84 were attached to the Kenya Army, 30 to the Kenya Air Force and 17 to the Kenyan Navy. Seven others were allied officers from Uganda, Tanzania, Burundi and Rwanda and will be deployed in their respective countries.

Thirteen others obtained the rank of second lieutenant after being trained with the Tanzanian and British armies.

This is the fifth group of cadet officers to obtain a bachelor's degree in military science from the academy, offered jointly with Kenyatta University for a period of three years, in addition to the normal military training and character development.

Diplomas in Military Science will be awarded to graduates in December of this year at Kenyatta University.
