The Kenya Defence Forces (KDF) is the security organ charged with defending the nation's borders, whether by land, sea, or air.
Often referred to as the 'disciplined forces', the KDF is known for its structure and organisation, which stems from well-defined military ranks.
Military ranks, aside from providing structure within the KDF, also establish a system of leadership in the Kenyan military and indicate a soldier's level of expertise and authority.
You might have heard of the titles General, Major General, Colonel, Lieutenant General, and even Commander.
