On another thread about Sikhs a few months ago, I opined that we should recruit Sikhs from India for a Sikh battalion for the U.S. Army, similar to the Gurkha units in the British Army. These guys have a martial culture, and there is no love lost between them and Islamics.

You bet there's no love lost between the Sikhs and Islamics. That's why it's amusing that people get the two confused.

But a Sikh regiment in the US armed forces? I like the idea!

Wasn't Indhira Gandhi (sp) machine-gunned to death by her Sikh bodyguards some years back?
