Please help me find this movie

When I was a kid me, my brothers and my cousins watched the kung fu movie and loved it. We have not seen it since. The movie features a villiam called The Crane. He kills his opponent by striking there throat. As best to my recollection, the movie starts with a fighter who trains a bunch of misfits and cooks to fight. I think they were always picked on by others. Anyways they embark on this journey to find and kill the crane. The have all sorts of battles in between and lose men along the way. I think at the end on character remains after fighting the crane. I am not sure if he died later in a battle on his way home or not. If someone can help me find this movie I would be most appreciative.

If it's the movie I'm thinking of, it goes by many names. The two I remember are "Crane Fighter" and "Kung Fu Commandos".

It's sort of a dirty dozen riff in the kung fu genre.
