Skripsi ini membahas pendidikan perwira Angkatan Darat pada tahun 1945? 1950 melalui Akademi Militer yang bertempat di Yogyakarta. Situasi dan kondisi Indonesia yang belum stabil karena baru merdeka menyebabkan pendidikan di Akademi Militer Yogya tidak dapat berjalan seperti pada umumnya. Adanya upaya Belanda kembali menguasai Indonesia melalui Agresi Militer Belanda I dan II mengharuskan para tarunanya untuk ikut bertempur mempertahankan kemerdekaan. Perbedaan latar belakang beberapa golongan di tubuh tentara Indonesia masa itu juga mempengaruhi pendidikan di Akademi Militer. Keadaan yang demikian menjadikan taruna Akademi Militer Yogya menjadi taruna pejuang yang lebih dulu berjuang sebelum menjadi perwira. Skripsi ini menggunakan metode penelitian sejarah dan menggunakan kaidah penulisan ilmiah.
