Me and Museum Collection, Tandu Sudirman

For the third task of the museum's collection, I chose to go to a museum that is closest to my route home on Jl. Gatot Subroto, the Museum Satria Mandala which is a museum of military history. The museum is also called the Museum of Armed Forces. Here they keep the tools used by the military of earlier times, ranging from weapons, ground vehicles, air vehicles plus up to several dioramas and relics that play a role in a military hero.

Entering the inside of the museum, I was greeted with an atmosphere that is not-as simple as that-I-imagined. Through one hall contains dioramas diorama-independence era, I came into a room where there are many relics that used our heroes, such as General Nasution, Suharto, and one which I will discuss the General Sudirman, which is located in one corner of the room. It can be seen on the corner of a table and four chairs in the middle. On the walls are plastered large painting of General Sudirman, and the section on the right was a window where there was displayed in the window of General Sudirman clothes on display next to General Sudirman warfare equipment, badges, badge, death certificate, even phone uses. If coming from the direction, the object is blocked by a wall so we can not directly see it. Behind this wall, he uses a litter dipajanglah selamam lead when Dutch Military Aggression War II. This thing that I will discuss to complete the task 3 my history this time.Overview of the Great Commander General Sudirman: Sudirman start a military career since the Japanese occupation in 1943 as an officer Map (Defenders of the Homeland); became Commander of the Regiment Navan after independence. Appointed Chief of Division V Navan, Sudirman and concurrently became the Navy high command.
Subsequently, he served as Commander of TKR, TRI Grand Commander, Grand Commander of the Armed Forces, Commander of the Armed Forces Automobiles, and Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Indonesia States. General Sudirman was educated HIS Student Park, Mulo Wiworo Tomo, HIK Muhammadiyah, and has taught at his Cilacap Muhammadiyah, 1942.
In 1936, Sudirman was married to Siti Alifah and had nine children. Born January 24, 1916, Sudirman died January 29, 1950 due to lung disease in 1950 and was buried at Heroes Park Semaki, Yogyakarta. Despite having died, his spirit as a great commander is not dead. During the guerrilla, Mr. TNI was also sowing seeds of military unity and independence of the people to remain stable.In my occupation, Sudirman very concerned about social issues. He set up cooperatives to help the people from starving. He is also a member of the Governing Body of the People's Food and a member of the House of Representatives Residency Banyumas.At the same time pursuing army Sudirman Defenders of the Homeland (Map) in Bogor. Later he was appointed Commander of the Battalion in Kroja. Sudirman first service after independence is the Japanese troops seize weapons in Banyumas.After the People's Security Army (TKR) is formed, he was appointed Commander of Division V / Banyumas with the rank of colonel. In December 1945 he led troops in battle against the British TKR in Ambarawa. December 12, launched simultaneous attacks against all the British position. British forces eventually retreated to Semarang.In TKR Conference on 12 November 1945 Sudirman was elected Commander of TKR. Then on December 18, 1945 he was appointed by the President with the rank of General. Since then TKR grow into the Indonesian National Army (TNI).
Stretcher Sudirman History: When the Dutch launched a military aggression II, General Sudirman was ill, but he rejected the suggestion the president to remain in the city. Approximately seven months he mempimpim guerrilla warfare in the forests and mountains. Many of the suffering they experienced frequent relapses and disease, especially the unavailability of drugs.According to the testimony of someone Purwosari, South Mountain, the soldiers called up some people / young people in border villages to help carry stretchers Great Commander General Sudirman.At that time, Sudirman led a guerrilla war in a state hospital with only one functioning lung. Almost all along the 1009 kilometer journey was a guerrilla, Sudirman crutches and occasionally human-drawn carriage ride. Not only that involved grassroots stretcher carrying the highest levels of People's Security Army (TKR), the Sudirman subordinates, Captain Clark and Suparjo Pranoto Rustam, join interesting gig. Suwondo, his personal physician, helped push the gig.Guerrilla struggle took place after the capital city of Yogyakarta invaded the Netherlands, 19 December 1948-10 July 1949. Guerrilla route signs were still evident with the installation of the boards of General Sudirman inscribed Route Guerrilla attached to remote rural areas.Through the forest and hilly regions, Sudirman mental mess Dutch troops with guerrilla warfare tactics. "At that time, the Dutch claimed Indonesia no longer existed. Army guerrillas are considered extremists and gangs," said Head of Section Guidance and Exhibition Center Museum Wiratama Dharma Army Maj. Rico Sahani, Friday (13 / 8).Departing from the home office in Bintaran, December 19, 1948, brought a company of troops Sudirman towards Parangtritis. The group entered through the South Mountain District Purwosari, Bake, until Playen.In Wonosari, the guerrilla group was greeted with a parachute landing of Dutch troops. The group walked to Wonogiri (Central Java), Pacitan, and Ponorogo (East Java) through Semanu. Sudirman had time to build the headquarters for three months in Nawangan, Pacitan. Consolidation was held to retake the capital city of Yogyakarta from the Dutch.Of guerrilla territory, Sudirman consolidate common attack March 1, 1949 captured Yogyakarta. Attacks commonly emitted by radio secret Air Force Republic of Indonesia in Banaran, Playen, South Mountain.Air Force radio station equipment placed on the family farm house kitchen Pawirosetomo. The power plant hidden in the ground and covered with wood stove fuel. Antennae stretched on two coconut trees.Radio broadcasts were arrested All India Radio and transmitted to the world until the United Nations (UN) to know Indonesia is still there. Netherlands urges the United Nations held a round-table talks. Through negotiations, the Dutch recognized the sovereignty of Indonesia.After seven months of guerrilla, Sudirman and his entourage returned to Yogyakarta on July 10, 1949. Since then, because it still hurts, he can not lead the Armed Forces directly, but the fruit of his thinking is always required by the Government. At that time, rural people willing to help the fight by making a general kitchen and ensure the availability of food for soldiers.A resident named Giyono Parangtritis claimed to have witnessed the Sudirman stretcher. "If he was passing by, people would greet him with the outdoors. There are some people who are willing to give their food to the troops Sudirman," he said.For him, Sudirman was a formidable figure, do not know surrender, and not whiny. Giyono still remember when ditandu Sudirman conditions. "Frequent coughing. He was skinny," he said.For me personally, the figure of a Great Commander General Sudirman is also one of the greatest figures ever possessed by Indonesia. In my opinion, he is the figure of a man who has high charisma and has the ability to think is so great that even able to make Indonesia won without he himself should come down to attack into battle. The idea seems great that people need in today's Indonesia.Joy and sadness: I originally got into trouble while visiting the day Friday, May 20, 2011. At that time my mother told me that the museum closes at four-thirty, so I just leave at three in order to more leisurely look around the whole museum. At the time I get off at the wrong terminal, I would have to walk about 100 meters into the rain, while only a dress shirt to cover my head to get to this museum. And stupidly I realized that in my bag there umbrellas, pshaw. When I arrived at 4 less than 15, the museum was already closed. Blame the internet that give false info. At that time, I think so not in vain, I finally got to the backyard which is also present from the collections of some of the vehicles used during the war.Initially I was about to take a plane called B-25J Mitchell for material for this historical task, but I do not find a concrete history of these objects with a history of Indonesia to make an assignment to-3 history of this. Therefore, the next day I was escorted by my parents to visit this museum again to look for other materials for review. We see the whole museum and home to take pictures of each collection as a precaution but I finally chose a stretcher sudirman to be discussed because history itself is not too long nor too short.For the whole museum is quite nice and the collection can be fairly complete. However, the actual arrangement of several collections here are still less attractive to look at and again there are several dioramas are damaged but not repaired. If treated better, in my opinion, perhaps the museum will attract more 

customers.
