DEVELOPMENT OF 1 ST ENGINEER BATTALION OF MARINE CORPS PERSONNEL IN ORDER TO FOLLOW THE UNITED NATIONS MISSIONS PEACEKEEPING OPERATIONS

Abstract

Indonesia consistently sends TNI troops to the UN Peacekeeping Mission as a Garuda Contingent. The 1st Engineer Battalion of the Marine Corps needs to increase its unit's readiness to support the TNI's tasks in every world peacekeeping operation. Each unit personnel is expected to have readiness in following each assignment mission so that they are able to meet the specified requirements. However, unit personnel still did not pass the assignment selection at the recruitment stage. This study will analyze the formation of 1 st Engineer Battalion of Marine Corps personnel to follow the assignment, especially at the recruitment stage using qualitative methods. From the results of the study, it can be seen that the personnel training carried out by the unit is still unable to increase its personnel's readiness in following assignments optimally. Therefore we need an effort to foster personnel comprehensively.
