Armed with boots, jeans and long-sleeved shirts, we are ready for the day's assignment. We are joining KDF soldiers as they comb Archer's military training area in Samburu for unexploded ordnance (UXOs). These are explosives such as bombs, shells, missiles and grenades that fail to detonate on impact and pose a risk to locals. We land at the Kalama Airstrip, Samburu, at about 20 minutes to 9am. Firing at Archer's Post dates way back to the 1970s.
