By evening, the soldiers can barely walk. The body aches. The stomach rumbles and the throat is parched. The sun doesn&#8217;t play in these streets.<\/p>\n<p>So, one evening after a long, rumbling trek, the squad stumbles into camp. The first stop is the kitchen area. Basically, a few trenches with a lit fire &#8211; huge boiling cauldrons.<\/p>\n<p>Thankfully &#8211; there&#8217;s always a hot meal waiting.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2397\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2397\" style=\"width: 1080px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/sponsored\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/10\/FB_IMG_1634245845887.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2397\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/sponsored\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/10\/FB_IMG_1634245845887.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1080\" height=\"780\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/sponsored\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/10\/FB_IMG_1634245845887.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/sponsored\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/10\/FB_IMG_1634245845887-300x217.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/sponsored\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/10\/FB_IMG_1634245845887-1024x740.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/sponsored\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/10\/FB_IMG_1634245845887-768x555.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2397\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Former Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko hanging out with military personnel (file image)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>There&#8217;s a ton of Ugali. Lots of fried meat. It&#8217;s all laid out on tables, buffet-style. Just so you know, the military invented the buffet.<\/p>\n<p>The starving squad digs in.<\/p>\n<p>Then, each soldier crawls to their tent. If you haven&#8217;t been in a tent, it&#8217;s just an overpriced invite to spend a night in the open. No walls.<\/p>\n<p>They slump into bed, military fatigues, soiled boots and all. A few, naturally, forget the little matter of washing hands after the dinner meat session.<\/p>\n<p>Now, Athi River is home to loads of wildlife. In this story, marauding hyenas and wild dogs come into play.<\/p>\n<p>They like military camps &#8211; loads of left over food &#8211; especially meat. A military camp is deathly silent in the dead of night. This is the time the scavengers rule. Packs run the length of the camp, sniffing for discarded morsels of food.<\/p>\n<p>They have a keen sense of smell. They&#8217;ll even sniff meat-stained fingers.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s a first hand story, as told by a soldier whose fingers got gnawed off by a hyena in the plains of Athi River.<\/p>\n<p>I suppose every kid wants to be a soldier at some point. And almost every other teen. Its glamorous, and enviable. As it is, not everyone makes the cut. And not everyone deserves the cut.<\/p>\n<p>Because it&#8217;s a life of endless, thankless sacrifice.<\/p>\n<p>Spending nights in waterlogged trenches &#8211; swatting angry mosquitoes. Camping for months in remote wastelands &#8211; no cellphone coverage.<\/p>\n<p>Meeting and talking to the same people, every single day, for months on end. Eating the same meals, on clockwork.<\/p>\n<p>At some point, you realise that you know your comrade more than you know your own spouse.<\/p>\n<p>The constant travel for assignments and impromptu exercises have a toll on family life.<\/p>\n<p>A soldier hardly ever attends family functions.<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll get a new born &#8211; but you don&#8217;t get to know of it. You have pitched camp in some forsaken dumpland without a single bar of nework.<\/p>\n<p>Your favorite niece got married sometimes over Easter. When you finally get home on that short week off, you&#8217;ll be regaled with funny tales on how Uncle Njenga aced her dowry negotiations.<\/p>\n<p>She fetched a few camels, over and above a tidy sum of currency. He was clearly the GOAT.<\/p>\n<p>Except, the GOAT uncle had passed on a few weeks earlier. You didn&#8217;t hear of it. It hurts for a moment.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2402\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2402\" style=\"width: 654px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/sponsored\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/10\/WhatsApp-Image-2021-10-15-at-10.20.46.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2402 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/sponsored\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/10\/WhatsApp-Image-2021-10-15-at-10.20.46.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"654\" height=\"469\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/sponsored\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/10\/WhatsApp-Image-2021-10-15-at-10.20.46.jpeg 654w, https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/sponsored\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/10\/WhatsApp-Image-2021-10-15-at-10.20.46-300x215.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 654px) 100vw, 654px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2402\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The KDF band in a practise session (file image)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>It&#8217;s not all doom and gloom, though.
