"Military King" Double Happiness: Son and Apprentice Both Admitted to Military Academy!

In a sea of white waves, two generations dedicated to the country

Recently, a certain observation station of the Southern Theater Command Navy

First Sergeant Wang Longjiao

Received the joyful news that his son Wang Chen

Was admitted to the Naval Engineering University

▲ Wang Chen shows his admission notice to his parents

"Over the years, I have hardly had time to accompany him

The child worked hard to get into the military academy

I am both proud of him and feel a bit guilty"

Wang Longjiao has long been stationed on high mountains and islands

Devoting most of his time to coastal defense

There is very little time spent with family

This year during the Spring Festival

He still stood firm at his post

Through the People's Navy new media platform

He sent a touching family letter to his family

Looking at his son, who has already grown up and become successful

Recalling the bits and pieces of the past

Wang Longjiao felt a mix of emotions

▲ Wang Chen's military academy admission notice

Having served for nearly thirty years

Wang Longjiao is undoubtedly a "soldier king"

He is a well-known "technical expert" in his unit

He has been awarded third-class merit three times

And received personal commendations ten times

He was recognized by the Southern Theater Command Navy

As an "advanced individual in combat readiness"

▲ Wang Longjiao at his post

After the intense college entrance examination

Wang Longjiao's wife took Wang Chen

To a long-awaited family reunion

The family of three rarely gathered

Wang Longjiao used his break time

To become a "dedicated coach"

Guiding his son in physical training

▲ Wang Longjiao training with Wang Chen

"Look, this is the sea that Dad protects

In the future, it will be your turn to guard it"

Wang Longjiao took his son to his post

Combining his personal experiences

To impart knowledge and methods to his son

Discussing the heavy responsibilities of a soldier

▲ Wang Longjiao and Wang Chen observing from the camp

Applying to military school has been Wang Chen's dream since childhood

The image of his father guarding the sea

Is deeply etched in his heart

His mother, with her understanding and support

Silently holds up their small family

The silent dedication and commitment of his parents

Have nurtured the seed of serving the country in their child

▲ The Wang family strolling in the camp

Good things come in pairs

Corporal Zhu Xuanxin

Since arriving at the observation station in March 2024

Has been guided by Wang Longjiao

Who has generously shared his training knowledge

Helping him solidify his professional foundation

In work, he is strict yet caring

Teaching him to fulfill his duties

In life, he provides thoughtful guidance

Encouraging him to apply to military school

▲ Wang Longjiao providing professional guidance to Zhu Xuanxin

With the master's teachings, the apprentice does not disappoint

This year, Zhu Xuanxin participated in the military examination

Successfully gaining admission to the Naval Submarine Academy

From the island post to the halls of the military academy

The stage for growth is broader

And the ideals and beliefs are stronger

▲ Wang Longjiao having a heart-to-heart with his comrades

Let us wish Wang Chen and Zhu Xuanxin

To write a new chapter of youth along the vast sea

And also applaud the bond between father and son, and between mentor and apprentice!
