在强军征程上唱响青春之歌 ■张雨晴 “希望你们胸怀远大理想,矢志拼搏奋斗,带动广大青年把个人追求融入国家发展大局,立足各自岗位不断创造新业绩,在新征程上贡献青春力量。”在五四青年节到来之际,习主席给中国青年五四奖章暨新时代青年先锋奖获奖者代表回信,向全国各族青年致以节日祝贺并提出殷切期望。这是对青年的嘱托,也是对奋斗的号召。 火红的五月,青春的季节。广大青年官兵要认真学习贯彻习主席回信精神,大力弘扬五四精神,坚定理想、勇担使命,不负韶华、不懈奋斗,在强军征程上唱响青春之歌。 “国家的前途,民族的命运,人民的幸福,是当代中国青年必须和必将承担的重任。”对青年官兵来说,军营是挥洒青春、追逐梦想的舞台,青年官兵在这里经受磨砺,也在这里丰满羽翼;在这里扎根成长,也在这里展翅翱翔。强国建设要靠广大青年挺膺担当,强军事业呼唤青年官兵接力奔跑。但也要认识到,前进的道路不会一路坦途,青年官兵只有保持“初生牛犊不怕虎”的锐气,鼓起“越是艰险越向前”的拼劲,经风雨、见世面、长才干、壮筋骨,立鸿鹄志、做奋斗者,求真学问、练真本领,才能在奋斗中体验幸福的真谛,在拼搏中实现青春的价值。 家国安危事,青年肩上责。青年是时代最灵敏的晴雨表,时代的责任赋予青年,时代的光荣属于青年。历史上,时代每一次向前,都有青年的身影、都有青春的力量。长征出发时,红军作战部队的官兵平均年龄在20岁左右,师团级干部平均年龄不到25岁;抗战时期,大批青年从全国各地奔赴延安,加入抗战洪流……他们把信仰放在心中,把责任扛在肩上,不怕牺牲、无私奉献,立起了青年人胸怀理想、昂扬向上的榜样。今天,我们的生活条件好了,但青年人初心不能改、使命不能忘,必须勇敢挑起强国强军的担子,书写矢志强军的时代答卷。 唱响青春之歌,奋斗是最美的旋律。马克思曾深情形容,青春的光辉、理想的钥匙、生命的意义,乃至人类的生存发展,全部包含在两个字中——奋斗。毛泽东同志曾说,中国的青年运动有很好的革命传统,这个传统就是“永久奋斗”。在实现中国梦强军梦的征途上,广大青年官兵“生逢其时,也重任在肩”,在氧气稀薄的边防哨所,在远离大陆的海疆孤岛,在默默无闻的普通战位,一批批青年官兵不怕苦、不畏难,展现出青春无畏的风采,彰显出强军有我的担当。奋斗强军,使命召唤。广大青年官兵只有志存高远、脚踏实地,勇于创新、敢于担当,才能展现青春作为、彰显青春风采、贡献青春力量,在强军事业中绽放青春梦想。 军队是要打仗的,军人的最高奉献是打赢,青春的壮美诗行是胜战。为强军事业奋斗,重在精武强能,锤炼能打仗、打胜仗的过硬本领。这要求广大青年官兵强化战斗队意识、树立战斗力标准、当好战斗员角色,努力把爱党之心、报国之情和强军之志,体现在练兵备战、精武强能的实际行动中,落实到敢打必胜、克敌制胜的过硬本领上,用实际行动奏响强军胜战的青春之歌。

Summary

Machine summary

A PLA political education article published around May Fourth Youth Day calls on young officers and soldiers to internalize Xi Jinping's recent reply to youth award recipients, frame personal ambition within national military strengthening, and prioritize combat readiness and warfighting skill development. The piece is routine ideological mobilization content—drawing on standard CCP historical references to the Long March and Yan'an—and contains no new operational, organizational, or doctrinal information. It is useful only as a data point on the continuity of PLA political work messaging linking Xi's personal directives to unit-level ideological conditioning.
