After 23 years as a soldier, Lei Lei did not slow down the pace of "charging" in the slightest

The protagonist's heart: In charge of the long sword of a big country, we must do our work to the extreme, train our technology to the extreme, and study the equipment to the extreme. --Lei Lei

"There are 3 characteristics of the equipment, namely..." In the mid-spring season, on a certain equipment training ground, listening to the wonderful explanation of a veteran and watching his skillful simulation operation, the officers and soldiers who came to visit and study could not help but have respect: This veteran, the foundation is really solid!

The veteran's name is Lei Lei, a brigade of the Rocket Force launched six battalions to launch a company of second-class sergeant majors, launch technicians and squad leaders. Two months ago, Lei Lei, who was on leave at home, received a call from the unit, and he was temporarily transferred by his superiors to serve as a new equipment explainer. After receiving the task, Lei Lei immediately packed his bags. At this time, his mother had just celebrated her 70th birthday, and his family urged him to wait and leave, but he said half-jokingly: "Can't wait." This year is the 70th anniversary of the founding of New China, my mother's birthday is over, and I still have to hurry to prepare gifts for the birthday of my motherland. ”

Witty and humorous, confident and calm, these eight words describe Lei Lei more appropriately. But after getting along for a long time, what impressed people the most was his dedication to the missile profession.

At the beginning of his enlistment, Lei Lei, who saw strategic missiles for the first time, was very excited. He secretly swore that he would personally send the missiles into the blue sky.

If you want to launch missiles, professionalism is the "bottom card". Seeing the cobweb-like circuit diagram and the small mountain-like professional book, Lei Lei did not flinch. Since then, the company study room, equipment operation room... He can be seen everywhere.

With such a momentum, a little breakthrough, a day by day beyond. Lei Lei finally used his strength to create a military record during the assessment. In 2006, Lei Lei, who had been in the army for 9 years, ushered in the first live-fire launch mission, and as the launch squad leader, he finally personally sent the missile to the blue sky.

Unremitting efforts, so that the honor followed. Lei Lei has been rated as an excellent soldier and an excellent Communist Party member many times, won the third class merit four times, and won the first prize of the Outstanding Talent Award for Non-Commissioned Officers of the Whole Army twice...

"I've been a soldier for 23 years, and I've been dealing with missiles for 23 years. Now that you've achieved fame, you can rest your feet. Some comrades-in-arms saw that Lei Lei was single-minded in his work and advised him to pay attention to rest. However, Lei Lei, who has not been confused for many years, has not slowed down the pace of "charging" in the slightest.

In May last year, after selection, Lei Lei successfully certified as a "Rocket Force Military Training Examiner", followed the working group to the plateau and to the snowy plains, and successfully completed a special assessment task entrusted by the superior. In November, he participated in the selection of the first expert-type professional and technical non-commissioned officers of the Rocket Force, and in the face of 22 missile experts and senior engineer professors from scientific research institutes and brigades, Lei Lei was calm and self-assured, answered like a stream, passed the expert review with the first place, and became the only one of the first 8 expert-type professional and technical non-commissioned officers of the base and the first batch of 8 expert-type professional and technical non-commissioned officers of the Rocket Force.

"With the continuous deepening of national defense and army reform, the requirements for the quality of individual soldiers have also risen, and we cannot afford to wait or slow down." Between trainings, Lei Lei, who was sweating profusely, had a dignified face when interviewed.

When the whistle sounded, the veteran quickly returned to the training hall and launched another charge...
