Kodam V/Brawijaya

Kodam V/Brawijaya (V Military Regional Command/Brawijaya) (Komando Dhaérah Militer V/Brawijaya) is a military region command of the Indonesian Army, as the 5th (Roman numeral "V") Kodam, which oversees the entire East Java Province. It traces its history to the first formation of the East Java Division in 1948.

History
Based on the Minister of Defence of the Republic of Indonesia decision numbered A/532/48, on 25 October 1948, three Infantry Divisions responsible for the province of East Java, which are 5th Division / Ronggolawe, 6th Division / Narotama and 7th Division / Suropati, were merged into the Indonesian Army East Java Division. The division's raising ceremony in the Kuwak field, Kediri, was presided by then Colonel Abdul Haris Nasution.
 * Establishment of Indonesian Army East Java Division

On 17 December 1951, coinciding with the 3rd anniversary of East Java Division, 1st Division / Brawijaya is founded, as replacement of East Java Division. Brawijaya is a dynasty of the Majapahit Kingdom, that has been successfully integrated into the archipelago and made Majapahit into a powerful kingdom. The prefix "Bra-" or "Bhre-" in the name "Brawijaya" means "Great" and is a title of honour given to a young prince named Wijaya, a founder of the Majapahit Kingdom.
 * Establishment of 1st Division / Brawijaya

As a result of Decision of the Chief of Staff of the Army numbered 2/KS/Instr/52, dated 5 January 1952, 1st Division / Brawijaya was changed into 5th Territorial Army / Brawijaya (TT V/Brawijaya), based on the division of the Indonesian military territory into 7 Territorial Army.
 * 1st Division / Brawijaya become 5th Territorial Army / Brawijaya

Based on Army Chief of Staff decision numbered Kpts/952/10/1959, the 5th Territorial Army / Brawijaya was changed into Kodam VIII / Brawijaya based on the change in division of the Indonesian Military territory, from 7 Territorial Armies to 17 Military Regions.
 * 5th Territorial Army / Brawijaya become Kodam VIII / Brawijaya

Based on Army Chief of Staff decision numbered Kep/4/1985, dated 12 January 1985, Kodam VIII / Brawijaya was changed into Kodam V / Brawijaya, the name it has carried till the present. This change is due to a massive reorganisation of the Indonesian Army, on the principles of "A Small Effective Unit" policies of then Commander of the Armed Forces Leonardus Benjamin Moerdani, which led to the formation of 10 military regions on the basis of the 17 then active at that time.
 * Kodam VIII / Brawijaya become Kodam V / Brawijaya
