Lin Yuanyang served as an instructor for three years, and the Jiuzhaigou Squadron was honored as a "Model Squadron" by the Forest Fire Bureau for three consecutive years.

  When the army was transformed in 2018, his father repeatedly urged Lin Yuanyang to resign and go home to help manage the business, but he finally chose to stay in the team.

Later, he had the opportunity to transfer back to Chengdu to work many times, but he resolutely chose to stay on the plateau to work.

  In the forest fire fighting in Lugu Town, Mianning County, Liangshan Prefecture, the detachment ordered Lin Yuanyang to lead the squadron to cross-regional reinforcements.

There was a fire in front of him and crowds behind him. Lin Yuanyang quickly led 12 commandos, risking being engulfed by the fire at any time. Set up three water pumps on a steep slope close to 70 degrees, fixed themselves on the tree trunk with ropes, launched a fierce attack on the fire wall close to 10 meters, and forcibly tore a hole in the fire head, opening a path for follow-up comrades to reinforce the fire and block the fire head The extremely important channel, after more than 3 hours of fierce fighting, the fire was successfully extinguished.

  On June 10, 2022, a 6.0-magnitude earthquake swarm occurred in Malkang City. He volunteered to join the advance team to scout the disaster situation for the team. Facing the heavy rain all the way, he climbed boulders, crossed dangerous slopes, and climbed over cliffs, "drawing" for the follow-up rescue team. A road map to the epicenter.

  "Lin Yuanyang is definitely a good firefighter at work, but he is not a good father at home. He is the father in the children's video." His wife often jokes with friends.

"Dad, why do you always say what you promised me?" "Dad, why can I only see you on my phone? Mom has to take care of my younger brother, and no one plays with me." "Dad, I miss you so much, Come back soon." Whenever he heard the eldest son crying and calling in the video, Lin Yuanyang could only touch his nose.

"Since you don't have time, my son and I will come to you." In the summer vacation of 2022, his wife brought two sons to work, and Lin Yuanyang was deeply ashamed of what his wife said.

After work every day, Lin Yuanyang took his son to play basketball, run, and eat in the cafeteria with his son. He said he wanted to make up for his love for his son.
