Natural disasters remind us that people are fragile and small in the face of natural disasters. Typhoon Du Surui swept through, torrential rains in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei continued unstoppable, and the Central Meteorological Observatory predicted that more than 130 million people would be affected, and one of the hardest hit places was Zhuozhou in Hebei Province, where 130,000 people had been affected and many villagers had not been evacuated in time. During the floods, people faced the dilemma of cutting off water, food, electricity and connectivity. At this time, rescuers from all over the country rushed to Hebei to urgently collect materials and equipment to extend a helping hand to the disaster area.
However, in this disaster, there are two names that are haunting. On July 31, Feng Zhen, a firefighter in Beijing's Haidian District, died while rescuing people trapped in rapids, and yesterday, the Ministry of Emergency Management posthumously honored him with first-class merit and approved him as a martyr. But the other two heroes are rarely mentioned. Also on July 31, Wang Hongchun, a member of the Beijing Blue Sky Rescue Team, and her teammates found that the foundation of the Pangezhuang Bridge was badly damaged while transporting trapped people, and they resolutely stayed on the bridge to ensure the safety of people and vehicles. However, the sudden flood peak swept away 6 team members and two road administrators, and only four rescuers have been successfully rescued, while Wang Hongchun was unfortunately killed.
Wang Hongchun, a 41-year-old director of a real estate company, joined the Blue Sky Rescue Team because of her love for rescue work. She often supported the team out of her own pocket, and before this departure, she also bought a large amount of food at her own expense and prepared dumplings for the team members in advance. However, fate was unfair and she could never return, leaving behind a 6-year-old daughter waiting for her mom in this world.
In addition to Wang Hongchun, there is another member of the Blue Sky Rescue Team, named Chen Yuansheng. On July 29, he and his team went to Hongse Town, Quanzhou, Fujian Province, to carry out mass transfer work. He worked tirelessly in the flood and successfully rescued more than 20 trapped people, but eventually died of overwork.
Chen Yuansheng is a staff member in the community and he has always been a very enthusiastic person. In the early days of the pandemic, he was the first to sign up as a volunteer and set up a Hydration Station out of his own pocket to provide free ice water to those in need. In the two years he joined Blue Sky Rescue, he spent more than 1,417 hours of public service. His WeChat signature reads: "Give hope to the living, preserve the dignity of the deceased." He wanted to spend his life practicing this faith, but he stayed in 2023 forever.
Why share the story of these two heroes? Because as members of the civil rescue team, they may not be able to receive the honor and recognition like Feng Zhen, but their great deeds are also worthy of being remembered by the people of the whole country. No matter what kind of disaster they face, there is always a group of people who will never be absent, they are those seemingly ordinary people, usually hiding in all walks of life, but once someone needs help, they will quickly assemble, put on blue clothes, and rush to dangerous places. They are members of the Blue Sky Rescue Team.
Blue Sky Rescue Teams may be unfamiliar to most people, but they are an integral part of the rescue effort. Whether it was the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake, the 2010 Yushu earthquake, or the Henan flood and the Chongqing wildfire, they always acted quickly to help those in need. They not only heroically rescue disasters, but also lend a helping hand in their daily lives. When extreme weather broke out in the Gansu Baiyin Mountain Marathon, they went to search for and rescue stranded athletes. When a female college student disappeared during the flight of the wingsuit of Tianmen Mountain, the Zhangjiajie Blue Sky Rescue Team did not hesitate to enter the mountain to search. Whether it is a man who committed suicide and jumped into the river or a lost old man, they will go to search regardless of life and death.
The members of the Blue Sky Rescue Team are a very special group of people. They are willing to buy equipment and pay for it out of their own pockets in order to save people, regardless of pay
Rescue costs. They pursue professionalism and actively learn a variety of rescue skills such as first aid, rope skills, wilderness survival skills, air and water rescue, etc., to provide more effective rescue. But at the same time, they stick to their principles and refuse to accept sponsorship in the form of advertising or marketing, because their goals are pure, they only want to be able to help people, not pursue personal gain.
These behaviors make one wonder, why do they do this? Why are they willing to give so much, even risking their lives to save strangers? There are no easy answers to these questions, but perhaps some clues can be found in their faith and sense of mission.
They represent not only the spirit of rescue, but also the warmth of humanity. They are the most ordinary group of people in society, but at critical moments, they become the most extraordinary heroes. Their efforts, although unrequited, are the most precious gift in life for those who are rescued. This is their faith, this is their spirit.
Because of such a group of people, this country has been able to stay strong in the face of disaster. They are unsung heroes, they are ordinary people, but they have extraordinary courage and selfless love. They don't care about fame and fortune, they only care about every life, which is something that each of us should respect and learn. In every rescue operation in the future, I hope that those ordinary and great heroes can return safely, because their existence makes this world a better place.
Finally, let us thank those unknown Blue Sky Rescue Team members, thank them for their selfless dedication, thank them for their courage and perseverance, they have always been there, protecting us. No matter what happens, they will appear at the first time, put on blue clothes, rush to dangerous places, in order to save people, for the sake of life, they do not count gains and losses, do not count life and death, this is them, this is the real hero.
