The US Army has been training for several years at the Counter-Insurgency and Jungle Warfare School in India. It’s considered the best Jungle school currently in operation anywhere in the world.

It's likely the best one at this time that takes foreign military students, now that the Royal Malayan tracker's school is under new management, as is Malaya/Malasia itself. The Australian SAS ran one that was awfully comprehensive and intense, and the Negritos at Clark AFB in the Phillipines ran one for the Air Force P-jocks and Combat Controllers that was likely the best for that part of the world at that time.

The Gurkhas who rotate through the British *advisory* group in Belize [formerly *British Honduras*] patrol in disputed areas sometimes patrolled from the other side by Guatemalan Kaibiles, giving their combat patrolling and immediate action training a certain emphasis.

The Gurkhas who rotate through the British *advisory* group in Belize [formerly *British Honduras*] patrol in disputed areas sometimes also patrolled [and claimed as Guat territory] from the other side by Guatemalan Kaibiles, giving their combat patrolling and immediate action training a certain realistic emphasis.
