For the Kent County Militia of Delaware, see List of United States militia units in the American Revolutionary War § Delaware.
The Kent Militia was an auxiliary[a] military force in Kent in the South East England. From their formal organisation as Trained Bands in 1558 until their final service as the Special Reserve, the Militia regiments of the county served in home defence in all of Britain's major wars. They also saw active service during the Second Boer War, and trained thousands of reinforcements during World War I. After a shadowy postwar existence they were formally disbanded in 1953.
