Only the Gurkha regiment have remained intact. And yet everyone should know that England's best soldiers were those from Kent.
Over many centuries, the Kentish soldiers held a place of honour in the front line of the English Army on the battlefield.
It dates back to a battle in Essex, when the Danes ambushed the Kentish units who were in the rear of the Army returning from a victory
By the time the rest of the English Army got to the scene in response to the Kentish trumpet calls, almost the entire Danish force was wiped out.
And now: people praise the Nepalese
