SORONG - The Indonesian Navy Command Fleet III recruited 250 easy-to-use soldiers to be assigned to eastern Indonesia, namely Papua, West Papua, Maluku and North Maluku.

There are 100 non-commissioned officers and 149 young enlisted soldiers of the 2022 recruitment program officially inaugurated at the Commander of the Fleet Command III Rear Admiral Irvansyah in Sorong, Wednesday, July 27.

The Commander of the Marine Education and Training Doctrine Development Command Commander Lt. Gen. TNI (Mar) Suhartono said the 250 soldiers had attended basic soldiering and basic education.

This education is able to improve the soldier's spirit as a non-commissioned officer and enlisted member of the Navy who is ready to desperately serve the community.

In addition, he said, this education can also make soldiers responsive and have a good mindset, attitude and action for two months.

He hoped that the soldiers would not be proud of themselves for having completed the basic education of the soldiering stage and the basic stage of the group to become a Navy soldier who holds the rank.

Suhartono reminded the soldiers to be disciplined and always obey the applicable regulations and the enthusiasm to follow all the subject matter given, so that later they really become strong Navy soldiers.

Soldiers who are proud of the community, nation and state and are ready to carry out assignments in the unit or in the area of operation.

At the end of his mandate, the Kodiklatal Commander expressed his gratitude to the Commander of the Satdiklatal-3 Kodiklatal and all staff, instructors, and student supervisors for all their efforts and hard work so that the basic soldiering and basic group education can proceed according to plan.
