Does UK really need gurkhas? I welcome anyone who has served, has family serving, or is knowledgeable to speak out about the arrangement between Nepal and UK to provide soldiers for UK's international fights. Won't they be better utilized elsewhere, such as in UN peacekeeping operations, or even closer to home? What do you say? Shall Nepal stop supplying their young men? What say you? Note: I'm not saying disband them, I'm just wondering if there is enough cause/support to stop sending them to UK anymore. Thanks for your input!
