Kuhusu kuita Jeshi la Taifa kuwa na neno la Ulinzi/Defence ni sababu ya Kisiasa na doctrine ya nchi husika.
Majeshi yenye neno Defence yanamaanisha kuwa “A country will not seek to expand using military force and military will be for defensive purposes only”
Otherwise Kama nchi haitaweka neno Ulinzi/defence kwenye jeshi lake maana yake they are willing to use forces outside the border to achieve a national interests
