			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> 	The <a href="http://www.lightmediation.net/blog/index.php/tag/gurkhas/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Voir les articles taggés avec gurkhas">Gurkhas</a>. One of the most highly respected infantry <a href="http://www.lightmediation.net/blog/index.php/tag/soldiers/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Voir les articles taggés avec soldiers">soldiers</a> in the world. Men acknowledged as &laquo;&nbsp;the bravest of the brave&nbsp;&raquo;, whose enemies tremble at their motto, &laquo;&nbsp;Better to die than be a cowar&nbsp;&raquo; and shake at the sight of the Khukri, their famous traditional knife. The <a href="http://www.lightmediation.net/blog/index.php/tag/gurkhas/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Voir les articles taggés avec gurkhas">Gurkhas</a> have fought exclusively for the <a href="http://www.lightmediation.net/blog/index.php/tag/british/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Voir les articles taggés avec british">British</a> in just about all their military campaigns from the 19th century up to this day. They were involved in both World Wars, during which the number of <a href="http://www.lightmediation.net/blog/index.php/tag/gurkhas/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Voir les articles taggés avec gurkhas">Gurkhas</a> in <a href="http://www.lightmediation.net/blog/index.php/tag/british/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Voir les articles taggés avec british">British</a> regiments reached a record level of roughly 100,000 men. However these men, who sacrificed their youth and often their health, leaving behind their family and children for years at a time, are nowadays left by the wayside, virtually penniless&#8230;</p>
<p>Les <a href="http://www.lightmediation.net/blog/index.php/tag/gurkhas/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Voir les articles taggés avec gurkhas">Gurkhas</a>. Une des infanteries les plus respectées du monde. Ils font partie de ceux qui sont reconnus comme &laquo;&nbsp;les braves parmi les braves&nbsp;&raquo;, ceux dont la devise &laquo;&nbsp;plutôt mourir que d&#8217;être lâche&nbsp;&raquo; fait frissonner autant que la vue de leur célèbre couteau traditionnel, le Khukuri. Ces <a href="http://www.lightmediation.net/blog/index.php/tag/gurkhas/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Voir les articles taggés avec gurkhas">Gurkhas</a> ont participé, pour le compte exclusif des britanniques, à presque toutes les campagnes militaires du 19ème siècle à nos jours et notamment aux deux guerres mondiales pendant lesquelles le nombre de <a href="http://www.lightmediation.net/blog/index.php/tag/gurkhas/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Voir les articles taggés avec gurkhas">Gurkhas</a> dans les régiments britanniques a atteint des niveaux records avec quelques 100 000 hommes. Pourtant aujourd&#8217;hui, ces hommes qui ont sacrifié leur jeunesse, souvent leur santé, laissant famille et enfants au pays pendant plusieurs années, sont quasiment laissés-pour-compte et sans ressources&#8230;</p>
