Enlisting after the Lunar New Year 2025, soldiers go through the rookie stage, with 3 months of hard training. From a young man, they become soldiers, equipped with basic knowledge of politics , military, logistics, and technology; living in a healthy, united, democratic, disciplined, and disciplined collective environment. At the end of the oath-taking ceremony for new soldiers, they can proudly enter the next stage of their soldier journey.
In response to the requirements and tasks of building a revolutionary, disciplined, elite, and modern army, the work of selecting and calling citizens to join the army has been implemented with attention by the local military service councils. The quality of this work is better year after year. By 2025, 100% of young people joining the army in the province will have a clear political background and good health; the percentage of union members and party members will be absolute; the cultural level will be relatively equal (university, college, and secondary school account for 11.9%).
Every year, the training of new soldiers takes place during the transition from spring to summer, the weather changes continuously, becoming increasingly harsh, significantly affecting the health of soldiers and the results of training. The elite young men who were once bewildered when they put on their luggage to perform their duty are now covered in tan all over their bodies, have basic awareness, act steadily, and have formed the personality, posture, and style of a soldier. All know how to act according to orders, voluntarily comply with military discipline and the laws of the State; know how to use the weapons and equipment in the establishment to be ready to carry out assigned tasks; understand techniques and tactics, and are qualified to be assigned to units in the armed forces.
“This is just the first step of getting acquainted. Next, you will have the opportunity to study, practice and mature even more in the new unit, with increasingly demanding tasks. Comrades who wish will be selected and given the opportunity to review and take exams to enter specialized schools, and have the opportunity to study and serve long-term in the army. Regardless of their position or location, I believe that today's new soldiers will continue to unite, strive to overcome difficulties and rise up, ready to receive and complete assigned tasks in all situations" - Colonel Thach Thanh Tu, Commander of the Provincial Military Command encouraged.
The night before the oath-taking day, many soldiers were in a state of excitement similar to the time they were preparing to join the army. To have a complete, proper, and solemn ceremony, soldiers were trained for many consecutive days. Each person had a separate task, a different important piece in the ceremony, together creating a sacred moment for soldiers who had just entered the army for 3 months.
To be eligible to attend the oath-taking ceremony for new soldiers, Nguyen Chi Di and his teammates in the Training and Mobility Battalion (Provincial Border Guard) had to complete 68 hours of politicaleducation ; 132 hours of infantry combat techniques training; 98 hours of combined arms tactics training; 52 hours of training in regulations and regular construction; 48 hours of physical training; 14 hours of logistics training; 8 hours of technical training. “I have mastered the techniques of shooting, fighting explosives, throwing grenades, swimming breaststroke... These are important, basic skills of a soldier, which have been continuously reviewed over the past 3 months. I am proud that I have completed this stage well,” Di expressed.
Unlike other forces (who are assigned to new units after the oath-taking ceremony), newly enlisted soldiers in the Border Guard continue to receive specialized training in law and border work for 1.5 months according to the program of the Border Guard General Staff. This is the special luggage of the green-uniformed soldier. When the training course ends, the soldiers return to their new units to receive their duties, contributing to the successful completion of the task of protecting the national border.
“June marks the Traditional Day of the Provincial Border Guard after nearly 50 years of establishment, fighting and growing up. Recently, the Provincial Border Guard Command and a number of individuals were honored to receive the Second Class Military Exploit Medal from the President of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam for their outstanding achievements in performing tasks on the border line. Therefore, we request that new soldiers continue to make efforts to study, strictly follow military discipline and unit regulations, and be worthy of the heroic tradition of the Border Guard,” emphasized Colonel Tran Quoc Khanh, Commander of the Provincial Border Guard.
“When I was chosen to represent the new soldiers to take the oath before the Victory Flag, I was very honored and proud. This will be an unforgettable memory in my military career. I also clearly determined that the upcoming mission will be full of hardships and challenges, but it is also the responsibility of a citizen towards the Fatherland. Therefore, I will constantly learn and practice to improve my political qualities, contributing with the unit to excellently complete all tasks” - Tran Minh Khang (Brigade 416, Military Region 9) determined.
The oath-taking ceremony is a turning point marking an important event in the military environment of each new soldier. Under the bright sunshine of June, young soldiers, both in age and in age, simultaneously swore 10 honorable oaths. Among them, is the sacred promise to sacrifice everything for the Fatherland; to complete every mission, overcome every difficulty, defeat every enemy; to uphold the good qualities and the tradition of determination to fight and win of the People's Army... They will turn those steadfast oaths into concrete actions in their youthful years of dedication to the country, to their homeland.
