Compete to practice well, practice seriously

On the training ground of Regiment 335, banners and propaganda signs were brightly lit. The slogans “Sweat on the training ground, less blood on the battlefield”, “Overcome the sun, overcome the rain, practice enthusiastically”… seemed to add motivation for the new soldiers to practice enthusiastically. On the runway and internal concrete roads, the new soldiers diligently practiced the formation command, “March in step!”. “Look to the right and salute!”… The command words were loud and clear; the soldiers’ movements were precise and beautiful.

Not far away, a new unit of soldiers was actively practicing shooting. The clicking sound of the hand pulling the bolt, the sound of the hammer hitting the firing pin, combined with the commander's command, made the atmosphere on the training ground more exciting. Talking to us, Private Duong Phuc Hieu, a soldier of Platoon 11, Company 4, Battalion 4 confidently shared: "This phase is about to end the test of 3 explosive subjects, so we have to practice at high intensity. Although it is difficult and tiring, I promise to strive, practice, and finish the test of all subjects, especially the 3 explosive subjects, with the highest results."

At Battalion 3, Regiment 1, watching the DKZ gunners, Co82 Battery, 12.7mm, B40 firepower... practicing aiming and shooting at targets, we saw that the soldiers' movements were quick, precise, well-coordinated, and rhythmic. Major Nguyen Tuan Anh, Battalion Commander of Battalion 3 shared: "Assigned the task of being on duty for the Regiment; besides maintaining the unit's strict compliance with combat readiness regulations, we focus on training soldiers to skillfully use and master the weapons and equipment in the establishment; regularly practice and master combat readiness plans, ensuring that soldiers are always ready to receive and complete assigned tasks well, not being passive or surprised in any situation".

Not only in Regiment 335 and Regiment 1, but also in agencies and units in Division 324, wherever we went, we witnessed the exciting competitive atmosphere. According to Lieutenant Colonel Pham Le Tuan, Deputy Division Commander, Chief of Staff of Division 324, in order to build the determination of officers and soldiers to compete to complete training tasks well and be ready for combat, the Division focused on organizing education, thoroughly grasping training orders and plans; launching competitive movements with specific contents and targets, all groups and individuals have a commitment to implement. At the same time, continuing to innovate and comprehensively improve the quality of training for subjects according to the motto "Basic, practical, solid", focusing on synchronous and specialized training; promoting activities on the training ground, military games, creating an exciting competitive atmosphere.

Along with that, the unit has invested in consolidating the training grounds, training grounds, and training tool models. Encouraging and encouraging officers and soldiers to actively research initiatives and improve techniques to improve training quality.
