I am having difficulty locating this kanji. My guess is the radical is cliff "厂" with 7 strokes. However, my dictionary fails me. The closest I got is 后.

It's 兵 as in 兵士. Its radical is 八 (はち(がしら)) and apparently not 斤 (おの(づくり)) or 厂 (がんだれ). 7 strokes.

When you can't find it under one radical it's always best to check the others just to be sure!– ssbNov 29, 2013 at 0:35

Not all radicals are obvious, unfortunately. This one is particularly amusing, though, as かしら in 八頭【はちがしら】 literally means "head", and yet it's acting as feet here.– KajiApr 25, 2014 at 18:54
つわもの
orいくさ
, although I'm guessing these are a lot less frequent than justへい
.
