For sheer ballsiness though, I have to give a hat tip to CCTs.
Their jobs are essentially to capture an area and build an international airport at the same time. And run it.

Nice read, Fletcher.
As to "getting a life," I'm one who GOT his life because of joining the military. It's where I learned aircraft maintenance, something I countinue to do to this day.

It doesn't beat the article I read where he was bludgeoning 30 of them to death with a sandbag. You can't trust anything you read to be accurate these days.

The Canadian Sniper divisions are some of the best trained warriors in the world.
Same with the Aussie Sniper/Trackers
RoK Marines (Republic of Korea) are some of the craziest guys I ever trained with, and extremely well trained.
Force Recon Marines (now called MARSOC "Marine Special Operations Command) Some of the most highly trained warriors in the world. They, like most other elite soldiers/warriors train with all the other allied/brotherly elite forces.
Israeli Special Forces are nothing short of outstanding.
for more information on the worlds elite forces.. you can find links here

Lmao I was reading the entry on Canada's JTF2 (they should be looking at Candian artillery divisions and what they showed to the world). They are our new "highly secret" counter terrorist special forces group. It says their location is highly secret etc.... Lmao I know exactly where their main training grounds are heheh hell it kept making it on the newpapers with the nearby farmers protesting being followed by military personel in jeeps. This persisted till a court order prevented the harrassment from continuing. I've been down where it is a few times. Not sure it's really that secret of a location though.
Kudos to the Gurkha, however, they are the cream of the crop of their army over there and I'm not surprised he had the courage to hold out. Any army loves a man who is willing to stand his post "and kill a few enemies before I got killed"
