DhirajOjha, go do some research before blabbering off.

The Gurkhas were deployed to the Falklands well before the war ended. And they were active in combat missions.

Currently, they are very much in the thick of the war against the Taliban. Again, please look it up and you'll see.

Also you had mentioned that the Scottish, Welsh regiments were scrapped? Check out http://www.army.mod.uk/unitsandorgs/regiments_battalions.htm and you will see that there are Irish, Welsh and Scottish regiments still present in the British Army.

And what's up with the language and the oversized fonts?? They don't make your case any stronger!!
