During the Spring Festival, why did the troops activate the second level of combat readiness? While most people are busy pasting Spring Festival couplets, making dumplings, and watching the Spring Festival Gala, the troops can't take a holiday. At this time, all kinds of potential safety hazards and social security problems may take the opportunity to come out and "make trouble". Therefore, sometimes in order to ensure social stability and people's security during the Spring Festival, the activation of secondary combat readiness has become an important measure. So, what is secondary combat readiness? To put it simply, the troops of the whole country have entered a state of high alert, but they have not yet reached the level of first-level combat readiness. At this time, the troops will strengthen combat readiness duty, closely monitor the enemy's movements, and be ready to attack at any time.
Take, for example, the Spring Festival in 1950. That year was the time when the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea was about to break out. Tensions pervade the whole country, and the festive atmosphere of the Spring Festival is overshadowed by the clouds of war. In order to deal with a possible war, the troops activated the second level of combat readiness during the Spring Festival, and the whole army was ready to go out at any time. At that time, although the common people were also scared in their hearts, they knew that with the protection of the troops, they could live a stable life. As a result, the firecrackers of the Spring Festival are still ringing, and the lanterns of every household are still hanging, but under the lanterns, there is more hope and prayer for peace.
So, what does the troops need to do if the second level of combat readiness is activated during the Spring Festival? First of all, all officers and men were recalled, and officers and men were arranged to be on duty 24 hours a day, and vigilance and patrols were strengthened. During the Spring Festival, everyone was busy paying New Year's greetings and visiting relatives and friends, but the officers and men of the unit did not have this idle time. At this time, they may put on thick winter clothes, cotton hats, and hold ** in their hands, patrolling the snow to make sure that no enemy sneaks in. Secondly, in the second level of combat readiness, the troops must prepare various emergency supplies, such as food, water, medicine, **, etc.
Because no one knows if the unexpected will suddenly erupt. Although they will not be able to go home for the New Year during the Spring Festival, the officers and men of the unit will conduct various actual combat drills to enhance their ability to cope with war. These drills may include shooting, tactical training, wilderness survival, etc., to ensure a quick response in a war. Finally, they can also communicate with their families, although the officers and soldiers are very busy at this time, they will also try to find time to communicate with their families. After all, the Spring Festival is a day of reunion, and even in the barracks, the officers and soldiers miss their families. They may report their safety to their families and tell them that they are working hard for the security of the country.
So will the rest of the world also step up their vigilance during the big holidays? Of course, the U.S. will also be on heightened alert during major holidays to ensure safety and the joy of the population. Because of the large amount of social activities during the festival, there will be a corresponding increase in public security problems. During major holidays, such as Thanksgiving, Christmas, or National Day, you may see U.S. police patrolling major streets and public places to ensure the orderly flow of people and prevent accidents or other safety incidents. At the same time, some important facilities, such as office buildings, museums, shopping malls, etc., may also add security measures, such as adding security personnel, installing surveillance cameras, etc.
In addition to these regular security measures, the United States will strengthen intelligence gathering and risk assessment to ensure adequate understanding and preparedness for potential threats. For example, some time before the holidays, you may see some travel warnings or safety tips issued in the United States to remind people to stay safe during the holiday season. In short, the military forces of various countries will maintain a high degree of alert during large-scale festivals, ready to deal with all kinds of emergencies at any time, and it is better not to cause chaos during the Spring Festival.
