struggle of the Medan people was moved to Pematangsiantar. Then, a meeting was
held between the commanders of the troops fighting in the Medan Area. The result was
to form a command called the People's Troops Regiment Command to strengthen
resistance in the city of Medan. So in August 1946, the Medan Area People's Troops
Regiment Command was successfully formed. This command continued to attack the
Allies in the Medan area. Until finally, the rebellion against the Allies in Medan continued
until the end of Dutch rule in Indonesia in 1949.

In the process of subsequent history, the People's Army Command then changed to
BKR (People's Security Agency) which is the government's official military, where
Djamin Ginting was appointed as the Commander of the Teras Troops together with
Nelang Sembiring and Bomb Ginting and other members such as: Selamat Ginting,
Nahud Bangun , Rimrim Ginting, Ancient Captain, Looks Seshadow and others.
In general, the members of BKR were former members of Gyugun or Heiho and other
groups formed by Japan. Djamin Ginting is a former Gyugun platoon commander who
was appointed as the Battalion Commander of the BKR Tanah Karo. To continue the
struggle in Medan, in August 1946 the Medan Area People's Army Regiment Command
was formed. The command of this regiment continued to carry out attacks on the Allies
in the Medan area. In almost all parts of Sumatra there was popular resistance against
the Japanese, the Allies and the Dutch. The battle took place in several areas of
Berastagi, Padang and Bukit Tinggi.
