I have long been an admirer of Gurkha warriors. Gurkhas have a long tradition of courage under arms.
Bishnu Shrestha re-asserts the Gurkha's reputation.

Lone Man With A Blade Prevents Gang Rape
"A 35 year-old Gurkha soldier named Bishnu Shrestha was riding a train when he suddenly found himself in the middle of a massive robbery. 40 men armed with knives, swords and guns stormed the train and began robbing the passengers.
Bishnu kept his peace while the gang snatched cell phones, jewelry and cash from other riders. But then, the thugs grabbed the 18 year-old girl sitting next to him and forcefully stripped her naked. Before the bandits could rape the poor girl in front of her helpless parents, Bishnu decided he had enough.
“The girl cried for help, saying ´You are a soldier, please save a sister´,” Shrestha recalled. “I prevented her from being raped, thinking of her as my own sister.”
He pulls out a kukri and proceeds to kill 3 of them, injure 8 of them, and causes the rest to flee.During the battle, he suffered a severe knife injury to his left hand, from which he's now recovered."
