TodayThe sky is the sky, and you are with it[Article 9Year 1Month 29daysIt was another tense and exciting assessment, and the squad leader Bolin narrowed his eyes and said with a wicked smile: "How many points did you get this time?" I rubbed my sleepy eyes and woke up from my dream, only to realize that the song in the plane, the umbrella flowers under the moon, the wind and sand and so on have come to an end, but now I recall this short but fulfilling training time, I still remember it vividly.
Rally
In September, a brief training notice brought together new platoon commanders from all over the world. After receiving the notice, I took my luggage with excitement and apprehension and got on the train to the training team. Looking up at the blue sky through the car window, my thoughts became complicated by the slowly drifting clouds – looking forward to a new moult in the air and unsure about whether I would be able to adapt to the challenges that followed.
Do you dare to jump? The comrade-in-arms who came with him asked. To be honest, I don't know, but I know it's going to be an experience of a lifetime. 
Start training
Hello everyone! I am your instructor for this umbrella training, my name is Wang Bolin. I saw a tall, thin man with a serious expression, a dark face, and a neat salute to us, and the curtain of the training camp was opened.
The scorching sun of September seems to be competing with us, more enthusiastic and more determined.
At the beginning of the training, the "three brothers" of off-plane, platform, and ring filled my life. The phrase "prepare for leaving the plane" seems to be the whole world is still, and only the beads of sweat dripping on the ground are still reminding me that you have to persevere. It was tiring enough to keep the posture of leaving the plane to prepare, but I didn't expect it to be just an appetizer ......
The thighs that I couldn't lift, the waist that I couldn't bend, and the cramping soles of my feet all made me want to give up for a while, but the phrase in my head, "3,000 moves of my legs, realize the dream of a blue sky" pulled me back from the abyss of depravity again and again, and made me once again full of motivation to devote myself to training. 
Of course, in addition to the bitterness, there are also moments of accomplishment in the training - a perfect off-plane action, an elegant ring landing, a stable platform landing, and a tacit collective in-flight movement. Although the training is very hard and tiring, watching my movements become more and more standard, I feel that all the efforts I have put in are worth it!
Liftoff
Finally, we ushered in the "first jump". The day went more smoothly than I thought - no more or no less, the whole umbrella was done in one go, and the "Good!" on the check line was "Good!" All of them indicate the success of the "first jump". The plane took off slowly, and my emotions became nervous, but fortunately, with the cheering of the instructor and the mutual encouragement of my comrades-in-arms, my original ups and downs gradually calmed down. The door was opened, and the whirring wind puffed up the trouser legs of the squad leader, and also rushed into our excited hearts. The moment I faced the door, I didn't hesitate and jumped out of the cabin. The parachute blossomed, and I hurriedly concentrated on maneuvering the parachute.
The moment I saw myself standing on the earth, I felt as if I had the whole world, and the joy in my heart could not be expressed in words. At that time, I just wanted to tell the launch squad leader who was returning by plane, "I, I succeeded!" ”
Tactics
Below, our classes are divided into venues and running belts. The instructor said sharply at us.
It was already cold in the north in November, but it still couldn't stop our enthusiasm for the training camp. As soon as the umbrella training ended, we also welcomed "new friends", and everyone's mantra changed from "go and close" to "pay attention to the whole class!" The situation now is ......”
The memorization of lesson plans in the cold wind, the crawling progress under the heavy rain, and the review and evaluation under the scorching sun ......While making everyone's originally dark face more vicissitudes, it also deepened the understanding of "tactics". In the end, the two-month tactical training ended with a hearty and comprehensive exercise.
Grow
It is not an exaggeration to say that the days of the training camp are hard, but fortunately, everyone's mood has been high and they have enjoyed it. In life, everyone is united, and they can help each other and solve conflicts and difficulties together; In terms of work, everyone cooperates with each other and works together to build a better training team; During training, everyone fought tenaciously, you chased me, as if everyone didn't want to lose, and they all had endless energy.
Looking back on the past four months, we have refined "various professional skills" - closing our legs, from procrastination to whirring; The whole umbrella is from busy to busy but not chaotic; Tactics, from ignorance to getting better.
In the past four months, we have learned that "unity is strength" - during the exercise, even if everyone is exhausted, they still help each other and cheer each other up, "Your shoulders are too heavy, I'll help you resist for a while" "Come on!" It's almost time to get to the break," and something like that continued throughout.
In the past four months, we have learned that "persistence is victory" - in the physical fitness assessment, we have surpassed the limit and broken through ourselves again and again; In the preparation of the theoretical exam, we were not afraid of the cold and worked overtime to memorize in the wind and snow; During the tactical exercise, even though our elbows were bruised and our bodies were full of pain, we still did not give up and moved forward! Looking at everyone's dark faces, firm eyes, and thick arms in the final graduation photo, I think this is the growth that the training has brought us! 
The days of the training camp are like a kite with a broken string, a little bit away, and we have already regrouped and headed for a new journey. I believe that in the next post, we will unswervingly forge the ability to kill the enemy with the courage of "high-altitude parachuting", the hard work of "tactical drills", and the persistence of "long-distance zipper", so as to contribute to the realization of the goal of the 100th anniversary of the founding of the army as scheduled!
