In the yellowed **, Zhang Dawei's military uniform is always straight. In his 25-year military career, he has grown from an ordinary soldier to a veteran battalion cadre, and has successively served as a deputy battalion officer, instructor and propaganda section chief. In the barracks, his name is a benchmark for young soldiers, synonymous with steadfastness, diligence and loyalty.
However, despite his illustrious resume, the path to promotion has been extremely difficult. The scarcity of political positions and the relationship he was not good at became an insurmountable obstacle in the special land of the army. Every time the promotion list is announced, he always accepts the results with an indifferent mentality. He knew that his abilities and talents were not inferior to those of his colleagues who had been promoted successfully, but fate had not favored him.
Teach Zhang, why haven't you changed jobs yet?An old friend, Principal Li, once asked half-jokingly.
Zhang Dawei just smiled slightly: "I still have an unfinished mission in the army. There was a determined glint in his eyes, as if to herald the beginning of a new chapter in his career.
The years have carved vicissitudes on Zhang Dawei's forehead, but his eyes are still as bright as ever. During his military career, every job transfer was a new challenge.
As a deputy battalion officer, he has handled complex and cumbersome logistics to ensure that the troops' supplies are always efficient and orderly. In the post of instructor, he is not only a master of tactical training, but also a spiritual mentor of soldiers, and his speech always inspires soldiers to overcome difficulties and challenge themselves. As the head of the propaganda section, his articles were widely praised in the newspapers and periodicals of the army, and his words could always penetrate into the hearts of the people and arouse the patriotic enthusiasm of the soldiers.
Despite his outstanding performance in various positions, the bar for promotion always seemed unattainable to him. He has seen many young and promising colleagues rise through the ranks because of connections or other non-business factors. In this case, anyone will inevitably feel lonely. But Zhang Dawei is different, he never lets these external factors affect his enthusiasm for work.
Once, when there was an emergency in the camp, he was the first to rush to the scene, coordinate the command, and stabilize the situation. Afterwards, his performance was highly praised by his superiors. But when it came to promotion, the superior just sighed: "Zhang Dawei, you are a good cadre, but you know that promotion is not only based on ability." ”
Even so, Zhang Dawei still stuck to his post, and he refused to change jobs again and again. He knew that his heart was still in the army and that his mission was not yet complete.
Teaching Zhang, don't you feel wronged?A young deputy battalion commander asked him privately.
Zhang Dawei smiled: "In the army, the most important thing is to be conscientious, and the rest, let it be." ”
Just when he thought that his military career would be spent in such a dull life, fate inadvertently opened a new page for him.
In the autumn of that year, an unexpected piece of news broke the calm of the camp: the post of deputy regimental commander was vacant. The vacancy of this post caused quite a stir in the troops, and many people with lofty ideals secretly geared up. However, in this competition without gunpowder, Zhang Dawei did not show much interest. His experience taught him that he had little chance without a background.
However, the unexpected happened. At a cadre meeting, the regiment commander suddenly mentioned Zhang Dawei's name: "Zhang Dawei, your performance in the army has always been excellent, do you have any thoughts on this position?"”
At this moment, the entire conference room fell into a brief silence. Zhang Dawei was also shocked by this sudden question. He looked at the regimental commander with a complicated glint in his eyes. He knew it could be the most important opportunity of his military career.
He took a deep breath and said calmly, "If the regiment thinks I'm suitable, I'm willing to accept this challenge." ”
In the days that followed, Mr. Zhang's name became the focus of discussion inside and outside the camp. Many people were surprised by this decision of the regiment headquarters, after all, according to convention, the position of deputy regiment commander is often filled by those with backgrounds and connections. But Mr. Zhang's performance convinced everyone: his deep military qualities, excellent leadership skills, and outstanding performance in multiple positions proved that he was the most suitable candidate.
At this decisive moment, Zhang Dawei's heart was both excited and calm. This is not only a recognition of his years of hard work, but also an affirmation of his military spirit.
In the end, Zhang Dawei was promoted to deputy head of the regiment as he wished. This time, he did not go through the usual conversation procedure, but made a decision directly by the Youth League Committee. This rare situation caused widespread discussion among the troops, but it was more of a praise and affirmation of Zhang Dawei.
On the day of his promotion, Zhang Dawei stood on the playground of the barracks, the sun shining on his resolute face. Looking back on his military career, he has grown from a young recruit to a respected deputy regimental commander, with sweat and persistence at every step.
Deputy Head Zhang, congratulations!A young company commander stepped forward and gave him a military salute.
Zhang Dawei nodded slightly, his eyes full of gratitude: "Thank you, but I want to thank the entire army even more, and everyone's support and recognition." ”
At that moment, he understood that his promotion was not only a personal honor, but also the best proof of his original intention and professional ethics. His story has become a good story in the army, inspiring generations of soldiers.
