  • From King's African Rifles to Kenya Rifles
    From King’s African Rifles to Kenya Rifles: The Decolonization and Transition of an African Army, 1960-1970 Christian A. Harrison Department of History Honors Thesis University of Colorado at Boulder Defended April 5, 2016 Thesis Advisor: Dr. Myles Osborne, Department of History Defense Committee: Dr. Mithi Mukherjee, Department of History Dr. Mara Goldman, Department of Geography 1 Introduction: At midnight on the 12th of December 1963, the Union Jack was lowered for the last time at a moving ceremony at Independence Arena in Nairobi, Kenya. Immediately after, to the sound of cheering and jubilation, a green banner emblazoned with spears and shield was raised: the national independent flag of Kenya. For the first time in nearly seventy years, political power, in what had been known as the Kenya Colony, belonged to indigenous African people. In conjunction with the flag raising ceremony, two separated and differently uniformed detachments of African soldiers paraded in front of the packed stadium. One group wore the red fezzes and short sleeveless zouve jackets of the King’s African Rifles. The other, the dark green peaked hats and tunic uniforms of the newly formed Kenya Rifles.1 But this was only for show. Legally, there was no difference between the two groups. With Kenya’s independence; the 3rd, 5th, and 11th Battalions of the King’s African Rifles were handed over to the Government of Kenya and became the 3rd, 5th, and 11th Battalions of the Kenya Rifles. In the ceremony a contingent of Kenya Rifles, dressed in the old uniforms of the KAR, symbolically handed over the regimental standards and emblems to their differently uniformed comrades.2 In what was a confusing time for the rank and file (and also many of the officers), this was meant to confirm for the soldiers, civilians, and government officials of Kenya that the allegiance of the army had indeed now changed, but that its pride, competence, and esteem had not.

  • The Soldier and the Street: East African CIMIC in Somalia and Beyond
    The Soldier and the Street: East African CIMIC in Somalia and Beyond BY MARIE BESANÇON AND STEPHEN DALZELL1 he African Union Mission in Somalia (AMISOM) is a watershed in African security – a truly multinational, all African, peace support operation.2 While there will be many stra- T tegic, operational, and tactical lessons to be drawn from this experience, one that is already yielding changes within African military forces is the awareness of the need for effective civil- military operations (CMO) to complement other components of the campaign. Not only are the AMISOM leaders and units adapting on the ground, the troop-contributing countries (TCC) are implementing changes in their organizations and training programs at home. For the “tactician” in global security, this poses interesting questions regarding the operational role of CMO and its impact on regional security; strategically, it is important to evaluate how this increased awareness of CMO is driving changes in East African armed forces and the implications for civil-military relations in all the countries involved. The AMISOM Experience with CMO A 2012 Africa Union Commission Report estimates that it will be 2020 before Somalia is stable enough for AMISOM troops to entirely withdraw.3 Between now and then, the daunting task for the Somalis is to solidify professional military and police institutions to secure the internal and external safety of the population. In the meantime, how long will it be before the local population begins to view the AMISOM forces as an occupying army, if they don’t already?4 What can the TCCs and the soldiers on the ground do to promote positive relations with the Somali people, government, and civil society? What should the role of the American military be in this endeavor? As the AMISOM troops slowly encroach upon the Islamic insurgents’ (al-Shabaab) territory militarily, what can appease the local population while the Somali government stabilizes and embeds its brand of African/Muslim consensual democracy politically?5 Western military doctrine Dr.
