The SAS would be easy to motivate for a revenge operation although I would personally prefer to use the Gurkhas if there was to be any knife work.
Note: the Gurkhas draw the kukri with the left hand. It tends to distract opponents from what is in their right hand.

I hadn’t thought of that. Thanks for the added insight. Despite the media-manipulated mindset of many that the Brits are just a bunch of tea-drinking sissies, I for one would NOT want to infuriate one of them — much less a contingent of SAS. Or Gurkhas.
On a trip to England at age 22 to look up some of my father’s relatives, one of my drinking companions told me in the most earnest manner, “Do not piss off a Brit. Do not back him into a corner. If you do, RUN; it’s your only hope . . . and you’d better pray God they don’t catch you”.
That would likely spark thoughts of revenge in prince William and other members of the family. It certainly would for me.

How about it. I remember reading about a Gurkha who tore up a train full of robbers
