I believe the British had a lot of trouble with the Gurkhas,
Yes, they did but a long time ago. Now the Ghurkas serve with pride in the British Army. They may be short (as in height) but you really don't want to get on the wrong side of them. My next door neighbour is a former Sgt Major in the Ghurkas. He retired and now lives in the UK with his family.
