The Kuwait Army's cavalry and infantry were part of the combat forces in desert and metropolitan areas in 1919, 1920 and 1928 to 1938 while tracing their roots directly to the cavalrymen and infantrymen that defended Al-Kout Fortress since the 19th century along with the various mounted defensive walls. The "Kuwait Army" eventually enacted the Kuwait Land Force which became the prinicpal land force of the Kuwait Armed Forces and is the oldest armed branch among the Military of Kuwait.
The Kuwait Army was created in 1949 by Field Marshal Sheikh Abdullah Mubarak Al-Sabah (1949–1961) during the time when its partnership was included part of the Directorate of Public Security Force in 1938 prior to splitting in 1953. As Sheikh Abdullah Mubarak Al-Sabah headed the Directorate of Public Security Force which included the Kuwait Army; the later, was headed by deputy commander Colonel Mubarak Abdullah Al-Jaber Al-Sabah.
