Today, many years later, when I have nothing to do, I recall those moments when I joined the army at the end of 2008. There is still some aftertaste and joy in my heart.
Although I had only served in the special forces in the new town of Nan 'an Province in Fujian Province for four months, now that I was alone in a quiet corner, I thought about the process of joining the army, the days when I arrived in the army, the tough training of the recruits, the patience and willpower of the three-kilometer run, and for the first time, I understood the true meaning of camaraderie.
It was the first time he learned about teamwork. It was the first time he knew that if one person made a mistake, the entire class or even the entire company would be punished. It was the first time he was nervous when he fired the Type 95 automatic rifle. It was the first time he was nervous when he threw a grenade.
The first time he was forced to sing in front of the entire company, the first time he had a heart-to-heart talk with the squad leader, the first time he failed the recruit company assessment, and the first time he knew that there was only shouting and reporting in the army.
The first time I wrote a new letter to my parents, the first time I slept at night, the class monitor covered me with a blanket, and the first time I made a mistake, even the chief came to talk to me.
It was the first time he knew what the purpose of being a soldier was, and the truth behind who the soldiers were fighting for. The first time he was in the new recruits 'company, he was in a sorry state when he had to gather in an emergency. It was the first time he made dumplings with his comrades in the company in the canteen.
It was the first time he felt the squad leader and his comrades gather together and say touching words about sharing life and death together. It was also the first time he cooked on the mountain outside.
The first time he ran in the 400-meter race, he was sore from failing the test. After the first run, his legs were sore and he couldn't even stand up. It was the first time he felt tired, and the first time he felt touched by his comrades 'concern.
Many, many, many first times gathered in my heart.
I really don't know how I survived the tough training in the army. I wanted to retire and go home for countless nights. I wanted to leave this place of suffering.
Now that I am an ordinary citizen, I have also taken off my military uniform.
Recalling the days in the army, there were hardships and tiredness, crying and laughing, sadness and happiness. There were countless days with such feelings. Now, I can only reminisce at home.
