Intan Jaya, IDNtribune.com – A variety of ways done by the Tri Dharma personnel in efforts to further strengthen the unity of the army and the local people of the area. This time, personnel of the 330/Tri Dharma Raider Infantery Batalyon Task Force provided free haircuts to residents at the Koteka Barbershop Holomama Post, Sugapa District, Intan Jaya Regency, on Sunday (16/07/23).

Residents who were enthusiastic about the free haircut waited their turn while queing. It can be seen that the Tri Dharma Knights patiently and kindly served residents who wanted to get their hair done.

Mission commander, Major Dedy Pungky, said in his official statement that the free haircut service at an altitude of 2200 meters above sea level (masl) was originally intended for children who will start school next week. “To be honest, I didn’t expect that the interest of people getting haircuts would explode. The initial plan was only for children, so that their hair would be neat when they start going to school,” he joked, smiling.

Private Indra Gunawan and Private Zulfikar did not see the slightest bit of tiredness, who from the beginning took turns cutting the hair of the residents who came. “Thankfully, it turns out that many residents match the results of the hair I cut,” said Uncle barber, the new nickname given by the residents for soldiers who cut their hair.

William Sani, one of the young men who had his hair cut, expressed his gratitude, “Respect, they gave me neat hair. Then they said I was as handsome as a Hollywood actor, Amakaniee,” he said, laughing. ***
