LDKS EXPERIENCE

MY EXPERIENCE AT THE STUDENT BASIC LEADERSHIP TRAINING

On Thursday, 21st of September, every student on the tenth class of SMAN 3 Bandung came to PUSENIF (Central Infantry Weaponry) to join the LDKS (Student Basic Leadership Training). We arrived in the morning at the training field on 7 am. After putting our luggage away, we lined up in the field on the opening ceremony. Then, we entered a building to watched movies and presentations about the army, nationalism, propagandas, fighting for the country, and leadership. We went to the barracks and I got my hair cut. We ate our dinner and watched the presentations again. After that, we slept only to be woken up again two hours later. We slept again to be woken up four hours later, and then we did a lot of exercise. We learned about marching in the fields. We went to the Friday Praying, where we almost unanimously slept in the middle of the teachings due to the unprecedented exhaustion. After a lot of activities, we went to the Cikutra Heroes' Cemetry to do the night activities. We toured the cemetry and arrived back to the barracks at 1 am. In the final day we do outbond activities, and then watch the movie " G30S/PKI ". We attended the closing ceremony and went home.
