INTRODUCTION
Based on data from the Committee for Handling Covid-19 and National Economic Recovery, on March 2, 2020, for the first time, a positive case of  was detected and announced in Indonesia. Since then, positive cases of Covid-19 have continued to grow and develop, on January 8, 2021, there were 808,340 positive cases of Covid-19 in Indonesia, where around 666,883 people were declared cured, and 23,753 died. Based on this explanation, Covid-19 can be said to be a non-natural disaster that is detrimental to people's lives, both eliminating the livelihoods of the affected community, disrupting the distribution and availability of community logistics, psychologically disturbing the condition of the community, even eliminating human lives (Samudro, 2020). In this regard, the government has also designated Covid-19 as a non-natural national disaster. Based on the national security of the Republic of Indonesia, it stated that the provisions of Law Number 24 of 2007 concerning National Disasters (Huljannah et al, 2020).
The conception of state resilience itself is an arrangement and implementation of welfare and security in a balanced, harmonious, and harmonious manner in all aspects of the life of the Indonesian nation to maintain Indonesia's national resilience. It is necessary to defend the state by citizens, following the Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia Article 27 paragraph (3)  voluntary or obligatory, as well as their dedication in carrying out their profession (Widiyant, et al. (2019: 136). However, the current form of state defense is less shown by millennials because generally they prefer and are interested in the culture that comes.
According to Samuel and Priyanto (2019: 162-175), the embodiment of the example of the millennial generation is influenced by technological developments that make it easier for them to access information so that their lifestyles tend to follow what they see. This is done to foster awareness of defending the country because the millennial generation uses learning methods related to their citizens with the use of technology (Suabuana et al, 2018: 39-41). The use of this technology can lead to several efforts to defend the state, as expressed by Pratiwi et al (2019: 70-75). According to him, the use of gadgets and the Internet by the millennial generation has the potential to combat threats arising from this technology ut. Thus, if information technology is used wisely and innovatively related to the integration of the Indonesian nation, millennials can imitate what they see every day on the internet and social media. Furthermore, millennials can also take advantage of technological developments for efforts to defend the country through IT-based business development and the use of social media to socialize social content that exhales Indonesia's potential and culture, especially during the Covid-19 pandemic. The act of developing an IT-based business during a pandemic and the use of social media for national content and socializing content regarding the importance of protocol can be said to be an effort to defend the country because these two actions are a manifestation of the value of defending the country, namely love for the country. that raises the question, "How big is the awareness of defending the country from the Indonesian millennial generation during the Covid-19 outbreak and the form of state defense being carried out?" Therefore, in this study the author will explain the amount of concern for the defense of the millennial generation during the Covid-19 pandemic.

METHOD
The research method used to answer this problem is a mixed-methods method (qualitative-quantitative). The qualitative approach is used with the literature study method, namely the collection of library materials and, the quantitative approach is used with the survey method, namely the making of a Google Form questionnaire.
This research was conducted online. The data collection stage begins with primary data collection. Primary data was obtained from a closed questionnaire using Google Form which was distributed online to 65 samples of the millennial generation involving 60% of students and 40% of the general public.
Then secondary data to support primary data is obtained from literature studies.
Literature reviews were obtained from the Google Scholar database using the keywords "State Defense" "National Resilience", "Millennial Generation", and "Covid-19 Pandemic".
Data analysis was carried out using analytical description techniques used to collect material from questionnaires distributed about forms of state defense for the millennial generation during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Implementation of the Health Protocol as a Form of State Defense
The Covid-19 outbreak has been designated as a non-natural national disaster that country and nation, and to overcome every threat." In line with that, article 9 paragraph (1) states that "Every citizen has the right and obligation to participate in efforts to defend the state which are manifested in the implementation of state defense" which is further strengthened by paragraph (2)

Millennial Generation Defends State's Awareness in the Middle of a Pandemic
Based on research involving 65 millennials, it is known that 98.5% of them are aware of their obligation to defend the country during the Covid-19 pandemic that has hit Indonesia. Table 1 shows the level of concern of the millennial generation as pg. 6 illustrated in figures 1-5. The number 5 shows a high level of concern and 50.8% of the respondents show this result. This means that the majority of respondents care about the current crisis conditions that are being experienced by Indonesia. Table 1.The level of concern of the millennial generation to defend the country during a pandemic

Level of Care Percentage
Very Unconcerned 0% Unconcerned 0% Ordinary 5% Care 44% Very care 51% To overcome this, the Government of Indonesia issued a policy that everyone must apply social distancing. From the research results listed in Table 2, it can be seen that as many as 83.1% of respondents have implemented it, 15.4% of respondents sometimes apply it, and 1.5% have not. form of COVID-19 prevention following government recommendations, while 4.6% have not prepared or had cleaning supplies.
In addition to social distancing policies, to implement a healthy lifestyle, the government also advised that all activities, both school, and work, be carried out from their respective homes. The analysis of Table 4 illustrates this. As many as 81.5% of respondents have carried out every activity from home, 15.4% still often leave the house, and as many as 3.1% always do their activities outside the home and cannot be replaced with online work from home. The study further discusses why these respondents are still frequently outside their homes during the current epidemic crisis because of the demands of their work to leave the house and cannot be replaced by the use of online media. The types of work referred to include small traders in traditional markets, masons, farmers, and construction workers. If they leave their jobs to stay at home, they will not have any income to support their families. Based on the results above, it appears that the Covid-19 pandemic is occurring not only in the health sector but also in the economic sector.

Government as a Form of State Defense
Further research shows the form of the respondent's contribution to the handling efforts undertaken by the Indonesian government. The form of respondent's contribution can be seen in Table 5 which shows that 80% of respondents have the same perception, that staying at home is the best thing that can be done to support the government, while the other 20% have a different perception. Different forms of contribution include participating in online fundraising events, material contributions in the form of money and necessities (given to small communities affected by Covid), and medical devices (given to medical personnel who are experiencing a PPE crisis), there are also volunteers in activities spraying disinfectant in the area where they live, and wearing a mask when outside the home. The increasing need for masks is being used by tailors to produce masks to be sold to the public. However, some respondents showed their contribution by providing masks that were given to people who had economic limitations in particular so that they could stay healthy and meet the needs of masks for everyone.
pg. 9 Positive results are also shown by research by Saputro et al (2020) which shows that most people have implemented social distancing. Apart from the application of social distancing, the community's attitude is also positive in implementing other health protocols such as providing cleaning tools and carrying out activities from home.
However, the results obtained still show that there are still a small proportion of people who carry out work activities outside the home in full. As a fisherman, he is still active outside the house as usual.
Furthermore, the survey also shows that the form of the contribution of millennials as an effort to defend the country when a pandemic occurs is carried out in several ways, from the easiest, namely staying at home, then volunteering, raising funds for the community affected by a pandemic, and others.
These results show positive behavior and awareness of defending the country for millennials in Indonesia during a pandemic. However, it is hoped that a more in-depth study with a wider target population and respondents from other regions of Indonesia will demonstrate the accuracy of the results of this study.

CONCLUSION
Based on the results of this study, during the Covid-19 pandemic, the millennial generation shows high concern and makes a good contribution as a form of state defense to maintain national resilience and support the Indonesian government in its prevention and handling extraordinary event. Their contribution in defending the country is not only physically and energetically but also materially. With the characteristics of the online lifestyle, millennials have made good and wise use of technology even though they have to stay at home. Through social media, they hold a fundraising event which will later be given to the poor affected by Covid-19 and medical personnel who lack PPE (personal protective equipment). With the urgency of the current state of Indonesia, people are required to care for their nation and state.
Therefore, efforts to defend the state are very important to be carried out to help the government and show love for the country, a harmonious relationship between the government and its people, and awareness of the obligations of the nation and state to every citizen.
