“The frequency of exams is not much different from preparing for the college entrance examination”

In the underwater battlefield, everything changes in an instant

For the officers and soldiers of a submarine unit in the Eastern Theater Navy

Behind the readiness to fight at any time

Is the daily rigorous training

Veteran Jia Yongguang said

To become a qualified submariner

You must endure the hardships of the environment

And also the hardships of learning

“Responsibility and duty push you to learn”

There is not a day without learning

There is not a day without training

This is the self-requirement of every officer and soldier in Jia Yongguang's team

Spending a lot of time on training

And spending little time with family

Is the norm for submariners

During an interview,

When Jia Yongguang mentioned

The brief moments spent with his son

He excitedly stepped out of the frame

The accumulated efforts over time

Have made the confidence in victory stronger

In a major exercise last year

The officers and soldiers of this submarine unit

Flexibly applied new tactics

Operated the submarine to continuously track blue force targets

Successfully launched multiple rounds of attacks

Leaving the blue force commanders in constant admiration
