Rather like a story I heard about the fierce Gurkha soldierss from Nepal. It was 1964 and Malaysia was at war with Indonesia. A group of Gurkhas were asked if they would be willing to jump from transport aircraft into combat against the Indonesians. Now, the Gurkhas had the right to turn down the request because they had never been trained as paratroopers.
Being world renown for their fearlessness, the Gurkhas usually agreed to anything. But on this particular occasion they rejected the plan. The next day, however, one of their NCO’s sought out the British officer who made the request. He said that his people had discussed the matter further and would be prepared, but only under certain conditions.
“Yes, and what are they?” the British officer asked.
The Gurkhas told him they would jump if the land were marshy or reasonably soft with no rocky outcrops. The British officer considered this and said that the drop area would be over marshy jungle, so that seemed all right. Anything else?
“Yes,” said the Gurkha. “We want the plane to fly as slowly as possible and no more than one hundred feet above the ground.”

The British officer was relieved and pointed out that the aircraft always flew as slowly as possible when dropping troops, but to jump from 100 feet was impossible because the parachutes would not open in time from that height.
“Oh, we get parachutes?” the Gurkha replied.

The Gurkhas are a product of Britain's colonial past. These Nepalese tribesman had distinguished themselves when fighting against British-backed forces in the early 19th century. The British were so impressed with the Gurkhas' fighting prowess and spirit that they began hiring them as mercenaries. Soon, dedicated Gurkha regiments were formed within the British Indian Army.
Gurkha combat history
The Gurkhas fought for the British during World War 2 in the Pacific, North African and European theatres.
Following Indian independence in 1948, several Gurkha regiments joined the Indian Army whilst others were incorporated into the British Army and were stationed in Malaya. Gurkha formations fought rebels during the Malayan emergency. Later, they were deployed to Brunei to help quash a revolt. A commando unit, the Gurkha Independent Parachute Company, was temporarily raised for deployment to Borneo during the Indonesia-Malaysia confrontation of the early sixties. The Gurkha commandos worked closely with the Special Air Service during the conflict.

The Gurkha's dreaded Khukri knife, as carried by every Gurkha soldier. It's rumoured that once drawn, the Khukri must draw blood before being re-sheathed.
The Gurkhas were deployed to the Falklands during the 1982 conflict. Despite having to deal with a completely foreign climate, landscape and the Antarctic weather, the Gurkhas were well up for a fight; only to be disappointed when the Argentine units they were to face surrendered when they learned it was the Gurkhas coming for them.
The Gurkhas also deployed alongside NATO forces during operations in Kosovo in 1999, working alongside the Parachute Regiment, where they helped secure the main routes into the country.
A contingent of Gurkhas, along with a small team of Special Boat Service (SBS) operators, flew into East Timor in September 1999 as part of a UN peace keeping force. The Gurkhas engaged in brief skirmishes with Indonesian forces around the main airport.

better a tool that dies in a skydiving accident than a tool that lives in a cubicle for 40 years. typed from the comfort of a couch. 
i do want to try that, though. with the parachute, if possible.
that would make a good poster. the image of one guy with a parachute, and one guy without, freefalling together. under the image, only one word: Trust.
