There is a question on the Internet: "Why can Du Fuguo stay in the army when he is disabled?" This answer is very powerful, share it with everyone!
Recently, a piece of news about Du Fuguo showed that just before undergoing surgery, he went to see off the 22nd batch of multifunctional engineering detachments to Lebanon.
One of the People's Liberation Army Daily's newsletters recorded such a detail. A female soldier who participated in the peacekeeping campaign told the soldier that she had the idea of joining the army after reading his heroic deeds in her sophomore year of high school: "The squad leader of Fuguo, your sentence 'You stand back and let me come' back then, I don't know how many students were touched and how many enthusiastic young people were inspired. ”
Today, more than two months later, the area where this engineering detachment is carrying out its mission is extremely close to the line of fire of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. I think that the perseverance and courage of those peacekeepers under the fire of war must have been guided and inspired by the name "Du Fuguo".
A comrade-in-arms of the soldier told me that the soldier had returned to the "mine-sweeping brigade" a few years agoHe will implement the daily life system like all soldiers, will participate in physical training like everyone else, run five kilometers, will practice calligraphy alone in his spare time, and will also take on some special tasks from his superiors. In fact, when he appeared in front of younger fighters, that kind of motivation came spontaneously.
And he must remember that sometime before, he and his comrades walked hand in hand through a cleared minefield. Every inch of land stepped on is solid and safe.
I've known this soldier for a long time, but I haven't had many opportunities to meet him. Before the Spring Festival, I accidentally learned that he was hospitalized in Beijing for surgery, and there was no way to visit him in person, so he had to "visit" in the form of **.
The soldiers in WeChat** are still enthusiastic and smiling. It's just that when the phone camera occasionally swipes over the side of his face,The scar that extends from the right side of the face to the neck is still clearly visible - it was the imprint left by ** 6 years ago.
The soldier apologized, and this time he had to complete a repair operation for his right ear, which the hospital was strict about in order to prevent infection, and it was really impossible to meet him. In the past few years, he has done many large and small surgeries. According to the plan, there are still surgeries waiting for him in the coming months.
What does the loss of eyes and hands mean to a young man?
Someone on the Internet explained that sight and touch are the two most important channels for a person to perceive the outside world. The soldier's two passages were closed forever in an instant, leaving not a single crack left.
I looked at his smiling face, and it was hard to imagine how he had spent his first days after the injury.
I tried to ask him, how did he get out of those days? He grinned and said, "Guess? I could tell he was avoiding the memories a bit.
Although I can imagine that the process is very difficult, I don't think the confusion, fear, and pain in it are not something that ordinary people can perceive.
The soldier eventually told me the answer: in the first days of lying in a hospital bed, he would often dream that he was still in good health, and that he could run and clear mines with his comrades. There was a time when he would rather stay in a coma than return to reality. But at the same time, he kept telling himself: he is a soldier, and if he is a soldier, he cannot admit defeat and must come to his senses. His comrades-in-arms and family members are calling and waiting for him.
He made it through that toughest phase on his own and was determined to get back on his feet.
In fact, after the injury, the second time he left the ward, he insisted on standing and walking out. He refused the wheelchair, leaned his arm against the wall, and moved to the door. The three-to-five-centimeter threshold at the door of the ward was the first "enemy" he had to defeat. Eating by yourself with a spoon tied to your arm is considered the second "enemy", and putting on your own clothes is considered the third ......Up to the nth one,What seems normal to us ordinary people is a difficult challenge for him.
In fact, there is no protagonist aura in the real world. Even with great effort, not everything is completely done by a soldier. His comrades-in-arms and his wife became "substitutes" for his eyes and hands, in addition to countless people who he knew or did not know to help him and face everything with him.
Last year, an angel came. A child named Du Eun-chan was born. This name was chosen by him and his wife together, which means to be grateful and to seek splendor. **After the call, he sent me a recording, which was the voice of a one-year-old boy "babbling", which was very beautiful.
Romain Rolland said: "There is only one true heroism in the world, and that is to recognize the truth of life and still love life." ”
Fate took away a few of the soldier's brushes, and the remaining colors may be dull, but he still holds the pen tightly and traces it intently: the lines are tough and the strokes are gentle.
Back to the beginning of the article, if it were me to answer that question, I would tell netizens bluntly:Heroism is the source of spiritual strength for an army. When the example of heroes stands there, an army will have surging bravery and tenacity.
And heroism is not just a life-and-death choice in a critical moment, it is actually more about perseverance day after day. Always believing in the flame of faith in your heart and being willing to give your all to it is the true benchmark of this spirit.
