In this September when the rice fields are in full bloom and fruits are everywhere, I finally got my wish and proudly became a w88 majorGraduate student. This is also a special September, with bright golden wind and red flags. We are about to celebrate the 70th anniversary of our great motherland. As a member of the People's Navy in the past, I also witnessed the responsibility and responsibility of the great motherland in this journey across the stars and the sea.
Back in time 4 years ago, it was also in such a beautiful September. I was full of expectations and nervousness, preparingParticipate"Harmonious Mission 2015"Action。This missionwill visit 7 countries and regions including Mexico, Peru, and Barbados in the Pacific Rim,SuiProvide free medical and humanitarian services. This is the fifth time that the Navy's Peace Ark hospital ship has performed a series of "Harmony Mission" missions since it was commissioned in 2008。
I still remember when the ship sailed to Grenada on the other side of the Pacific Ocean. This island country in the Caribbean has only about 110,000 people in the country, but it is one of the countries visited by this mission with the most shortage of medical resources and the strongest medical needs of the people. There is no CT in the whole country, and even B-ultrasound and other medical equipment are rare. Ordinary people who want to see a doctor or have an examination can onlyExtremelyDifficulty. On the day of arrival, local people had already lined up at the pier for miles, waiting eagerly for experts and doctors from China who had traveled thousands of miles to diagnose and treat them.
Among them, there are old men who are dragging on slippers without heels, their legs are covered with abscesses, and are so thin that they are shapeless; there are patients who are almost blind due to cataracts, but have no money for treatment; and there is also a father who heard that Peace Ark is coming to a free clinic, and came overnight with his daughter from other provinces and cities to see a doctor. I see the same thing in their eyes, which is hope. When a 71-year-old local female patient successfully underwent cataract surgery, tears flowed down her wrinkled face when she took off the gauze on her eyes and saw the world again. She couldn't help but hold the doctor's hand and said tremblingly: "Thank you China! Thank you Chinese doctors! It was you who gave me a pair of eyes that gained light and allowed me to see the sun again! ".
Walking across the ocean, benevolent to the world. Whether it is the typhoon-stricken areas in the Philippines, or the African epidemic areas where Ebola is rampant, whether it is the rough seas and oceans, or the poverty-stricken areas lacking medical treatment, the Peace Ark has a resounding name in the local area - "the messenger of light sent by God." And this messenger who traveled across the ocean to deliver love and peace also showed the world the responsibility and responsibility of a great motherland.
Realizing the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation has been the ideal and pursuit of the Chinese people since modern times. The "Chinese Dream" is first and foremost a "dream of a strong military." Whether it is evacuation from Yemen, escorting in the Gulf of Aden, patrolling the Diaoyu Islands, or protecting the country's maritime security of more than 3 million square kilometers, the People's Navy has stepped out of the country and gone deep into the deep blue, witnessing step by step the development, growth, rejuvenation and rise of the great motherland.
As one of them, I have fought side by side with it and traveled across the sea together. I remember that in early 2016, when relations in the South China Sea were tense, a certain major country sent aircraft carrier formations to harass us in the South China Sea. At this time, I was sent to another warship to assist in related tasks. Unexpectedly, we encountered strong winds and waves just a few days before setting sail, and the sea conditions were very bad. In order to get rid of us, the aircraft carrier formation of a certain big country deliberately moved towards the stormy area in such bad weather, and we had no choice but to follow closely.
Seeing this situation, the other side's frigates began to flank our ship within a short distance of us. We did not show any weakness and refused to give in. The two sides are getting closer and closer, and they are about to collide. The situation is very critical. At this time, above our warships, reconnaissance planes from neighboring countries continued to roar past, and sharp sounds pierced the sky again and again. At this time, the wind and waves became stronger and stronger, and the boat shook more and more. I have never experienced such bad sea conditions. I was shaken around and felt nauseous and wanted to vomit again and again. At this time, the radio station I was guarding kept ringing. It was the other party repeatedly asking us to leave on the VHF. At this moment, I couldn't care less about the discomfort. As soon as the radio rang, I immediately forced myself to concentrate and responded to the other party in loud and serious English: "This is China's territorial waters, please leave immediately!" This is China's territorial waters, please leave immediately! ”
Due to severe seasickness, some comrades have been without water for three days and can only rely on intravenous fluids for support. To be honest, I vomited more than a dozen times in the morning and I couldn’t hold it any longer. But I know that I have to hold on even if I can’t hold on! I must not fall down at this time, I must not fall down. Only another comrade and I on the entire ship were responsible for responding to foreign troops in English and international signals. At this time, I was not representing myself, but the Chinese Navy! We come with a mission and a heavy responsibility. We must drive away the troublemakers from the gate of the motherland! It is this belief and this responsibility that supports me and gives me the perseverance to persevere. After this month of baptism, I have become darker and thinner, but my eyes are full of energy. Not only did we defeat ourselves, we also successfully defended the southern gate of the motherland.
Today’s China is no longer the same country that was invaded by foreigners a hundred years ago and has its doors wide open. The reason why we are so confident and confident when resisting foreign enemies is that the strength of our motherland gives us strength. President Xi said, "Building a powerful and modern navy is the strategic support for building a maritime power and an important part of realizing the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation." Today, the Chinese Navy's dream of a strong military is constantly being realized in this great new era, and as a witness of it, I also realized my own passionate youth here.
As young people in the new era, we are both dream chasers and dream realizers. In this most beautiful period of youth, we must use our passion and ideals to make new achievements and confess to our motherland! Use struggle and dedication to build a new era and express your love to the motherland! May you be rich, may you be safe and healthy, may you always be strong!
