Who Will Be a Gurkha plot

The Gurkha Brigade has been a special unit within the British army for two hundred years, for which boys from the mountain villages of Nepal are recruited. Known for their bravery and combativeness, the Gurkhas fight like regular British soldiers in areas such as Iraq and Afghanistan. They consider it a great honor to be part of this brigade - but perhaps the British salary will help too. Some are well educated, others have been trained by shady 'academies'.
