Some North Vietnamese soldiers. Those guys were pretty good, if I recall correctly. Maybe 325B is available for foreign duty.

1. No no no. What Imperial Amerika needs is some HESSIANS.

Now that we have become the nation the Founding Fathers rebelled against, it would be quite fitting.

2. We already hired the Gurkas

That's no lie. Actually I think Haliburton did for personal bodygaurds but at this point what's the difference :shrug:

4. they still do serve in the British Army

not as many as used to (most served in India, and then Hong Kong), but some are still there. The income is an appreciable part of the rural Nepalese economy; there's a dispute about the size of the pension they get (the British government gives them a pension 'to give the same standard of living in Nepal as a British soldier gets in Britain', ie a lot less money than British soldiers get, while they want the same money). While serving they do get the same money.
