It's their mountain, in their country, yet the world's most feared soldiers have never made it to the summit of Everest. In 2015, the Gurkhas, the British Army's brigade of elite soldiers, sought to celebrate 200 years' service by putting the first serving Gurkha on the summit of Everest. Their expedition was stopped by an earthquake and avalanche. In 2017, the Gurkhas return to Everest.
