About time too

My Grandad fought alongside them. He never spoke about what happened to him in the war but he did tell me once the Gurkhas were the most courageous men he'd ever met.

My sympathy for the Gurkhas came from my grandfather too.
He fought alongside them and told me they were the most fearless fighters he's ever seen.
It's sad to see them have to fight for recognition after centuries of service with the British army and the loyalty they have shown our country.
They consider it an honour to be a Gurkha in the British army...above all else.
It's great to see justice done for these men.

Fascinating 6 part documenatary for those who are interested.
