Abstract:
AbstractScholarly and popular histories of Kenya largely agree that African Second World War veterans played a central role in the Kenya Land Freedom Army. Former African members of the colonial security forces have reinforced these assumptions by claiming to have been covert Mau Mau supporters, either after their discharge, or as serving soldiers. In reality, few Mau Mau generals had actual combat experience. Those who served in the colonial military usually did so in labor units or support arms. It therefore warrants asking why so many Kenyans accept that combat veterans played such a centra

Abstract:
The weakening of British rule and the eventual emancipation of Kenya from colonial control brought the promise of a free nation able to validate its indigeneity through art, culture, and music. However, the Kenyan army band martial music has not fully realised this potential. Sixty years after independence, the Kenya army band plays British-style music and has slowly adapted to indigenous music. This paper is part of a continuing study at Langata Garrison in Nairobi, the home of the Kenya Army Band. The study employed a qualitative approach and a case study research design to analyse selected

Military diplomacy incorporates measures adopted by a country to enhance its defence and security capabilities. States engage in military diplomacy to share intelligence, equipment, and resources necessary to safeguard their interests. This study examined trends of Kenya-Britain military diplomacy under four regimes. The focus was on the critical areas of military diplomacy, cooperation and assistance between Kenya and Britain, trends of trade in military equipment and the factors that have influenced military diplomacy and trade in military hardware and software between Kenya and Britain from

Abstract Although Kenya’s Defence Forces (KDF) have undergone far-reaching changes since the days of the King’s African Rifles, military professionalism still seems to be permeated by the British colonial rule in the former East African protectorate. This had a decisive impact on the KDF, and it completely dominated the Kenyan national defence and security policies for many years. However, Kenya can also be credited with some of the most spectacular operations in East Africa until this date. The most significant example is the unique operation ‘Linda Nchi’ that occurred during 2011, which sent

Abstract The two world wars necessitated the introduction of conscription, previously only applied for a limited period to the militia and occasionally for an even more limited period to the regular army in the early eighteenth century.

At the same time the army had to come to terms with the transformational nature of mass modern warfare. Contrasting Continental and imperial/colonial roles also came i
