The most difficult and arduous places always have soldiers. They are often the ones who “go first, come back later” to overcome all the consequences caused by natural disasters, storms, floods, and fires. The presence of “Uncle Ho’s soldiers” has helped people feel more confident when facing natural disasters and storms and floods.
Provincial military officers and soldiers participated in cleaning up fallen trees caused by storm No. 3 on the central road of Ha Long city.
Recently, when storm No. 3 (Yagi) made landfall in Quang Ninh, officers and soldiers of the provincial Military Command were ordered to go. With the people, they never hesitated, were ready to go into the eye of the storm to help reinforce houses, protect property, and guide people in coping with the storm. After the storm, they were present to quickly overcome the consequences, clean up schools, houses, roads, etc. so that people could soon stabilize their lives.
Recalling the days of participating in the prevention of storm No. 3, Major Nguyen Van Canh, Deputy Commander of Regiment 244 (Provincial Military Command) still vividly remembers the scene of devastation on every road and street corner. Quang Ninh suffered widespread power outages and mobile phone signals were disrupted, making all communications very difficult. However, with the spirit of ensuring the safety of the people above all, he and his teammates proactively overcame information difficulties, closely monitoring the storm's developments to implement prevention measures.
Major Nguyen Van Canh shared: Ensuring the safety of the people is not only an administrative order, but also an order from the “heart” of every officer and soldier of the army. Regardless of day or night, officers and soldiers of Regiment 244 are always ready to mobilize to carry out rescue work when a situation arises.
