This year marks the 75th anniversary of the founding of the People's Air Force. Xinhua News Agency reporters will take you to the "Air Force Test Range Nest", the birthplace of the "Desert Arrow Spirit", to review the history of the revolutionary predecessors' arduous entrepreneurship, appreciate their original aspirations and mission, and draw strength from their progress.
Since its establishment, generations of officers and soldiers have kept their hearts and souls firmly rooted in the Gobi Desert, determined to strengthen the army, and dedicated their youth, blood and even their lives to the cause of national defense. They built a comprehensive test range in the desolate Gobi Desert, and gradually formed a unique glorious tradition and fine style in the course of more than 60 years of development, which is embodied in the "Desert Arrow Spirit" with "loyalty to the country, independent innovation, scientific and pragmatic, and hard work" as the core elements.
Following the footsteps of their predecessors, the new generation of base officers and soldiers worked hard and struggled unremittingly, and a large number of outstanding officers and soldiers emerged: Wu Ningbo, the youngest post-95 "Golden Helmet" winner in the Air Force, Deng Jianping, a scientific and technological cadre who devoted himself to solving technical problems, Li Fangbin, a mechanical technician who lifted the "War Eagle" to fly high, and An Taosheng, a guard squad leader who was persistent in breaking through himself and challenging his limits...
"Hard work, selfless dedication, fighting against the wind and sand, not afraid of the heat and cold, for the strength and security of the motherland..." The older generation of base officers and soldiers took root in the desert Gobi like poplars, singing the loudest songs in the most difficult times. Today, the new generation of base officers and soldiers have taken over the spiritual banner of their predecessors, sticking to their hearts and sincerity, continuing to sing and forge ahead on the road to strengthening the army, and composing their own new songs in the desert.
