"The Strength of the Motherland, the Strength of the People's Navy, I Feel It!"
“This medical assistance
made me truly feel the deep affection of the military and civilians working together,
like fish and water……”
Recently, in a certain sea area of the Gulf of Aden,
a letter of thanks from the merchant ship “Zhongda Men”
conveyed warmth and emotion.
▲ Thank you letter
Not long ago,
the 49th escort task force of the Chinese Navy,
while on a convoy mission,
received a distress email from the escorted merchant ship “Zhongda Men.”
Captain Yang Huairong accidentally injured his finger while working.
The medical conditions on the merchant ship were limited,
making it impossible to provide effective treatment,
so they sought medical assistance from the escort task force.
▲ The small boat goes out to treat the injured
▲ Treating the injured
Upon learning of this situation,
the task force immediately organized a remote consultation.
After diagnosis, the patient's wound was continuously swollen and festering.
If timely and effective treatment was not provided,
it could easily evolve into limb gangrene,
even leading to amputation or shock risks.
After assessment, the task force decided to dispatch the Luomahu ship for treatment.
▲ Military doctor inquiring about the injured
▲ Providing diagnosis and treatment for the injured
“Prepare to lower the small boat!”
After the Luomahu ship arrived at the designated sea area,
the patient was transferred to the ship's medical rescue station.
Debridement, wound disinfection, sterile dressing……
The medical staff quickly carried out professional treatment.
The patient's condition was effectively controlled.
Subsequently, the medical staff carefully explained the follow-up care and rehabilitation matters
and provided necessary anti-inflammatory and pain relief medications.
The patient was safely transferred back to the merchant ship.

▲ Crew of the “Zhongda Men” waving to the task force personnel
“The strength of the motherland, the strength of the People's Navy,
I felt it!”
Yang Huairong expressed his gratitude excitedly.
At the moment of parting,
the crew of the “Zhongda Men” raised the five-star red flag
and unfurled a banner reading,
“Salute to the Navy, Forever Love China.”
The radiant smiles on everyone's faces
shone brightly in the sunlight.
