LABIS, Malaysia (APi—The sudden, harsh clash tween the British Gurkhas and the Indonesian paratroopers had lasted only a few minutes. here was no sound now in the jungle of the Malaysian state of Malaya. only the smell of gun- powder in the thick air.
The Gurkha captain could see one of the dead Indonesiansr sprawled less than 15 yards away. Another paratrooper was hiding nearby behind a log, but
the Gurkha couldn't get a bead on him. ' He waited, sweating. There
was no movement, no sound anywhere. The captain flipped a small stone to the left of the Indonesian.
The paratrooper inched his head above the log to see what had mov . In a split second he was dead, a bullet through his forehead.
Less than 10 days later the same captain was shot dead the first t campaign GAME IS DEADLY

Many
of the experienced Ghurka '
troops. including the British officers, know these jungles from the emergency years of 1948 - 60 when they cleared the land of Communists.
The Gurkhas have known bat- tle in different parts of the world, from Borneo to the Mid- dle East.
Their fighting now is in a war of jungle discomfort, where feet are almmt always wet and shirts streaked with blood from
c ever-present leeches.
There are many stories about the Gurkhas. A typical one oc- curred recently in Borneo also part of Malaysia.
ONE GOT AWAY
A Gurkha patrol of five sur- prised five Indonesians in a clearing. Five shots rang out, four Indonesians fell dead. The other scampered into the under-
cover. “Which one of you missed?” asked the British officer. The Gurkhas didn’t answer. r a moment of silence the officer ordered them to make a IO-hour forced march with full packs. He said: Do you know why you are being punished? It isn’t because you won’t talk.it's because you don’t know which one of you missed." But in this war, there are few misses by the Gurkhas.
