Solidity is a condition (or a character). The root of this word is ?solid? meaning as sturdy or been fully-loaded. The solidity of soldiers, therefore, describes a condition where soldiers have sturdiness and are fully-loaded with required capacities in military organization. For dealing with problems and heavy challenges in the future, therefore, solidity, cohesiveness and corp spirit of Indonesia National Army of Ground Force (TNI-AD) must be increased. Integrity is a key character of a certain soldier based on its rank level. Integrity is a first condition in choosing leader, and then followed by intelectual and managerial capabilities of TNI-AD. The objective of research is to analyze the effect of solidity and integrity on professionalism and the impact of professionalism on integrity leadership of TNI-AD; and also to investigate the model with the dominant effect of solidity and integrity on professionalism, and the impact of professionalism on integrity leadership of TNI-AD. The location of research is at Pusdik Arhanud addressed at Karangploso Road, Malang Regency. Time of research begins from 18 January 2017 to 21 March 2017, or lasting for 3 months. Type of research is quantitative with field survey. The sample of research includes 150 persons, and data analysis is using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with Software WarpPLS 5.0. Result of research explains that solidity and integrity have an effect of 71.2% on professionalism. Solidity is represented by feeling as having similar fate and profession. Moreover, the effect of professionalism on integrity leadership is rated for 81%. Normative integrity has the highest load, meaning that it has positive and significant effect. The form of integrity in this paper is soldiers? sense of authority. Integrity represented by soldiers? sense of authority has a positive effect on charismatic integrity leadership. The effect of professionalism would increase integrity leadership where the increase of their self-identity and their chance to develop among TNI-AD soldiers may go along with the increase of integrity leadership. It is suggested that activities supporting the solidity must be closely related to the integrity of leader because it is needed to avoid polemic that occurs in the information age. It may help to change soldiers? mindset that is previously unmanaged. This change covers attitude, mentality, and behavior of soldiers to produce new culture that may influence their conduct of duty. Soldiers? attitude toward leader may change the existing ethic and norm professed by TNI-AD soldiers.
