Chapter 266: Graduating Soon

A few days later, a general meeting was held in the brigade to award medals to the individuals who participated in the top assessment and met the standards.

In combat units, rewards are divided into tiers.

If we insist on dividing it from the point of difficulty, the best thing in peacetime is the honorary title, which is directly issued by the Central Military Commission and belongs to the highest level of honor.

followed by first, second, and third-class merits, and then down, there are all kinds of martial arts medals and medals.

Further down, there are medals such as outstanding soldiers, these places are relatively large, compared with the military top medals, outstanding soldiers are comprehensively judged, and they are selected by the branch of the unit every year, which is relatively easy to get.

Further down, there are all kinds of commendations.

From divisions and brigades to the lowest companies, there are awards.

Although they are all called commendations, they are not the same.

Commendations at and above the battalion level can be filled out and put in the file, while company commendations are usually only verbal.

Generally, the top medal was obtained, and the company would help the soldiers declare the third-class merit according to the situation, but this is not a hard and fast rule, and many times it is just the common name agreement of each unit itself.

For example, the 1st Division is a third-class meritorious service that can be submitted to the company for direct promotion, and if a soldier wants to be submitted for direct promotion, he must meet this condition.

Second-class merit is more difficult to obtain in peacetime, and it is generally necessary to have outstanding contributions, what is outstanding contribution?

It's that you encounter gangsters, fight gangsters, get injured, or appear in local media and newspapers, and become typical.

Those who have won a ranking in a martial arts competition in the whole army or at or above the military region level may also be awarded a second-class meritorious service.

As for first-class merit and honorary titles......

This can only be said to depend on fate, and you must make great contributions to get this honor.

On the day of the award, he solemnly walked onto the rostrum and stood in front of a group of officers, and Deputy Chief of Staff Cui Gaoyi personally presented the award.

When the Huang Chengcheng training top gold medal like an Olympic medal hung on his solemn neck, he immediately stood up and gave a standard military salute to Cui Gaoyi.

It is definitely a joy to have this medal for the top trainers.

This is even happier than the previous third-class merit in flood fighting.

The third-class merit solemnity has been hidden and never taken out, although it also represents honor, but emotionally, solemn but deliberately avoided, he is afraid of seeing things and thinking of people, thinking of poor old confusion.

If Lord Yama said that this military medal could be exchanged for the life of the old confused, Zhuang Zheng would not hesitate to take it out, and the deal would be closed without saying a word.

But this medal for the top military training was poured by his own sweat and blood, and was obtained with hard work and struggle.

Since joining the army in December last year, from being ridiculed by Niu Dali, the company can only go to the cooking class, from a recruit who once wanted to be a deserter to becoming one of the top training students in the division today, and solemnly feels that the gold medal on his neck is heavy.

This not only represents honor, but also represents one's own growth.

He decided to return to the row house and write to his parents as soon as possible, telling them the good news.

participated in the pre-promotion squad leader training, made meritorious service again, and won the training top medal again, Zhuang Zhenguo, who has always been strict, should be able to show a smiling face this time, right?

After the last meritorious service, the family also received good news, Zhuang Zhenguo wrote a long letter to Zheng Zheng for the first time, although it was still a strict father's tone, but there was pride between the lines.

It's just that Zhuang Yan was a little depressed because of the old daze's death at that time, and he didn't reply to Zhuang Zhenguo.

This time, he wrote the letter for three pages, and in the end, he was still unsatisfied, hanging the medal and asking his comrades to take a photo with a point-and-shoot camera, washing it out and clipping it in the letter and happily sending it to his parents.

After the all-division competition, there is still more than a month left in the training, and the long-awaited graduation moment seems to be finally coming.

This is a delicate time.

When I first joined the teaching team, not only was it solemn, but almost all the students were looking forward to the day of graduation.

For six months of intensive training, everyone took off more than one layer of skin, lay on the bed countless times, returned to the old company in a dream, became a squad leader, brought new recruits, joined the party, and took the military academy exam......

As the days flew by, these dreams took another step closer in the eyes of all the prospective squad leaders.

The late autumn of Feiyun Mountain was a little cold that year, and the cold mountain wind swept the yellow grass wool on the playground tirelessly, like those soldiers who were accustomed to fighting with fatigue and fatigue every day, like an inexhaustible spring, the water of young strength was inexhaustible, and the steaming youth was bubbling out.

When they were about to graduate, everyone was surprised to find that the legs and stomachs were no longer shaking when they were armed for five kilometers three times a day, and the original shrill gunfire had long been accustomed to it, and the task of chopping wood every Sunday morning had become familiar.

It turns out that hardship can also become a habit.

By the end of October, all the offensive and individual tactics of the class, including the teaching of the four clubs and the common subjects, had been completely completed.

Entering November, this is the month that solemnly has spent in the teaching brigade closest to the actual battlefield.

Because every day the teaching brigade will be shrouded in the sound of all kinds of gunfire, all kinds of light weapons, including automatic rifles, light machine guns, 85 sniper rifles, heavy machine guns, anti-aircraft machine guns, 40 rocket launchers, recoilless guns, mortars, etc., will take turns at the shooting range.

In those days, after completing the physical training in the morning, when I returned to the row room after breakfast to sort out the equipment, I would definitely prepare two cotton balls, because it was likely that I would stay at or near the shooting range for half the day.

As a squad leader, all infantry light weapons must be learned, as must various methods of shooting, such as night fire from rifles and light machine guns, shooting at moving targets, shooting at pitch angles in the mountains, shooting at close range, shooting with gas masks, shooting at front and in depth from machine guns, shooting at intervals, shooting beyond the boundary, shooting at interstation, shooting at interstation, shooting at intervals, shooting at interstation, shooting at interstation, and so on......

The first squadron fired, and the second and third squadrons organized theoretical classes by instructors on the sidelines of the equipment field outside the shooting range, and memorized various theories and various tables by rote -- the correction table for high and low firing angles, the calculation table for hits, and the killing table......

There are also various correction formulas, all of which are now crammed into the minds of every student.

The instructor also often waved the chalk head in his hand to warn that during the graduation exam, these were written as theoretical knowledge, and he couldn't pass the test, in the words of the instructor - "Don't you practice for half a year, and finally you can't get the graduation appraisal form, so you go back to your company and cry!" ”

In this highly tense atmosphere, in the days when I still felt my brain buzzing even when I stuffed two balls of cotton every day, I survived solemnly day by day.

Finally, one day in late November, when all the students of the third squadron stood in front of the canteen with a yellow rice basin and waited for the meal, the squadron leader Zhou Huping announced a blockbuster news: "Two days later, the graduation assessment, these three days, in addition to the morning exercise, the rest of the time can go back to the row room to recite the theoretical knowledge of each subject and the teaching plan of the four sessions, three days later, the assessment is divided into two days, the first day of the theoretical written test in the morning, the afternoon of the four will be teaching assessment; On the second day, the common subjects and shooting assessment were conducted in the morning, and the tactical command assessment was conducted in the afternoon. ”

The news was thrown into the crowd like a grenade, and it exploded.

After half a year, I am finally about to graduate.
