Susbintal – Kursus Pembinaan Mental
Maret 16, 2009Ingatkah anda kapan terakhir kali anda menyanyikan lagu Indonesia Raya dengan semangat 45? atau pernahkah anda menangis saat menyanyikan lagu Bagimu Negeri?
Hal tersebut aku rasakan saat mengikuti susbintal selama sebulan kemarin. Patriotisme yang meluap-luap, semangat berapi-api saat menyanyikan lagu Indonesia Raya dan Bagimu Negeri. Mata ini pun berkaca-kaca.
Itu hanyalah satu dari sekian hal yang kami – para peserta – dapat dari mengikuti susbintal tersebut. Masih teringat saat orientasi, bagaimana kami disuruh tiarap dan berguling-guling di lapangan becek berlumpur yang di sana-sini banyak uretnya (*larva kumbang). Disambung makan di tempat itu juga, beralaskan lumpur, ditambah kuah dari air hujan, tentunya dibumbui sedikit lumpur. Lalu berjalan berkilo-kilo jauhnya sampai kaki kami lecet karena baru pertama kali memakai sepatu lars yang masih baru, mandi di sungai, hingga semua menderita bercak2 gatal di sekujur lengannya. Kami pun harus disuntik pantat.
Di sanalah kami mendapat kesempatan membawa senjata. Gerent (semoga benar penulisannya) dan M16-A1. Tidak hanya membawa, kami juga diajari cara membongkar-pasang dan menembak M16-A1. Luar biasa!!! 21 butir peluru masih terasa kurang.
Kegiatan fisik sudah menjadi makanan sehari-hari. Kami selalu bangun pukul 4 pagi dan senam pukul 4.30. Masih ada pembinaan fisik di siang hari, dan materi fisik di sore hari. Mulai lari, jalan jongkok, push-up, sit-up, kayang, speed mars (jalan cepat bersenjata), lintas medan, hingga senam senjata dan senam balok kami lakukan. Kami juga mendapat kesempatan untuk melakukan dasar2 mountaineering. Tiap hari kami juga selalu diteriaki tentang kerapian barak, penempatan barang, dan cara pelipatan baju. Hati ini sampai dongkol, kenapa melipat celana dalam aja sampai diatur?? Tiap hari kami selalu bergantian tugas menjadi ketua kelas, piket kelas, piket siswa, jaga kamar dan jaga serambi. Yang terakhir inilah yang membuat tidur kami terputus di tengah jalan karena harus bangun untuk melakukan tugas jaga.
Tentunya tidak hanya kegiatan lapangan saja yang kami lakukan. Banyak sesi kelas, seperti halnya kuliah, yang juga akan diambil nilai dengan ujian. Lulus tidaknya kami bergantung pada nilai ujian itu. Padahal, dengan serangkaian kegiatan yang begitu padat, kami tidak sanggup menolak datangnya rasa kantuk yang luar biasa di sesi-sesi kelas tersebut.
Setiap kegiatan, peristiwa, kejadian yang kami lalui hanya untuk 3 kata: kepemimpinan, kedisiplinan, dan loyalitas.
36 siswa masuk, 36 siswa lulus. 36 orang berjiwa pupuk bawang, berubah menjadi macan. Pendidikan sudah usai, hasilnya kini dipertaruhkan.

Salut, Ndu!!!
Aku aja nyerah gak ikut ospek fakultas karena males banget denger teriakan2 yang menyuruh hal2 gak penting. Hehehe…guess mental gak mau disuruh orang lebih berkuasa di sini, akibatnya jadi gak betahan kalo kerja.
Tapi guess what, udah kutebus selama masa karierku sampai saat ini, ibaratnya, lulus duluan, ospek belakangan :))
Salut2….pingin juga aku dilatih pegang senjata 😀
ak jg gak ngerti kok bisa2ny ikut ky gini…
Yang bener garand
Riue, Caliber .30, Ml (the Garand)
One of the main distinctions of the
Rifle, Caliber .30, Ml, almost universally
known as the Garand, is that it was
the first self-loading rifle to be
accepted for military service. That
acceptance happened during 1932,
but there followed a distinct gap before
the rifle entered service as it took
some time to tool up for the complex
production processes demanded by
the design. The rifle was created by
John C. Garand, who spent a great deal
of time developing the design to the
point that once in production it required
very few alterations. Thus the
last Ml looked very much like the first.
As already mentioned, the Ml was a
complicated and expensive weapon to
manufacture, and required a large
number of machining operations on
many of the components. But it was a
strong design and proved to be sturdy
in action, although this was balanced in
part by the weapon being rather
heavier than comparable bolt-action
designs. The Ml was a gas-operated
weapon.
When the USA entered World War
II at the end of 1941, most of her regular
forces were equipped with the Ml, but
the rapid increase of numbers of men
in uniform meant that the old M1903
Springfield rifle had to be placed back
into production as a quick increase in
the flow of Mis from the lines was virtually
impossible, as a result largely of
the tooling problems already mentioned.
But gradually Ml production
built up, and some 5,500,000 had been
churned out by the end of the war;
production was resumed during the
Korean War of the early 1950s.
For the American forces the Ml
Garand was a war-winner, whose
strong construction earned the gratitude
of many. But it did have one operational
fault, namely its ammunition
feed. Ammunition was fed into the rifle
in eight-round clips, and the loading
system was so arranged that it was
possible to load only the full eight
rounds or nothing, There was a further
operational problem encountered
when the last of the eight rounds was
fired, for the empty clip was ejected
from the receiver with a definite and
pronounced sound that advertized to
any nearby enemy that the firer’s rifle
was empty, sometimes with unfortunate
results to the Ml user. This problem
was not eliminated from the Ml
until 1957, when the US Army introduced
the M14 rifle which was virtually
a reworked Ml Garand with an increased
ammunition capacity.
Many sub-variants of the Ml were
produced but few actually saw service
The Carand was the first self-loading
rifle accepted as a standard military
weapon. Strong and sturdy, thegasoperatedMl
was rather heavier than
the bolt action Ml 903 Springfield.
as the basic Ml proved to be more
than adequate for most purposes.
There were two special sniper versions,
the MIC and the MID, both produced
during 1944 but never in any
great numbers, Each had such extras
as a muzzle flash cone and butt plates.
The Ml attracted the attention of the
223
USA’s enemies to the extent that the
Germans used as many as they could
capture, with the designation Selbstladegewehr
251(a), and the Japanese
produced their own copy, the 7.7-mm
(0.303-in) Rifle Type 5, but only prototypes
had been completed by the
time the war ended.
Post-war the Ml went on for many
years as the standard US service rifle,
and some are still issued to National
Guard and other such units, Several
nations continue to use the Ml, and
many designers have used the basic
action as the basis for their own products:
many of the modern Italian Beretta
rifles use the Garand system as
does the American 5.56-mm (0.22-in)
Ruger Mini-14.
