JAKARTA - Army Chief of Staff (KSAD) General Dudung Abdurachman received three Brevets from the Red Beret Corps attached to the Danjen Kopassus, Major General Teguh Muji Angkasa.

The embedding was done through a military ceremony that took place at the Mako Field of the Special Forces Command (Kopassus) Cijantung, East Jakarta, Tuesday, December 21.

In addition to being attached with three brevets, namely the Command Brevet, Anti-terror Brevet, Main Brevet from Kopassus, General Dudung also wore a red beret and a commando knife by the Danjen Kopassus.

It's not easy to get these three bravets. The former Pangkostrad had to carry out a series of exercises, including building attack drills, sniper shooting from the top of the Satgultor 81 building, training in carrying out room attacks on planes, training in overcoming the dangers of snakes, knife throwing exercises and unit 81 commando attack drills which lasted about an hour. .

Uniquely, before being attached to General Dudung, the Kopassus brevet and beret were carried by one of the Kopassus parachutists who free fall from a height of 4,000 feet using a helicopter named Serda Kowad Safira. A loud bang also colored the ceremony of attaching the Kopassus brevet and beret.

General Dudung said that receiving the Kopassus brevet and beret was an honor for him as Army Chief of Staff.

"Of course, I have already passed several exercises carried out by Commando soldiers including the Anti-Terror Kopassus soldiers. I have partially passed this and indeed the training is very tough. This shows that being a Kopassus soldier is not easy," said Dudung, as quoted by Antara.

Dudung also thanked the Danjen Kopassus Major General TNI Teguh Muji Angkasa for this award.

"I express my sincere gratitude and high appreciation to the Danjen Kopassus and all members and the big family of the red beret corps. I will use this as motivation to carry out the duties and responsibilities of properly coaching Kopassus and the Army," said Dudung.

This four-star general added an honor and pride to him because not all soldiers received a brevet with this special qualification.

"Once again I thank you for accepting me as an honorary citizen of the Red Beret Corps. Let's together build this Red Beret Corps so that in the future its work will be better and prouder," he said.
