Excited Gurkha recruits arrive in UK to begin British Army career
3,248This year's intake of recruits to the Brigade of Gurkhas has arrived in the UK, stepping off a plane and into a new life in the British Army.
For the 337 recruits who are beginning their basic training, reporting for duty is a unique experience, one that is not shared by any others joining the Armed Forces.
For a start, they have travelled 4,500 miles to be here, which for most of them was their first time on a plane.
