This is a great man, i remember him in the day's when he used to captain scarlet F.C, He was very determined, he would always start the match as a striker, before switching to central defence in the second half.

Hi KDF, why dont you push for a mandatory military service for all those who finish form four,,. it will strengthen our unity and create a sense of patriotism like our bros in Tanzania (With NYS), south Korea and those countries that make it mandatory for their youth to enrol,, and i would also like us to push for our own serious military research to assist in our country being more self sufficient in matters defence.

Hello sir,I want to thank you for your sacrifice towards keeping Kenya safe.well as for me I have a question? what is their any difference between wo1 and sergeant major

[@emmanuelziro6617]

Sergent major is an office while wo1 is a rank and for you to be a Sergent major ( in charge discipline) then you shud be of the rank of warrant officer one sa it is in the police where only those of the rank of senior Sergent can be RSM (regimental Sergent major) hope I assisted.

[@muriskeyboard7662]

WO 1 is the highest and top most rank in the service members or uncomissioned officer whereas a sergeant major is an appointment given to the very qualified WO 1 so as to be the head of defence svc members...His assistant are the army airforce and naval sergeant majors. ?hope I have assisted too

[@Black_Chald]

@@muriskeyboard7662 yeah but a captain is the top most rank in the service members, because your cannot call a captain an officer...and thos with the rank starting from major and above
