Ramparsad Gurung attested for the Brigade of Gurkhas on 1 November 1956 and was immediately posted to ‘G’ Signal Section which was based at the Western Gurkha Depot in Nepal. Twice posted to Malaya and once to India, he gained his 1st Class Certificate of Education on 15 June 1962 whilst stationed in Hong Kong. His exemplary testimonial adds:
‘Corporal Ramparsad Gurung has throughout his service of thirteen years been a hard working, conscientious man. As a detachment commander he has shown that he can control others and always set a good example to the other men of the detachment.’
