Celebrate the spring and spend the festive season together. During the Spring Festival, in addition to making preparations for the festival, the officers and men, civilians, staff, workers, and reserve soldiers of the Pingdingshan Military Subdistrict in Henan Province took various forms to welcome the festival, cutting window flowers, pasting Spring Festivals, hanging lanterns, tying colorful lanterns, wrapping dumplings, and having tea parties. Mobilized up and down, painted the camp with New Year's "makeup", used his own hands to dress up the camp in a colorful and joyful way, and resigned in a different way to welcome the spring.
"The couplet moves a little further to the left, yes, a little more."
"Put the blessing a little higher and more conspicuous."
"The dumplings you wrapped are too big, how many are you going to eat?"
"Play the game and you get a few prizes, and I get a whole bunch!"
The camp area exudes a strong atmosphere of the traditional festivals of the Chinese nation everywhere. One lantern after another hung high, a string of colorful lanterns flashed brightly, and the spring festival was brightly red, and the strong festive atmosphere deeply infected everyone, rising up to the good wishes for the new year of the military camp.
Chinese New Year's Eve night, Wang Yi, commander of the Pingdingshan Military Sub-district, and Liu Kai, political commissar of the colonel, had a joint dinner with officers and men, civilians, staff, and reserve soldiers in the organs and militia equipment warehouses to celebrate and wish a happy new year, and at the same time sent deep blessings and earnest expectations, so that all the personnel who stuck to their posts were warm as fire in their hearts and experienced a different "big family reunion dinner."
"Although I was a reservist, this was also my first Spring Festival in the barracks, and although I could not spend it with my family, it did not affect the most meaningful Spring Festival in my life." This is the voice of Li Haotian, a reserve soldier of the military sub-district.
Since coming here, they have stuck to their posts, insisted on training, and worked hard to get closer to the company, always having a goal in mind: "As soon as they enter the barracks, they are good soldiers, and the company is the backbone." In the big family of the military sub-district, they truly felt the camaraderie of war and also experienced the unique charm of barracks life.
