This female soldier achieved first place in two competitions just four months after enlisting. What's going on?
The 74th Group Army's certain brigade
A female soldier has only been in service for four months
And has already won first place in two competitions
She is Shan Yuxin

Before joining the army
Shan Yuxin had already obtained
A master's degree from a "Double First Class" university in Shanghai
During her university years, she received multiple honors
But in her heart
She always harbored a dream of military service
In the first half of 2026, when the recruitment channel for female soldiers opened
Shan Yuxin signed up without hesitation
After going through physical examinations and political reviews
She finally received her enlistment notice

After joining the army, the high-intensity training
Made it difficult for Shan Yuxin to keep up at times
In her confusion
After visiting the brigade's honor room
She was deeply moved by the
Iron-blooded spirit of revolutionary predecessors
From then on
She engraved the words "never give up" into her bones
Enduring under the scorching sun
Facing challenges when exhausted
Breaking through limits time and again

In various competitions within the unit
Shan Yuxin bravely took the lead and achieved excellent results
In the party history knowledge competition
Her team won first place in the group category
In the joint subject competition,
She also won first place in the women's group
……
The tempering in the military camp
Has polished away her youthfulness and impatience
And has also cultivated steadiness and determination
Now
Her determined gaze and resilient temperament
Have become the growth medals bestowed upon her by the military camp

She said
“Youth can take on countless forms
The most moving is
Taking responsibility for the country and not wasting one's youth”
May this resilient and brave female soldier
Continue to ride the winds and waves, and grow in the camouflage military camp
