Gurkha: 25 Years of The Royal Gurkha Rifles - Hardcover

"A pictorial celebration of 25 years of the Royal Gurkha Rifles, this book is crammed with more than 500 images of the brave soldiers past and present...Lawrence wanted to include as many of the men as possible as a tribute to those who had served and continue to serve in the RGR."-- (10/10/2019)

A pictorial history of The Royal Gurkha Rifles. An introduction to this remarkable regiment, its operational deployments abroad and at home supported by a wealth of photographs chronicling its quarter century of service to the Crown. This unique insight into one of the world's elite fighting units includes descriptions of operational deployments in Afghanistan, the Balkans, Sierra Leone and East Timor, as well as special interest sections covering recruiting, sport, adventure training, snipers, tracking and, of course, the kukri fighting knife. The Roll of Honour, its Battle Honours (including those of its antecedent regiments), honours and awards received by members of the Regiment and a brief history of Britain's Gurkhas are amongst the detail amassed in this special edition.
