Zhang Haoran, | with a pen: from the University of Science and Technology of China to the military camp

Xin'an Evening News Anhui Network Dawan News Zhang Haoran, born in 2001, is from Jinhua, Zhejiang. In his sophomore year of high school, he was admitted to the junior class of the University of Science and Technology of China with excellent results. After graduating this year, with the support of his family and teachers, he resolutely chose to sign up for the army. "When I was a child, my dream was to be a scientist, and now I want to join the army to defend my family and defend my country." The childish big boy smiled firmly and said, "The experience of joining the army will become the most precious memory of my life." In more than a month, Zhang Haoran will officially step into the military camp and chase his dream.

I wanted to go to the barracks to hone myself

Since childhood, he has been known as someone else's child, won various awards in physics and mathematics competitions, loves literature, loves writing... Zhang Haoran, a 20-year-old "school bully" this year, exuded a strong bookish atmosphere, "Choosing to join the army is to exercise myself." ”

When he first entered the university, Zhang Haoran always felt that joining the army was a distant thing for him. During the epidemic last year, Zhang Haoran took online classes at home, and he gained a lot of weight due to less exercise. In order to lose weight, Zhang Haoran often goes to the gym to exercise.

A group of like-minded young people in the gym often talk about military and political topics. At this moment, Zhang Haoran germinated the idea of joining the army and serving the country, "If the country needs us to go to the battlefield, I am obligated!" ”

After learning the news of the recruitment, Zhang Haoran consulted with his parents and took the initiative to sign up. Zhang Haoran's parents were both party members, and his grandfather was a former soldier. During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the family moved from Shandong to Zhejiang and settled down. When he was young, his father often told the story of his grandfather joining the army and fighting, and he was very supportive of his decision. "My father had a wish to join the army, but it didn't happen. I am now carrying a pen from Rong, and I am also continuing my family's dream. ”

Prepare for enlistment during the summer holidays

From getting the enlistment notice to officially entering the military camp, this summer, Zhang Haoran was both excited and nervous. He should strengthen physical exercise to get his body to the best state. "The first three months of the new barracks may be the most tiring and painful, and I want to adapt to the training as soon as possible." I was mentally prepared to suffer. ”

Zhang Haoran set a plan for himself to exercise, going to the gym every day rain or shine, at least 2 hours at a time. In addition, he signed up for a driver's license and plans to get one during the summer. Before joining the army, Zhang Haoran planned to go home to visit his parents, eat the meals made by his parents, and feel the warmth of family affection, "After all, the chance of returning home to reunite after enlistment is less." ”

Zhang Haoran said that before he signed up for the army, he talked to many people, including teachers and classmates, "They are very supportive of me, and the teachers have also given me a lot of guidance and advice." Maybe in the future I will retire and go back to school, maybe I will seize the opportunity to stay in the army. Either way, I was ready to spend this unforgettable military experience. ”

Hopefully, what you've learned will be of great use

In recent years, college students have responded to the call of the state and more and more conscripts into the army, "As far as our University of Science and Technology of China is concerned, there are many more graduates joining the army this year than in previous years." Zhang Haoran said that in the past, most of the students of Chinese science and technology colleges went to study and further study after graduation, and now many young people with lofty ideals choose to join the army and serve the country, "I am a graduate of the junior class, I have an advantage in age, and I take advantage of my youth to go to the army to exercise myself and prepare for the future development of further education." "During college, Zhang Haoran was very interested in popular science and shifted from a physics major to a science and technology communication major." The teachers of the College of Humanities used AR technology to popularize chemical reactions and shoot chemical reactions for primary and secondary school students to show the beauty of chemistry, and I became deeply interested in these and hoped to apply the knowledge I learned to the life of the army. Zhang Haoran said that the green barracks life is about to unfold, and he is full of expectations.
