第七十八集团军某旅坚持以董存瑞事迹培育官兵血性胆气—— 赓续英雄血脉 争当英模传人 ■胡 玺 李旭阳 “您最近身体可好?我们一直挂念您,也很思念老班长……”5月25日,第78集团军某旅营区内,“董存瑞班”班长胡海龙通过视频连线,代表全连官兵向董存瑞烈士的妹妹董存梅致以诚挚问候。屏幕这端,官兵在董存瑞烈士雕像前整齐列队;屏幕那头,董存梅老人感动不已,勉励官兵再立新功。 今年是董存瑞烈士牺牲78周年。1948年5月25日,董存瑞所在部队向敌阵地发起攻击,突遭敌桥型暗堡火力封锁。董存瑞向连长请战:“我是共产党员,请准许我去!”得到批准后,董存瑞毅然抱起炸药包,冲向敌军暗堡。前进中,他左腿负伤,仍然顽强地冲至桥下。可桥形暗堡距地面超过身高,暗堡两头又无法放置炸药包。危急时刻,董存瑞用左手托起炸药包,右手猛地拉着了导火索,高喊:“为了新中国,前进!”硝烟弥漫,暗堡炸毁,部队成功突击。董存瑞用生命开辟了一条胜战通道,而自己的生命却永远定格在了19岁……董存瑞牺牲后,部队追认他为战斗英雄、模范共产党员,将他生前所在班命名为“董存瑞班”。 “我们把培育官兵血性胆气作为基础工程来抓,常态开展‘学习英模精神、争当英模传人’活动,不断强化官兵战斗意志、战斗精神。”该旅领导介绍,新干部、新兵来到“董存瑞班”所在连队后,参加的第一项活动是参观连队荣誉室,学唱的第一首歌是《代代高呼董存瑞》,观看的第一部影片是《董存瑞》;“董存瑞班”保留着老班长的床铺,官兵每日整理,连队点名点到“董存瑞”的名字,全连官兵一同答“到”;旅里常态开展“董存瑞杯”军事专业比武,引导官兵争做董存瑞式的钢铁战士。 连日来,该旅结合任务实际开展一系列纪念活动。营区内,随着指挥员一声口令,官兵集体默哀,缅怀董存瑞,感悟初心使命;祖国北疆铁路线上,一场以“我心中的老班长”为主题的强军故事会在任务间隙展开,官兵结合岗位实际,分享学习董存瑞事迹的心得感悟;西北戈壁,官兵在野外驻训点列队向烈士致敬,“当兵就当‘董存瑞’”的口号响彻云霄…… 78载斗转星移,英雄精神历久弥新。前不久,该旅抽组兵力奔赴陌生地域执行某新型火炮试验任务。出征前,任务官兵面向董存瑞雕像庄严宣誓。抵达目标地域后,官兵昼夜攻坚,潜心钻研新装备性能、反复打磨战法,攻克多项技术难题,圆满完成装备试验任务。

Summary

Machine summary

On May 25, a brigade of the 78th Group Army marked the 78th anniversary of Dong Cunrui's death with garrison ceremonies, a video call to his surviving sister Dong Cunmei, field storytelling sessions along a northern frontier railway line, and a tribute formation at a Gobi Desert training site, all framed around cultivating 血性胆气 (martial courage and fighting spirit). The article also reports that the brigade recently deployed personnel to an undisclosed location to conduct a trial mission for a new type of artillery piece, with the oath ceremony before departure used to tie the equipment trial to the hero-unit tradition. This is standard political work content built around a named heroic-unit lineage; its value is as a record of how the 78th Group Army brigade frames combat motivation and unit identity for junior personnel, not as evidence of a capability shift—though the passing reference to a new artillery trial raises the question of which system and what stage of fielding, neither of which the article specifies.
