Bren gun as well. Limbu, whom other Gurkhas were trying to cover, attempted to get close enough to rescue his two wounded comrades. However, he soon decided that he would just have to make a run for it. To the utter amazement of those covering him, he simply sprang up, ran straight into the line of Indonesian fire and, with bullets flying all round him, picked one man up and carried him to safety. He had cheated death once, but that still left one wounded comrade to rescue, and to the shock of the others Limbu, having set down the first wounded man, turned round and ran right back into a hail of bullets. He picked up the second man and brought him back too. Death cheated twice. Yet the unit's Bren gun was still out there. One guess as to L.Cpl. Limbu's next action. Having secured the Bren gun, he then led his unit against the Indonesians' position; in the ensuing action he killed four Indonesians. This is the sort of thing for which the VC is awarded. N.b., by the way, the sequence of L.Cpl. Limbu's actions: first, rescue comrades; second, secure gun; third, lead attack. Incidentally, it was only when the Indonesians were in full retreat that Limbu noticed on his uniform the bits of brain from one of the two men whom he had rescued. Sadly, both later succumbed to their injuries.

"If a man says he's not afraid of dying, he's either lying or he's a Gorkha" - Sam Manekshaw. They are the bravest men on this planet. No doubt about that. We Indians are privileged to have some of them in our Army. Love you Gorkha Regiment❤

[@akashgurung9844]

Well done my Gorkhe Brother

[@fratercontenduntocculta8161]

He was there when I was only a few months into my first Afghan deployment. Dude is tough as nails, God bless the Gurkhas!

THE GURKHAS -- BRAVE NEPALESE PEOPLE.... OF NEPAL......PROUD TO BE ONE OF THEM...

[@ramadaxl]

All hail the Gurkhas ! Mess with the best...die like the rest.

[@pravindahal775]

Brave son of country NEPAL. He is just a Nepali son, there are many GURKHAS in NEPAL . Proud of Country.

[@crissmullen5528]

Wow!!! I have heard alot about these great warriors but wow It brings a tear to my eyes and I dont think I can adequately say how much they should be admired and respected God bless the Gurkhas and thanks!!!

[@lilmonkey9919]

I've met a few Gurkhas who where actively serving when they came to Wales for a Visit. They are lovely people and are best Soldiers ever. We was doing a Project together which was remembering those who died in WW1. It was a Project which was done by people all over the U.K and we dressed up in replica WW1 uniforms and Marched for miles. It was a theater project and we was all over the News and Social Media. So proud to be apart of it.

[@edwardscissorman6693]

much more respect at the gurkha soldier i hope the ministry of england put more financial support to their family and have equal rights as of british soldier give them proper salary they earn it........greetins from philippines...salute.

[@gurungpatrick373]

[@gurungpatrick373]

+edward scissorman and i love the foods! :D

[@jackalfox332]

The majority of British are incredibly proud and nationalistic when it comes to the British Armed Forces, yet somehow they (we) seem to reserve a very special kind of admiration for the Gurkhas that other British branches, battalions, regiments etc. would love to receive. They really are something quite special, its difficult to say what exactly. Incredible soldiers and personalities.

Gurkhas and Sikhs are the greatest fighters. Respect. British and Indian militaries are lucky to have them.

[@realeyes.realize.reallies.6230]

If a person says he's not afraid of dying then either he's lying or he's a Gurkha. A Gurkha is trained to Get the work done, No matter what, if he dies his ghost continues to fight. That's how a Gurkha is trained.

[@bronzymcgrady1159]

Gurkhas are awesome.. Even new zealand soldiers respect the incredible gurkha!!

[@pranavr9783]

Gurkha were also in galepoli in Anzac war. As Australian from nepali decendent I am very proud of my ansestors. British officer said Gurkha were worth every gold that they cost. And also said if they had more Gurkha galepoli would never have cost as much as it did. Even a beach in Turkey was named as Gurkha beach. They achieved something many didn't think it was achievable. Gurkha were in British side of the campaign and were one of the first to enter and last to leave. 200000 of them served in WW1 and I believe all Nepali decendent are proud of New Zealand especially the man that climbed Everest and is also in today newzeland money. 😀 I hope you know who I mean. I know all newzeland know of him but just giving some friendly riddle. Something else to be proud of. Newzeland a country with the clearest water and the inventor of Bungy jump. I have visited both island of newzeland. And did not knew it was once part of nsw. A state in Australia. Either way I think newzeland is one of the greatest and chill nation in world. I mean who abolished there job for better future I mean no upper class for law to be made. 🙏 I just love nz

[@Itsjaysuknow12]

Did y’all see the intensity in his eyes when he said “Before they kill me, I’ll kill them”

[@chadcj2077]

1 gurkha vs 15 taliban isn't fair. Even if they had 50 talibans, they would've still been defeated by one gurkha

The man should have got the Victoria Cross. Case closed. Respect, young man.

[@thomassmestead6424]

Thank you for your service to Britain and the rest of us.

[@coverdale1]

30 years ago a friend was in the British Army. Just before he went out for sentry duty one night the sergeant called the sentries together to tell them that Gurkhas would be coming through the lines that night but they wouldn't see them or hear them. My friend thought 'I'm an experienced professional soldier, I'll be able to spot them'. He concentrated on spotting the Gurkhas and only realised they had gone through the lines when he found his shoelaces had been tied together.

[@FfejTball]

He should've gotten the VC.

[@feldwebel5]

Totally agree! That's the first thing I thought after the short citation, which really couldn't describe his 15 minutes of pure and continuous fighting.

[@talboters44]

without doubt. they are incredible chaps none finer in the world my uncle fought with them

[@TheAverlorn]

It sucks that the British army chooses to make the Gurkha infantryman salary so low in comparison. They should have the same salary as every other British soldier of the same job. The salary gap is huge!

[@FfejTball]

TheAverlorn Yeah, that's pretty blatant racism if you ask me. I'd like to see England fix that, but I'm not gonna hold my breath.

[@talboters44]

FfejTball I agree wholeheartedly. But when do Parlimentarians in any country look after anybody but themselves.

[@KikiTay]

I have so much, SO MUCH respect for the Gurkhas! They are extremely honorable men who are incredibly brave, loyal and courageous! I remember the first time I had the honor to meet one, that handshake I got was memorable! There was a saying: “If a man says he is not afraid to die, he is either lying or he is a Gurkha”

[@georgebardsley7129]

The loyalty and bravery these men give for country that they weren’t born to is amazing. 🇬🇧💙🇳🇵

[@rajkumarmandal6937]

[@davidshields3093]

My Grandfather was a British Soldier in WWII, serving in India when war broke out, he ended up serving with Indian and Nepalese Ghurkhas fighting against the Japanese in South East Asia. Had a lot to say about the Bravery of both. But the Gurkhas in particular. He Said of the Gurkhas that the Japanese forces were terrified of them and would often flee when they realized who they were fighting.

[@aewhatever]

It's in their blood. They dont even have to give an effort. Just natural instinct. Very passionate fighters

[@johnfothergill1581]

Its an immensely proud honour to have the Gurkha,s serve as part of the British army,such an elite fighting force

[@SuperDancingdevil]

Hero’s all, But never mess with a Gurkha who is not afraid to die and is determined to take as many of the enemy with him and if he draws his Kukri he’s going to take a lot with him, The Gurkhas deserve nothing but the utmost respect for their Bravery, Loyalty and Tenacity, This Gurkha deserved the Victoria Cross in my opinion.

[@kencox6166]

why only the second highest award, should have got a VC

[@007robinhoodlove5]

Bcoz ..his grand father got one so it might be his respect to his grandfather ..

[@michaelw.6130]

Hooray for the British people and their allies. The Gurkhas have a long and honorable tradition with the British. I'm a 20 year retiree from the U S Marine Corps myself. God bless the British people. God bless the USA. In case you need to know, I'm of Norwegian and Apache ancestery. . Have a happy!

then why are your army so afraid to fight India...why using terrorists....it means they shit their pants thinking about bangladesh

My both father and Uncle also served in the British Army. He is now 80 years old. My whole family came to UK back in May 2016. I even went to school and made so many friends , they all were so friendly. My English wasn't that good back then but despite that I used to play with them all time. I can never forget that school, friends and those amazing teachers. Very good memory of mine.

[@lafamgr4921]

although Pun is their last name, they are not blood-related. but we can say that in a sense that PUNs are Magars and Magars are the clans regarded by the British as martial clans of Nepal just like Gurungs, Rais and Limbus.

When you fight with or against a Gurkha you know you faught against the greater warrior earth have ever seen. How rare is it.when the enemy that you fight against praise you for bravery. Respected worldwide for there courage. Gurkha are protector first and to protect there cause they will kill to live. Rather than surender which break troop moral. Atleast you know with Gurkha there is never derseters. A unit that will never fail you in battle unless death overtakes. Even after death they will remembered by both side of conflicted parties for there action in battle.

[@pranavr9783]

Can't believe this news was atleast 9 years ago. I thought it was just last 2 year. Well again Gurkha bravery can't be forgotten
