The largest Gurkha intake in more than 30 years has found out their regimental homes, with a record number being selected for their first choice unit. While the trainees still have 12 weeks to go before they are qualified, the Gurkha cap badging tradition, in which recruits find out their new regiment, moves them one step closer. The decision is based first on the recruit’s preference, but then on their performance and instructor recommendations, as well as trying to ensure a balance of recruits from eastern and western Nepal across all regiments. In total, 90% of recruits were picked for their first choice - a 6% rise on last year.
