Stung by a bee, I became a platoon commander because of it The turning point in the military in 1975
When we look back on the long journey of life, there are always some unforgettable moments. Some may be unexpected encounters, while others are life-defining decisions. These moments are like stars lighting up the night, embellishing our lives in a variety of colors. is like the story of veteran Xue Xiaodong, a seemingly ordinary incident turned out to make him a platoon commander. What kind of experience did this make his life change so dramatically?
Back in 1975, Xue Xiaodong, an ordinary child who grew up in a southern mountain village, lived in poverty but was full of rural warmth and family affection. His parents' education allowed him to always maintain a diligent and hard-working attitude. Until one day, he made an unexpected decision - to join the army. In the face of unknowns and challenges, Xue Xiaodong embarked on this arduous journey without hesitation.
In the army, he underwent rigorous training, met precious comrades-in-arms, and gained the appreciation of leaders. But the most ironic scene is the scene of being stung by a bee while standing guard. This seemingly embarrassing moment turned out to be a bright spot in his military career. This makes people wonder why a seemingly insignificant event can have such a profound impact on a person's fate.
Through diligence and hard work, Xue Xiaodong was not only promoted in the army, but also showed outstanding ability in local work after being transferred to another job, and was unanimously recognized and respected by his colleagues. And Xiao Liu, a good partner who joined the army with him, was not as successful as Xue Xiaodong. This comparison leads to deeper thinking, why is it that the same army and the same military career have a completely different ending?
Xue Xiaodong looked back on the past and was full of emotion. He knows that his achievements would not have been possible without the help and support of many people. He thanked his parents for teaching him, thanked his comrades-in-arms for their company, and thanked the leaders for their trust and promotion. Although the journey was difficult, it was full of warmth and touching, which made him full of gratitude and expectation for life.
This makes us think deeply about how every choice we make can affect our future. In life, we are often faced with various choices and choices, and sometimes we are confused and overwhelmed. But as Xue Xiaodong's story tells us, no matter when and where, we must believe in our choices and be brave enough to follow our dreams. Everyone's life is unique and has their own goals and pursuits. Even in the face of difficulties and challenges, we must persevere in forging ahead, because only through continuous trial and effort can we reap growth and progress.
At the same time, we must also learn to be grateful. We are grateful to the people who have helped us and supported us, and to be grateful for every warmth and touching that has appeared in our lives. Just as Xue Xiaodong lamented that his life has been more than 60 years, his achievements are inseparable from the support and help of many people. Therefore, let us learn to cherish everyone around us and learn to be grateful for every good thing in life.
Finally, let us face the future with hope and dreams. No matter what challenges and difficulties lie ahead, we must firmly believe that as long as we have faith and work hard, we will eventually usher in our own glorious moment. May we all move forward bravely on the journey of life and create our own wonderful stories!
