"content": "The other bit is to look at the education, training and skills development of soldiers. Just like I alluded to, I will give a scenario. You completed Form Four at the age of 18 when one qualifies to be registered and to get an identity card. At the age of 18, you have got an A- (minus) or A (plain). You say you want to serve in the KDF and you are taken as a cadet. You are trained for about a year and after that you become an active member. Within two or five years, you are expected to move to the next rank. If you do not make it as far as their procedures are concerned, you are retired. Here you are. First of all, you have sacrificed your profession. After Form Four, you opted to serve and protect the people of Kenya by joining the KDF but because of institutional mechanisms, you are not able to progress professionally within that entity. You are then retired. Nobody has your records. What do you do?"
