Starry Night Gathering, Sharpening the Sword in the Sky!
The world is silent, the war eagles are lined up
In the deep night, the officers and soldiers of a certain unit of the Eastern Theater Air Force
are full of fighting spirit
A midnight flight training closely aligned with real combat officially begins

Under the night sky
Support personnel gather overnight
With a precise, efficient, and meticulous style
They escort the flight training throughout
Addressing the challenges of night flight support
The airfield meticulously formulates support plans
Scientifically allocates support forces
Refines special handling procedures


As soon as the command is given
All support specialists quickly take their positions
Each performs their duties and closely cooperates
Fuel personnel quickly complete fuel supply
Communication personnel maintain constant vigilance
Precisely establish communication links
Ground personnel meticulously inspect the runway
Implement bird hazard prevention measures
Guard the takeoff and landing corridor of the war eagles
Guards stand ready
Strengthen patrol and control of the airfield
Build a solid safety barrier for the airport


Throughout the flight support mission
Each support unit has clear divisions of labor
Cooperate efficiently and follow up in a timely manner
Fully escort the war eagles as they sharpen their blades in the sky

The officers and soldiers of this unit, based on wartime conditions
Scientifically and normatively set training subjects
Conduct training rigorously and with difficulty
Further strengthen professional competence
Continuously solidify wartime support capabilities
The Air Force aviation troops are always ready for battle
