Sikhs are not only known for military service, they are known for being among the most fierce of fighters when push comes to shove. They carry much the same reputation for bravery in battle that the Scots do. In fact the Kirpan (dagger) is meant to remind them of their duty to protect the weak and struggle against injustice.
