Gurkhas

Bands are fun to watch!






The Band of The Brigade of Gurkhas
Music: Sirtaki (Zorba the Greek)
Military Tattoo Bremen 2000




That is not why we have Armies.




" Indian Army Gurkhas , 'Better to die in battle than live a coward" is produced by Parag Shah of Global Mavericks using clips from the bollywood blockbuster ' Line of Control' showing the Gurkhas bravery during the Kargil conflict.


But the cost is not cheap, though often less than the alterntive.

Sorry, Hank, I have been experiencing computer problems myself and so this is my first visit for a while. I saw the Ghurka band do that very number in the grounds of Montacute House (see link) on a perfect, English late-summer evening, ending of course with the buglers sounding 'Sunset'. Magical!
