Cold Awakening For Britain's Newest Gurkha Recruits | Forces TV 

The second boy is my sibling! So proud of you, my dear! You spoke well xox 💖

It disgusts me that these warriors can serve in the British army but after that they have to plead for citizenship. Yet others get welcomed from doing nothing.

Hey look!! It’s me!! 2:04

These fine men are a credit to Nepal and to the UK.

A British passport for these men after their service

It's a sad fact that the Government will attempt to deport these brave souls from the UK when they have finished with their military service. *ANY* Foreign National that serves in the military that's not of their own for no less than 5-8 years or has been deployed in active war zones overseas should automatically granted an honorary citizenship and receive a right to remain if they so choose to. There is no warrior race in the world that are braver, courageous and honorable in the world then the Nepalese Gurkha's and the British Government disrespects them by sending back to Nepal after they have fought and bled for British Ideals in far away foreign lands fighting enemies that arent their own. Thank you to Joanna Lumley who has campaigned for these honorable folk to receive the same rights as British and Commonwealth counterparts. Brave hardworking folk like the Gurkha's will be welcomed with open arms and a credit to any community wherever they choose to settle. I am of Chinese descent. But I was born in the UK. My parents are from Hong Kong but I will never forget that Gurkha's helped defend Hong Kong starting from 1814 and all the way to the handover back in 1997 as part of the British Army. You have bled for Britain and people of Hong Kong. There is no highest honor that can be awarded for your courage in the protection and defence of my countries My deepest love and respect to you and thank you to you and your families.

I've had the great privilege of working with these amazing men for a year, as a US Navy Petty Officer 2nd Class in Bahrain. Working long hours in our host nations Royal Bahrain Air Force, the Gurkhas would tell us stories of their lives and their service. Hardened soldiers having seen violent combat, to true gentlemen enjoying the company of their brothers in arms. They would keep us laughing and passing the time with games. But, when it came time to put in work, these men were efficient, thorough and tireless. Out performing our most physically capable US Sailors! These men have my highest respect and I am honored to have served with them.

Massive respect to all Gurkhas' travelling from far away to fight for a distant country. Thank you to all of them for their service and good luck.

These mountain folk make courageous fighters, as they're tough as nails, hard working as mules and obedient to a fault. The British Army is lucky to have them, so MoD, how about treating them with the respect they deserve, m'kay?

If a man tells you he is not afraid to die he is either a liar or a Gurkha. Good luck to them all they do both Britain and Nepal proud.

Never had a country more faithful friends than you

Starbucks - the problem wasn't the Nepalese names - it was the Bradford accent!!

The most humble, loyal, brave and aggressively fearless soldiers on the planet. Be it men, aliens or zombies, they will fight and win against whomever is their foe.

These men are already more British than some people who were born in the UK.

I have eternal admiration and respect for these young men. I truly believe they're some of the finest soldiers on earth.

My great grandpa served with Gurkhas in World War 2 and had amazing stories of Gurkhas killing entire units of the Japanese at night with knives while they were sleeping.

Such a great young man! Good luck! I had an opportunity to see Gurkhas in action when there was a peacekeeping mission in Bosnia and Herzegovina! They were so proud and professional!

Fantastic soldiers with a proud history, in ww2 the japanese feared them, citizenship shouldnt be a question, it should be a right. The Gurkhas i met were very friendly and respectful.

Love from Indians ,,we respect u ,and proud of being always in your side

And I’m literally into tears watching this video/ I know how much hardship they did in order to earn the title “British army “ . Stay strong and may success kisses you all . Jai gorkhali 🇳🇵

My grandfather fought alongside with the Gurkhas in Malaysia in the jungle fighting communist rebels. He loved them great fighters and loyal and trustworthy he even had a kukri knife tattoo on his leg.

These fine young men are smart, well presented and are a credit to their country and to their regiment. Much love and respect and best wishes for your careers and your lives.

These guys are a credit not only to their own country but also to ours. I salute our Gurkha brothers.

So much respect for these lads. To come over here from another country, into a completely different environment and serve in our forces deserves a lot of props. Takes a special kind of person to do that and from what I hear from friends in the military they earn every bit of their reputation as hard bastards. Good luck to them.

Respect to you all, from England.

This nepali people are humble and hardworking people, if this is the way to reach their dreams then goodluck lads. Love from Philipines

These warriors are more than welcome here. See you around men :)

Ex Royal Marines Commando here 17 years service active and otherwise . I have worked with these Ghurkas over the years excellent attitudes great soldiers and worthy comrades with an illustrious history serving Great Britain , I was always pleased to see these guys as you knew they would never let you down on whatever task they were give great bunch of guys .

They look so proud, just heartwarming.

Good luck lads!

if all the visitors to the UK were as respectful as this they would all be welcome IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN

Nothing but complete respect for these guys, thank you for your service

We owe you all a debt of gratitude. I take my hat off in admiration. Thank you very much.

I am also waiting for that moment hope I can I will

I had the privilege of working with the royal ghurka signals when I was a scaley back. Most of these new recruits are already fitter than most soldiers before they even start training. Respect.

I have a lot of respect, for these guys. They are without a doubt, true warriors.

Served with 48 Gurkha Bde in Brunei with 1st/2nd and 2nd/2nd KEO. The QGOs, WOs, SNCOs and ORs are all, without exception, gentlemen and deserve the highest respect! Top blokes!

A brilliant and well disciplined fighting force. Well done lads.

They all seem so sweet and so polite. UK is very lucky to have them.

I offer my deepest thanks and respect to these men. Good luck and may your God bless you.

Fine soldiers with a great history and reputation. Cheers from a retired USN CPO!

Welcome lads! Good luck with your basic.

Awww Our brothers' generosity is sublime. Lots of Love & Respect!

I find these magnificent young men incredibly inspiring. Britain is extremely fortunate to have them.

Pity to see these young boys who has so much strength and boiling blood in them to get deployed in the frontline in the battleground to die. It's honestly more heartbreaking how they are ready to die fighting for any other nation.

I always feel inspired seeing the Gurkas- they are such fine soldiers and a true credit to the British Army!

Respect guys and good luck to you all !

Bold, brave, courageous and humble. If you ever get a chance to meet these guys and spend time with them do so.

I live in Aldershot so God bless the Gurkha, you are one of us!

Nothing but respect for Gurkhas. Fantastic set of lads

Hats off to all of these gentlemen, what a great example they show to us all , they could certainly teach our UK youngsters of today a lesson in manners and self dignity . I salute and give thanks to each and everyone of you.

Always feel Happy to watch them....We are also greatful to have Gorkha Soldiers in Indian army 💜

Captain Price Walks In: "I'm Assembling a New Task Force" New Recruits: 😲😲😲

Gurkhas are resilient badass!! Recently I read a Gurkha mother fought and killed a leopard by hand that attacked her.

Much respect for these men. Thank you for coming from Nepal. Thank you for serving:) One day I hope to sign up as an RAF engineer. When I'm old enough

They seem so polite and courteous. Brave warriors too.

Their discipline is impeccable. British youths can learn from them.

respect for the brave man who choose this path

We worked with them as the enemy force at the Brecon Beacons during NCO training. Absolutely amazing discipline and when you think you can march with weight you are no match to these guys, they just yomp uphill and continue to smile all the way. Just massive respect for them, if all of the units in the Army were this disciplined the British Army would be indestructible. At the end of their service, they should be handed a British passport as a thank you from the UK.

proud of every single one . great great men .

Massive respect to the Gurkhas. Welcome to Yorkshire lads.

God Bless and keep them! REAL MEN! -from the US.

So much respect for these men

Excellent men! The pride of Nepal and a great credit to Britain. These Men train hard and long, they are humble, brave and loyal. We are blessed to have them with us!

I can't believe how much respect these guys are getting, handshakes even. Wow.

@1:15 looking at those two would scare me back to katmandu ! omg i hope they help them well

So proud of these boys. God bless them

These are humble & kind people too! very friendly & funny!

I am non military and never served my country. But by god those Nepalese boys who want to serve in the British army make me so proud. £billions invested in Iraq/Syria when it should be our allies homes and villages we should be helping.

Legends, the lot of them

Welcome and good luck lads!

Big respect for the Gurkha. My father loved you guys when he served. We had quite a few Gurkha knifes and stuff kicking around growing up.

Welcome to sunny England!!! you are going to love the weather...

So much respect!

Just stumbled upon this, from the USA, but this is seriously so amazing. Seems beneficial to everybody involved.

Great to see the new recruits , very polite young men .

“I heard that there will be hard drinks,so i will enjoy it more” spoken like a true GURKHA! Make you country proud brother.

Welcome to the best army in the world, and welcome to Yorkshire!

You're doing great brothers! 👍 #LovefromIndia #GorkhaFromIndia

These young men make Nepal proud. And me. And our country. These soldiers are the best of the best...and they have chosen to fight for the United Kingdom. If I could have welcomed them in person, I would have.

gurkha know as the most loyal army after japan in 90's...regards from malaysia

If I failed to to become a singer then I will be there in gurkha army. I will be doing what my ancestors did

I admire people with convictions.

These gentleman look humble and innocent but will annihilate anyone in a battle... India is also greatful to have them...God bless gurkhas

Ya'll better off having these dudes become citizens than other dudes from certain countries.

The second boy had really good accent

Massive respect to these guys they deserve more from us

I remember when i was in catterick and i came across them at the naffy, they would shake my hand and call me sir regardless of my rank. love them and will always!

I worked with the Gurkhas when I was in the paras fantastic guys second to none ,but they are treated badly by our government,they would have more rights if they were illegal immigrants,time this anomaly was rectified !

Sikhs and Gurkhas are rated as the most relentless and fearless throughout history. God bless them 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Proud of them preserving their own language keep it up

Bravo new recruits!!! Best wishes

I am here to read these comments 👆👇

Such is their bravery that Forces from Round the world welcome them including Indian army

They are so polite, respectful and strong. Wonderful.

From a Native american from the USA, to the young gurkahs i wish em luck BUDS

Does anybody think Canada could get in on the agreement with Nepal and recruit our own Gurkha regiment?

Thank u britian

We need to respect them. Hats off.

So much respect for these amazing people 👏👏👏
