| Quote: the cal train "never heard a story about Gurkhas being anything other than the bravest hardest b*stards in the army'"
rlThis is my favouriterl.
[iOn 12/13 May 1945 at Taungdaw, Burma [now Myanmar], Rifleman Lachhiman Gurung was manning the most forward post of his platoon which bore the brunt of an attack by at least 200 of the Japanese enemy. Twice he hurled back grenades which had fallen on his trench, but the third exploded in his right hand, blowing off his fingers, shattering his arm and severely wounding him in the face, body and right leg. His two comrades were also badly wounded but the rifleman, now alone and disregarding his wounds, loaded and fired his rifle with his left hand for four hours, calmly waiting for each attack which he met with fire at point blank range. Afterwards, when the casualties were counted, it is reported that there were 31 dead Japanese around his position which he had killed, with only one arm.[/i

Great link I'll use that when my eldest daughter flies back from Rhodes next Weds - I used the airport's own Arrival/ Departure online boards to follow her flight out there this week (parents will understand) but the one for Rhodes airport doesn't seem to want to update British carriers, its a bit alarming when you're logging on seven hours after they left the UK to see a "Not Arrived" message against their flight, only slightly re-assuring when you realise that all the UK charter operators have the same status

Oh it's very geek-ish, even the daughter goes on it, if nothing else it helps with her geography
