In the dictionary of submarine soldiers, 'deep blue' is a poetic word. Every deep dive, Ma Xiaohui, a rudder signal technician and first-class sergeant at a certain submarine base in the navy, thinks about his own "deep blue philosophy" as a submarine soldier. In the eyes of young submarine soldiers, the "older generation" of technicians like Ma Xiaohui can be called "deep blue pioneers": in their hands, domestically produced new submarines first entered the ocean; Under their pen, various professional operating procedures and training materials were successively issued; Behind them, generations of submarine soldiers who taught grew into technical backbone. In recent years, against the backdrop of the transformation and development of the navy, with the rapid entry and exit of crew members and the iterative upgrading of equipment, a fleet of crew members growing with new equipment is undergoing unprecedented tests, and various variables are causing fluctuations in the "system stability" of the crew members. In this context, Ma Xiaohui's thinking shifted from individual value to collective inheritance - he deeply understands that the submarine soldiers' continuous pursuit of "deep blue" is never a trajectory of individual breakthrough, but a collective assault. The repeated voyages made him feel more and more at ease: Liu Xianghe, the rudder soldier, completed his first sea training in just one month; Crew member Chai Guizhou obtained his job qualification certificate after six months of job transfer; Young cadre Huang Gu achieved a ranking in his first martial arts competition... Through the excellent replacement of old and new, and the repeated cooperation of old and new, he gradually approached the answer in his heart while feeling the pulse of the times. Another morning, with a huge white foam in full bloom on the blue sea, the submarine's body rose again with the sunrise. Standing on the bridge, Ma Xiaohui looked down upon this sea area with a myriad of thoughts. If we do more and run longer, the submarine industry will move forward faster, better, and more stably. This is not only a challenge, but also a responsibility. ”Ma Xiaohui confirmed that this is an extension of the submarine's trajectory. Extension of Ability - When the "back wave" begins to push the "front wave", we cannot simply follow the teaching method of the master taking apprentices. We must boldly innovate. Corporal Lei Qijun did not expect that this day would come so early and so urgently. In a certain sea area, submarines are operating covertly, and a weapon firing test is about to begin. However, as the launch window approached, the submarine experienced a sudden power failure. 30 minutes is reserved for the professional class to troubleshoot. If the malfunction is not resolved on time, the task can only be suspended by requesting approval from the higher-level command center. First level sergeant Wang Xingjun was entrusted with the task in a critical situation, but after inspecting the equipment on site, he boldly decided to let Private Lei Qijun lead the team to handle it first. Give you 20 minutes, no, I'll go up again! ”The danger was ahead and the task was urgent. This command full of trust ignited Lei Qijun's confidence and fighting spirit. After hard work, the malfunction was successfully resolved. The test of growth may seem to be within a single step, but in reality, there are traces to follow. As early as the beginning of being assigned to the professional class, Wang Xingjun tailored a growth path for everyone: one month on the boat to obtain job qualifications, the first year to represent the unit in base competitions, and to adjust and rotate combat positions based on the actual tasks... In less than three years, the class members continuously accumulated and enriched their "weapon library" and "skill library". Back then, we couldn't even understand tides. Nowadays, many crew members can speak fluently about tides, currents, and astronomical positioning at the beginning of their deployment. ”Watching the young crew members grow up and develop, Wang Xingjun said. When the 'back wave' starts pushing the 'front wave', we can no longer simply follow the teaching method of the master taking apprentices, we must boldly innovate. ”Third level sergeant Wang Huan has a profound feeling about this and has decided to explore the use of "challenge based teaching" to rewrite tradition. One day, he appeared in front of everyone with a valve model and said, 'Whoever can assemble the valve back, even if they pass the level successfully.'. The classroom has become a 'game challenge', making everyone eager to try. Captain Zhang Yuyang, who has always been quiet and reserved, stepped onto the control panel for the first time. After several attempts, he independently assembled the complete valve component. Since then, Wang Huan decided to continue the "obstacle course teaching": finding different drawings, navigating mazes through pipeline systems... In his small classroom, every class is a challenge, every class has surprises, and the class members are gradually entering the stage and getting better. At the base, the reporter reviewed the "Backbone Teaching Plan" and found that each senior soldier had their own teaching method - in order to familiarize young crew members with submarine construction, some senior soldiers led young crew members to drill the bottom of the cabin, climb the water tank, inspect each pipeline, maintain each valve, and test each data item one by one; Some senior soldiers, in order to familiarize young crew members with professional operations, use the teaching method of "video+model" to "break down and crush" difficult problems... Recently, Zhang Yuyang went to work as a substitute for other crew members and successfully completed the task. Wang Huan, who was standing at the dock to greet him, patted his shoulder and said, "Well done, you are worthy of being the soldier I led!" Deep Blue hardened and advanced through the waves. The growth trajectory of generations of submarine soldiers is a symphony of youth in the journey of building a strong military in the new era. The extension of temperament - the winning code, hidden deep in the precise positioning of each item, condensed in the refined standards of each action, precipitated in the faithful practice of each regulation. As night falls, sporadic knocking sounds can be heard from the submarine bridge. Raising the mast, removing rust, and applying grease, communication technician Sun Meitao and the crew were busy maintaining the equipment. On the victorious day after completing dozens of day and night underwater missions, Sun Meitao led everyone to "stubbornly" persist in their work and once again became the last group to leave the ship. In Sun Meitao's view, "returning home" is never the end point: equipment must be restored to its original state before leaving the post, equipment must meet standards before landing, and only after troubleshooting can rest be allowed. This is an iron law engraved in his career. And these requirements have also been incorporated into the "Regulations on the Management of Crew Work and Life" by the crew team system. Standing Committee member Zhan, who was newly assigned to the crew, had doubts about this regulation - from bed making to tool placement, from item positioning to behavioral norms, every detail of work and life must be transformed into military standards: hangers must face inward, shoe tips must face outward; To open and close doors and windows, first press the handle and then gently open and close them; The placement of the mop and cloth was precise to centimeters, and the yellow line markings on the ground were as accurate as navigation scales... until one incident occurred, dispelling his doubts. During a mission, the submarine entered a stage of close combat with the opponent in terms of attack and defense. Suddenly, there was a sound coming from the rear cabin, and a huge noise disturbance was displayed on the sonar monitoring screen. Is it a device malfunction or a collision? The commander rushed straight to the command room, ready to sound the battle alarm. The truth of the matter was revealed only after the power cabin reported it in a timely manner - the spare parts box was not properly secured after use and fell, causing a sound. The accident of the "Deep Sea Thunder" once disrupted the established tactics of the submarine and made the crew deeply understand the cruel test of the "zero error" standard: underwater, "small problems" must be "done big", and meticulous style and excellent professional skills are equally important. Based on reflection and summary, senior soldiers take the lead in implementing and continuously improving the "Regulations on the Management of Crew Work and Life" in the crew team. As regulations continue to be enforced, it is gradually discovered that the crew members who often make mistakes have also engraved discipline rules from paper into their hearts and put them into practice day after day. Everyone is well aware that each rule in this regulation condenses the winning password of "one second ahead of the enemy" and "one step ahead of the enemy", and hides these passwords in the precise positioning of each item, condensed in the refinement standards of each action, and deposited in the faithful practice of each rule. During an emergency pull, the submarine collided with the "enemy" aircraft on a narrow path. As the battle alarm sounded, all the rest crew members quickly walked out of the living quarters, orderly and fully equipped. Less than half of the planned time, the entire ship has entered the first level combat deployment. Adjusting course, increasing depth, and maneuvering to avoid, the submarine effectively implements a series of tactical actions in a silent game before the "enemy" is detected, completing avoidance maneuvers. It is these seemingly strict regulations that keep submarines in a ready and combat ready state at all times, and it is also the drivers of these deep-sea swords who, with their precision day after day, write the winning answer sheet for the new era of submarine troops. The extension of the spirit - transformation is silent, hidden in the mundane days without attention, but always loaded with the strength of words and actions, like the pressure hull of a submarine sailing through the wind and waves, the submarine returns to its homeport. Auxiliary soldier Liu Chang immediately received his phone and reported his safety to his family. Although the task went smoothly, Liu Chang never mentioned the hardships behind it to his family. The pain of finally falling asleep and being awakened, the test of insomnia, and the ulcers caused by a disrupted biological clock... These unbearable moments were packed into his triumphant bag, witnessing his own growth. Comrades recalled that Liu Chang, who had just taken up the battlefield, was the sunny young man in his circle of friends who was passionate about sports and often updated on updates. But after experiencing the task of working in a deep-sea confined space, Liu Chang has completed his transformation from a "social expert" to a "deep-sea diver". I saw the shadow of class monitor Zhang Qiang on him. ”When it comes to Liu Chang's changes, everyone made an analogy: "If a closed submarine is a melting pot, Zhang Qiang is an excellent 'blacksmith' who refined Liu Chang into steel in the most difficult battle position of the entire ship." Recalling the scene of his first time on board, Liu Chang felt like "riding a roller coaster. The excitement continued to rise as I saw the sea for the first time and came into contact with a submarine for the first time. However, as his gaze passed through the submarine's heavy watertight doors, what caught his eye were the mottled pipelines amidst the mechanical roar. This is our battlefield. ”Zhang Qiang's words made Liu Chang feel that the fate of the submarine was closely connected to him: guarding the valve to polish and remove rust in the roaring mechanical noise and rushing hot air became his first task. Liu Chang's transformation is silent, hidden in the mundane days when no one cares, yet always loaded with the strength of words and actions, like the pressure resistant hull of a submarine - the still water flows deep but the strength penetrates thousands of tons. How many late nights did Zhang Qiang take Liu Chang to study majors and painting systems in the study room; On most weekends, Zhang Qiang takes Liu Chang aboard the boat, feeling the smell of paint all over the cabin and checking the status of the pipelines. Day after day, under the patient guidance of Zhang Qiang, Liu Chang developed the temperament of a submarine soldier, introverted and resilient. Before a mission, if the power system suddenly shuts down and the fault is not resolved or the power is not restored, the submarine cannot set sail. Seeing this, Liu Chang volunteered to participate in the troubleshooting and went straight into the narrow side hole. Liu Chang, who was immersed in oily water, searched and checked one by one under the light of the flashlight. By the time the fault was identified, nearly an hour had passed and half of his body had been stained black with oil, which had not faded for several days in a row. In the confined space of the deep sea, the senior soldiers of the crew demonstrated their hands-on philosophy of leading troops through their actions - Sergeant Lucius, the first level sergeant, continuously monitored and recorded parameter changes 24 hours a day, analyzed and found the cause of faults, and ultimately successfully eliminated them; Sergeant Huang Nannan, a first-class sergeant, jumped into waist deep water to continuously troubleshoot when there was a leak in the tail shaft all night long; Sergeant Major Li Changwen, in order to investigate the cause of a valve malfunction, worked continuously underwater for more than 10 hours... "I want to grow into a soldier like them! ”At the end of the interview, Liu Chang's words were resounding and powerful. Underneath Deep Blue, taking over the baton from their predecessors, the new generation of submarine soldiers are refining into steel in the furnace built by senior soldiers, just like their spirit of deep diving and pursuing dreams, Deep Blue continues to thrive with the pulse of the deep sea.
