Michael Yon trains with the Gurkhas

I’m here in Brunei training with the 1st Royal Gurkha Rifles (1RGR) and have spent three days with them so far.  Saturday’s mission was to locate an Afghan district leader and try to start a dialogue, but there is an active enemy out there trying to “kill” us.   http://www.michaelyon-online.com/gurkha.htm   [The regiment I'd most like to help with their showers.]  “No man, nor any body of men, is good enough, or wise enough, to dispense with the tonic of criticism” – T H Huxley
