Chapter 48 Radar Maintenance
Perhaps, the development and breakthrough of many things require a process, and it is difficult to rush to achieve results...... So, it's necessary to persevere!
After a period of wandering, coupled with his unremitting efforts, Wang Linlin's off-plane training results finally led him far ahead of his comrades-in-arms. The result has been affirmed and praised by many parties, and I am also very happy.
In addition to being on duty for combat readiness, the rest of the company's life is also leisurely. On the one hand, Wang Linlin actively participated in various activities and labor, and on the other hand, he often borrowed some books from the company's library to read.
Because the Yutian County Mushroom Company cultivated the strains in the company, Wang Linlin was a little curious, and occasionally went there to take a look. There were two comrades who cultivated the fungus, and they were very friendly when they saw their comrades-in-arms going to visit. I saw that the doors and windows of the newspaper room were sealed with plastic sheets, that there were thermometers in the room, and that the temperature and humidity were high, and that there were many sealed glass vials with misty white mycelium inside......
In the blink of an eye, the "August 1" Army Day is coming.
On the morning of July 24, the Jiannan County condolence group came to the company;
On the morning of August 1, the Yutian County condolence group came to the company;
At the same time, the Fujian Provincial People's Government gave a white vest printed on each of the soldiers stationed in Fujian -- "Gift to the loveliest person.Fujian Provincial People's Government"
On August 18, the No. 1 radar where Wang Forest is located began "annual maintenance", and the maintenance time was set to end on the 24th. Because of the heavy task and tight time, the comrades-in-arms are always busy because they get up early and stay late, even at noon......
The work of radar maintenance is mainly divided into three parts:
First, dismantle and inspect the motor on the radar antenna. Dust removal, overhaul the circuit, then clean or replace the gears, then change the oil and butter...... The work was dirty and tiring, and people often had oil on their hands.
Second, the radar antenna dusting, rust removal and painting. There is no specific standard for this work, it all depends on the feelings of the parties. This kind of work is not only tiring, but also more careful. I only knew that many of my comrades-in-arms had blood blisters or injuries on their palms at that time......
The huge antenna network, like a curved cover, is put down on the antenna car during maintenance, and the edges on both sides fall to the ground slightly. Above and around the antenna are busy comrades-in-arms, each with a steel brush or iron sandpaper in hand, carefully removing dust and rust so that it can better put on its "new clothes".
After dust and rust removal, it is time to paint the antenna. Many people may think that painting is a simple matter; in fact, painting the radar antenna is a technical job! Because the radar antenna is mesh-shaped, the middle is empty, and only the steel wire needs to be sprayed, so the adjustment of the nozzle of the nozzle is very important...... Green paint, like fog, drifted on the antenna mount. It doesn't take a moment for the sprayed place to reflect a dazzling light in the sunlight.
Third, the machine maintenance in the workshop. This is the tail sweep of radar maintenance, the mechanics are responsible for the overhaul and maintenance of the machine, and the comrades are responsible for dust removal and cleaning, and at the same time cooperate with the work needs of the mechanics: either hand here and there, or run around......
After several days of maintenance, Wang Linlin and his comrades-in-arms in the two classes were dirty and tired, and the smell of paint was really unpleasant. In the last few days, he was always dizzy, his limbs were limp, and his back hurt...... Wherever he lay down, he could fall asleep immediately on the sandy ground of the position; and after waking up, he couldn't open his eyes and couldn't see anything clearly......
People, before they come into contact with each other, are strange and mysterious, but because of the day and night and the common labor, there is an intersection and emotion.
On the afternoon of August 27, Luo Zongsheng finished his study and was assigned to the company. When the two classmates-in-arms met, they were inevitably happy and had a long talk.
Wang Linlin asked about the situation in the recruit camp with concern, and the other party replied: "After you left, everyone studied and lived peacefully. But there are too few people left, and they seem too lonely and lonely compared to when you were there. After we finished our studies, we left the camp yesterday to join the company. Oh, and before we left, the camp had been handed over to a unit in the place......"
On September 12, Wang Forest passed the assessment with excellent results and was approved to work alone. The so-called solitary release means that a person can independently accept combat readiness tasks and has the ability to assume corresponding responsibilities. According to the usual practice, the work of new comrades-in-arms must be checked by veteran comrades before they are released separately, and if something goes wrong, it is the veteran who needs to take responsibility.
A recruit can be released alone as soon as possible, which is a kind of trust of the leader and a demonstration of personal ability!
In the middle of September, the climate and environment of Boulder Mountain are exceptionally good. In those days, Wang Linlin was also in a good mood. One day, he got up early, but saw—
In the early morning, the boulder mountain and the surrounding mountains, after a night of rain, look particularly fresh and beautiful, like a dignified girl: standing still.
The curtain of the rising sun had not yet been fully opened, the mountains were still covered with a faint veil of mist, and the east was only showing a long red color, and the blue sky constituted a perfect and pleasant scene.
Looking at the surrounding mountains: some are lush and green, like a sea of forests, some are shaped like bare and green grass, some are craggy and strange, and there are also three or two, seven or eight pines and cypresses, standing alone - but without losing their strong bones, they are tantamount to the embodiment of brave guards...... This is a picture of the morning song of the mountains that is even more beautiful than the painting.
On September 14, the instructor arranged for Wang Forest to participate in the writing of the company's blackboard newspaper. He was ashamed that his handwriting was too poor, so he remitted 16 yuan to the "Pang Zhonghua Calligraphy Correspondence Class".
On the 22nd, Wang Forest received a reply letter from the army's propaganda department. The letter spoke highly of him and was accompanied by two copies of the Military Correspondent's publication. It turned out that he had written a letter to the No. 3 commander on August 7, in which he introduced his feelings and determination after joining the company.
At noon on the 22nd, Wu Xinguo came to the company with the unit's tanker. Wang Linlin's meeting with him can be described as a mixture of joy and sorrow: I saw the two hugging and crying for a while, and smiling for a while......
Wu Xinguo said that he often went to various companies to transport oil, but the Boulder Mountain Company was the most difficult place. The other party was grateful and guilty, and repeatedly said words of thanks and sorry; in fact, Wang Linlin did not regret his behavior, but thought that it was very worthwhile! But you have to do it yourself, don't let your mother worry!"
After the oil was unloaded, the veteran who led the team repeatedly urged Wu Xinguo to get on the car and set off...... Looking at the distant vehicles, Wang Linlin's heart seemed to be hollowed out, with a sense of wood......
