We all came to the barracks with dreams, but how much do these so-called dreams have to do with a real soldier?
Soldiers are not a career to earn money, nor is it the threshold for you to fish in Yuelongmen, nor is it a place for you to waste your youth here.
Maybe you will find the answer to this question only if you have really experienced it.
"Why do you want to be a soldier?" Villagers asked me.
"Exercise and come back later to see who dares to bully me." The little friend who grew up streaking together did not hesitate to say, "That's it?" Are you out of your mind? Do you think too much? "
"It's okay, not just a few months, get through it and be happy. Just experience life and maybe be a special soldier. " Exercise and experience life, so I planted the seeds of joining the army.
"Why do you want to be a soldier?" My favorite grandma asked me.
I looked at my grandmother's pale face sadly. I knew she couldn't live without my grandson. He worried about me for two days. She was afraid that I would fight when I went to the army. She's afraid I won't see her if I don't go home after I go to the army. She was afraid that I would be beaten and scolded in the army.
I looked up and told my grandmother, "When grandpa was around, he always said that I was disobedient, useless, lazy and afraid of hardship. Grandpa is a veteran. Now I'm grown up and want to prove myself. I'm not afraid of suffering. If Grandpa can, so can I. " In this way, I firmly believe that the seeds of joining the army began to sprout.
"Why do you want to be a soldier?" My best college classmate asked me.
Put down the keyboard and mouse in my hand and glanced at the takeaway and messy dormitory next to me. I thought for a moment: "Change your life. Always living aimlessly, without goals, wasting money at home and wanting to be a soldier. "
I may be very tired, but I think maybe I can get rid of many bad habits and get a lot of exercise there, preferably flying planes and tanks, and maybe even become a general! "In this way, holding the general's dream, I filled out the application form for enlistment at the university.
"Why do you want to be a soldier?" Asked the man hanging in his heart.
"As a soldier! Bring back the sister that Song Joong Ki took away. " This banner explains my goal well. I think soldiers have the unique temperament of soldiers, which impressed many girls.
So I strengthened my belief in being a soldier, just to impress "her".
"Why do you want to be a soldier?" On the train leaving home, the comrades who joined the army together asked.
"College students are well paid to join the army and can be exempted from tuition after returning." I answered him so simply.
I know it is too late to regret. I don't want to find any more reasons to comfort myself. There is no turning arrow before opening the bow!
"Why do you want to be a soldier?" When I finished the first five kilometers, panting and looking at me close to tears, the monitor asked softly.
"Yes, why should I be a soldier?" Now tears and sweat are water that once entered my mind.
Why did I come here, because there are "five kilometers" to cure all diseases? Is it because there is a good brother who shares weal and woe? Is it because there are weapons and equipment outside that will never be touched? Or is there a special discipline to educate people?
Yes! I think I will get used to life in the army, because I know that laughing children are not bad luck!
"Why do you want to be a soldier?"
Once we would hesitate to answer: "Being a soldier is for exercise", "Being a soldier is for proving ourselves", "Being a soldier is for benefiting xx" and "Being a soldier is for experiencing life"
"Why do you want to be a soldier?"
Now we will firmly answer: "I am a soldier, I am here to defend my country!" " If you don't join the army, I won't. Who will defend the country! I am proud, I am a soldier! "
The army is not a nursery, a gymnasium, a school or a market. This is a place ready to fight at any time. Today, we are a real soldier, not just what we used to call "soldiers".
Being a soldier is to fight, and being a soldier is to win. Practice hard to kill the enemy. When the motherland and people need us, we will stand up without hesitation and shout: "I am here!" " "
