The Datong Municipal Information Office held a press conference on December 26 to introduce in detail the construction of the service guarantee system for veterans in Datong City. Since 2023, the Datong Veterans Affairs Bureau has fully implemented the relevant requirements of the "Veterans Security Law", with the concept of people first and serving veterans as the center, committed to promoting the construction of the veterans' service system, and continuously strengthening the service guarantee work. Up to now, the service stations for veterans at all levels at the municipal, county, township and village communities have been initially formed, and the "five haves" and "full coverage" goals of the city's veterans service system have been basically achieved.
1. Comprehensively promote the construction of the service system.
The Datong Municipal Information Office introduced the construction of the service system since 2023. There are 1 municipal-level service center for veterans, 10 county-level (district) service centers for veterans, 127 township (street) service stations for veterans, and 766 village (community) service stations for veterans. In addition, 502 village (community) veterans' service stations have been established, including stations of different scales for service objects, fully covering all kinds of service needs. This series of construction work shows that Datong City has made remarkable achievements in the field of service for veterans.

In order to deepen the function of the service system, the Datong Municipal Information Office introduced the work requirements of the four-level veterans service center (station). These service centers (stations) focus on the functions of informants, propagandists, mediators, agents, and meritorious servicemen, and make full use of these roles to promote service work. According to statistics, a total of 127 families of servicemen who have received meritorious service awards have been sent good news throughout the year, and more than 100,000 preferential treatment certificates for retired servicemen have been issued. These data show the achievements of the service system in terms of rewards and preferential treatment.

The Datong Municipal Information Office emphasized the work of normalizing contact with retired soldiers. The city has normalized contact with 9,437 veterans, and through this mechanism, it provides more timely and targeted services for veterans.
