In 2010, I took the position of battalion commander. It was a hot summer, and the sun was scorching the earth like a fireball. In the camp, the soldiers sweated and trained hard. Among this group of soldiers, there was a young man named Xiao Wang, who was hardworking, brave, and loved by everyone. However, at this moment, a question came to me.
Xiao Wang wants to stay in the team and continue to serve the country and the people. He told me that it was his dream and that he was willing to give everything for it. However, the head of the regiment insisted on opposing it, believing that Xiao Wang's family was in superior conditions and should return home to inherit the family business and contribute to the development of the country.
"Battalion commander, I know the regiment commander is for my good, but I really want to stay here." Xiao Wang's eyes looked at me firmly.
I patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly, "Xiao Wang, I understand your feelings. But the head of the regiment is also for your own good, and we need to take a long-term view of this issue. ”
One day, the regiment commander called me to his office and said solemnly: "This little Wang, I have observed him for a long time, although he has performed well, but the life of the army is hard, and he can't adapt to it." You, as the battalion commander, have to think about his future. ”
I replied, "Commander, Xiao Wang is indeed very determined. I think we can give him a chance and if he can do well in training, let him stay. ”
The head of the regiment hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded in agreement.
The special training began, and Xiao Wang tried his best to challenge his limits. In a simulated combat exercise, he bravely rescued his trapped comrades, showing tenacious perseverance and responsibility. However, just as everyone was cheering for his performance, the unexpected happened.
A smoke bomb suddenly exploded, and Xiao Wang, in order to protect his comrades, was hit by the shock wave of the explosion and fell unconscious. We rushed him to the hospital, and the regiment commander and I stayed outside the emergency room with a heavy heart.
A few hours later, the doctor told us that although Xiao Wang had passed the dangerous period, he might never wake up. The regiment commander said sadly: "It's all my fault, if I hadn't objected to him staying in the team, I wouldn't have what happened today." ”
I comforted the regimental commander: "Commander, don't blame yourself. We have to believe in Xiao Wang, he is so strong, he will definitely wake up. ”
A miracle happened. After being in a coma for three days and three nights, Xiao Wang opened his eyes. He said weakly: "Battalion commander, I dreamed that I returned to the army and trained with everyone. ”
The head of the regiment and I looked at each other and smiled, tears moistening our eyes.
After a period of rehabilitation training, Xiao Wang finally returned to the army. The regimental commander personally awarded him a military medal for his heroic deeds. And Xiao Wang also stayed in the army as he wished and continued his military career.
This story tells us that as long as we have faith and bravely pursue our dreams, we will always encounter beautiful scenery that belongs to us. And this is also the belief that I have always adhered to as a soldier.
Time is like flowing water, fleeting. Xiao Wang's days in the army were full and happy, and his growth made me feel sincerely gratified. The accident seemed to be just an episode in his military career, but his tenacity and bravery became a good story for the whole regiment.
One day, the regiment commander called me to the office and said with a serious expression: "Battalion commander, there is an important task recently, and I plan to send Xiao Wang to carry it out. ”
I was slightly surprised: "Commander, although Xiao Wang has performed well, after all, he is still inexperienced, is this task too difficult?" ”
The head of the regiment pondered for a moment, and then replied: "It is precisely because this is a difficult task that I decided to let Xiao Wang go. I am sure that he will be able to do it. ”
In this way, Xiao Wang was selected to carry out a special mission. On the eve of the mission, I found him and said earnestly: "Xiao Wang, this mission is very important, you have to be careful. ”
He looked at him firmly, patted his chest and said, "Battalion commander, don't worry, I will definitely complete the task successfully and win glory for the troops." ”
The mission began, and Xiao Wang and his comrades went deep behind enemy lines to collect intelligence. However, just as they were about to complete their mission, the situation changed abruptly. A comrade accidentally triggers an enemy trap and puts the team in danger.
Xiao Wang was not afraid of danger and decisively commanded the team to launch a counterattack. In the heat of battle, he stepped forward, diverted enemy fire, and won the opportunity for his comrades to retreat. However, he also lost contact with the team as a result.
When we learned the news of Xiao Wang's disappearance, the regiment commander anxiously ordered: "Immediately organize a search and rescue team, and find Xiao Wang no matter what!" ”
The search and rescue operation was carried out in an intense and orderly manner. A few days later, we finally found Xiao Wang in an abandoned house. His military uniform was tattered, and his face was covered with dust, but his eyes were still steadfast.
I rushed forward and held his hand tightly: "Xiao Wang, you are really our hero!" ”
Xiao Wang smiled and said, "Battalion commander, I just completed my mission. And, I'm alive, aren't I? ”
After returning to the team, Xiao Wang was commended by the whole group. His heroic deeds spread throughout the unit and became an example for the recruits. And the head of the regiment was also impressed by him, and said with emotion: "Xiao Wang, you have proved yourself, and I am glad for the original decision." ”
Since then, Xiao Wang's performance in the army has become more and more excellent. He not only became the elite of special operations, but also carried out important tasks many times, contributing his strength to the security of the country and the people.
Time flies, I have left the post of battalion commander, but the story of Xiao Wang has been circulating in the army. Whenever I recall that time, I will think of Xiao Wang's firm eyes and brave responsibility. He used his actions to interpret the power of faith, and also made me understand that as long as you have dreams and move forward bravely, you can always create an immortal legend.
As the days passed, Xiao Wang's reputation in the army became higher and higher. His name has become synonymous with bravery and tenacity. One day after I left the post of battalion commander, I received a special letter with Xiao Wang's name written on it.
In the letter, Xiao Wang told me that he was about to face a new challenge - to be selected to participate in the International Special Forces Competition. He was well aware of the importance of this competition for him personally and for the country as a whole, so he sought my advice and support in the letter.
I looked at the letter and felt a warm current in my heart. I immediately returned to the army and found Xiao Wang.
"Xiao Wang, this competition is a rare opportunity, I believe you will be competent." I patted him on the shoulder and encouraged.
There was a determined glint in his eyes: "Battalion commander, I will not let you down, I will prove the military strength of our country with my actions." ”
On the eve of the competition, Xiao Wang had a harsh closed training. I visit him from time to time, and every time I see him more mature and confident.
Finally, the day of the competition has arrived. The whole regiment cheered for Xiao Wang, and the regiment commander personally saw him off: "Xiao Wang, you are the pride of our regiment, you must return safely." ”
Xiao Wang nodded, carried his bags, and embarked on the journey.
The competition was extremely fierce, and the elite special forces from all over the world gathered together to show their strengths. Xiao Wang showed extraordinary military quality and excellent psychological quality in the competition, all the way through, and finally in the final, he won the unanimous approval of the judges with a beautiful tactical move.
When Xiao Wang stood on the podium with the trophy in his hand, at that moment, we were all proud of him. He is not only our hero, but also the hero of the country.
After the game, I saw Xiao Wang again. He smiled and said to me, "Battalion commander, I have lived up to your expectations. ”
I held his hand tightly: "Xiao Wang, you are doing a good job. In this competition, you not only won honors, but also inspired countless comrades. ”
With the passage of time, Xiao Wang's military career became more and more brilliant. He became an instructor of special forces and trained batch after batch of excellent special forces. And his story has become a tradition in the army, inspiring generations of young soldiers.
In the dead of night, I always think back to the time I spent with Xiao Wang. The young man who once persevered for his dream has now become a legend in the army. His growth and success taught me the importance of faith and courage. And in Xiao Wang, I see an eternal belief - as long as you have a dream and forge ahead, you can always create miracles.
A few years later, Xiao Wang was promoted to deputy commander of the special forces. His responsibilities have become greater, and the burden on his body has become heavier. But Xiao Wang did not slack off because of this, but worked harder and interpreted the responsibility of a soldier with his own practical actions.
One day, I received a call from Xiao Wang, who invited me to a special ceremony. I readily agreed, full of anticipation.
On the day of the ceremony, I came to the camp of the special forces. Xiao Wang stood on the rostrum with a solemn expression. Beside him, stood a young soldier with a determined glint in his eyes.
Xiao Wang beckoned to me, I walked up to the rostrum, and he smiled and said to me: "Battalion commander, today I want to introduce you to a special fighter. ”
He pointed to the young soldier: "This is Li Yong, he is the youngest soldier of our special forces and the successor I personally selected. ”
Li Yong saluted me, and I smiled back. Looking at Li Yong, I seemed to see the young Xiao Wang back then, and I couldn't help but feel emotional.
Xiao Wang continued: "Battalion commander, Li Yong will become a new force in our special forces, and I will do my best to train him and make him a pillar of our country." ”
I looked at Li Yong, and my heart was full of anticipation. I know that under Xiao Wang's guidance, Li Yong will definitely become an outstanding special forces.
After the ceremony, Xiao Wang invited me to visit the training of the special forces. At the training ground, I saw a group of young soldiers, their posture was tall, their eyes were determined, and they were full of energy.
Xiao Wang told me that these young soldiers were all hand-selected by him, and they all had a common goal - to fight for the security of the country and the people.
Looking at these young warriors, my heart is filled with respect. They are the future of our country and the hope of our army.
When I left the special forces, Xiao Wang sent me to the door. I looked at his back, and my heart was full of emotion.
Xiao Wang, a young man who once insisted on his dreams, has now become a legend in the army. His growth and success taught me the importance of faith and courage. And in Xiao Wang, I see an eternal belief - as long as you have a dream and forge ahead, you can always create miracles.
