Deep in the South China Sea, there is a veteran who has been on this sea for 24 years. His name is Qiu Hua, and this veteran witnessed his youth on Zhongjian Island
It has also worked this desolate beach and planted a new piece of greenery. So, what kind of story is this veteran's perseverance and dedication?February 2000,
After Qiu Hua finished his new training, he took a boat to Xisha Island, and when he first arrived at Zhongjian Island, there was only a white sand beach and a vast sea in front of him. There were no recreational facilities on the island, and communication was carried out by letters from supply ships.
Despite the difficult circumstances, Qiu Hua decided to stay on the island. The climatic conditions of Zhongjian Island are very harsh, with high temperatures, high salt, etc
The high humidity environment has brought great difficulties to the life and work of the officers and men. However, Qiu Hua and his comrades-in-arms took the optimistic spirit of "learning Xi from Nanniwan in the past and building today's white sand beach".
Braving the scorching sun and scorching heat, we are not afraid of typhoons and resist the invasion of the natural environment, planting trees, preventing wind and fixing sand, planting seahorse grass, and striving to plant a new green on this barren beach. Nowadays,
Every officer and soldier who goes to the island must personally plant a "rooted tree," which is not only a kind of inheritance, but also a kind of perseverance. In this sea area, Qiu Hua has been on duty for more than 5,500 days
It has handled more than 100 sudden sea and air situations, and has responded in a timely and effective manner to major special situations such as foreign ships trespassing into China's territorial waters on many occasions. He also unreservedly passed on his many years of work experience to young officers and soldiers
I hope they can replace him and continue to protect this sea. In this difficult environment, Qiu Hua has been awarded third-class merits many times, and has also brought out a large number of professional backbones, who have also become masters.
Now, Qiu Hua has a saffron on his chest and has been discharged from the army. This veteran has been in Xisha for 24 years, and his story is also emerging in the South China Sea like a movie
It has become a unique legend in this sea. Qiu Hua on Xisha Island, 24 years like a day, has grown into an excellent soldier. He has won many awards, represented the army in the National Day parade, and was awarded the title of "Marine Figure". But when he left the island, he was filled with enthusiasm and affection. At that moment, only a serviceman who had served in Xisha could understand his feelings. At the moment of farewell, Qiu Hua and his comrades-in-arms hugged with tears, saluted and said goodbye to the retired veterans, and touched the boundary monument for the last time. But their departure is not the end, but the courage to move forward and continue to write brilliantly.
This is a sincere military story, which deserves our deep thought and respect.
