A groundbreaking DNA and legal process has identified 20 British soldiers as fathers to children born near the British Army Training Unit in Kenya (Batuk) in Nanyuki. Paternity has been legally confirmed in 12 cases by the UK's highest Family Court judge.

• Nearly 100 cases of children born to British soldiers stationed at Batuk have been documented.
• Lead figures include UK solicitor James Netto and Kenyan lawyer Kelvin Kubai, who utilized commercial genealogy databases for DNA matching.
• The process offers answers and potential eligibility for British citizenship and child support to children who have faced hardship and a lack of heritage information.
