EXCLUSIVE: Becoming A Gurkha

With the British Army facing its biggest shortfall in over a decade, one area where it isn't a struggle to find recruits is Nepal.
Of the 10,000 applicants wanting to become Gurkhas this year, only 320 will be chosen.
That’s 31 candidates registered for every available space.
Forces News was given exclusive access to see this year’s potential recruits being put through their paces during a selection day in Nepal.
