From the Daily Mail:
A Gurkha soldier who single-handedly defeated more than 30 Taliban fighters has been awarded the Conspicuous Gallantry Cross by the Queen.
Corporal Dipprasad Pun, 31, described how he was spurred on by the belief that he was going to die and so had nothing to lose in taking on the attackers who overran his checkpoint in Afghanistan.
His gallantry award is second only to the Victoria Cross – the highest honour for bravery in the face of the enemy…
You’d think that it would have been worthy of the Victoria Cross, wouldn’t you?
Tell you what – how about we just put together a mixed unit of Marines, Rangers, Special Forces and Gurkhas and just let them settle out Afghanistan as they see fit…pull out the reporters and bureaucrats and let men deal with it as men should?
Just a suggestion…
