　　Zang Yujiao, born in 1998, is a squad leader of a female test platoon of a certain brigade of the Rocket Army.

The predecessor of her platoon was the first women's testing team in the army.

In the 9 years since their establishment, they have won the collective second-class merit once and collective third-class merit three times, and were named the "National March 8th Red Flag Collective" and "National Women's Civilization Post."

　　As the "medical examiner" of the missile, Zang Yujiao and his comrades in arms have to root deep in the mountains all year round.

　　"From the first time I saw the missile launch scene, I fell in love with it." Zang Yujiao said, when the missile rose into the sky under the support of the orange tail flame, she felt that "youth is worth it."

　　What moved her also was that when the wind was strong, the party members risked protecting the tent; when the position was short of water, the party members stood back with water...

　　"Under difficult circumstances, the character of the party members as pioneers and leading the charge infects me. I must follow the party members." In the first two years after enlisting in the army, Zang Yujiao wrote two applications for joining the party.

　　From "seeing how party members do" to consciously "learning how party members do", Zang Yujiao has gradually grown into a tenacious fighter in the process of loving the party and following the party.

　　In 2019, as the only soldier in the women's test platoon selected for the National Day parade female team, Zang Yujiao came to the parade village for training.

　　On the training ground, Zang Yujiao's eyes were red with the banner of the honorable troops displayed by the banner team.

She felt that it was precisely under the strong leadership of the Communist Party that countless revolutionary ancestors had thrown their heads and blood, and that they had today's happy life.

　　Once, the female soldier's team organized all party members to review the oath of joining the party.

Zang Yujiao, who was still a member of the regiment at that time, looked at the bright red party flag from a distance and silently read the party oath. The oath of "ready to sacrifice everything for the party and the people at any time" shocked the young soldier.

　　"At that time, I wish I could raise my right hand and report loudly to the party flag." Zang Yujiao said, she was determined to use the standards of party members to demand herself and strive to establish new merits.

　　In order to make the movements more standard, Zang Yujiao repeated training in front of the military mirror; in order to accurately maintain the distance from the previous player, in addition to practicing hard on the training ground, she also stared at the position of 1 meter 2 from the dormitory bed frame to find feeling.

During the training, Zang Yujiao was named a "training pacesetter" many times, and was honorably reviewed as the second platoon benchmark soldier of the female squadron.

　　The hardship of hard training and the honor of being reviewed further strengthened Zang Yujiao's determination to join the party. In her third party application, she stated that she was determined to be a party member who "can lead by example, help others, and work hard."

　　Zang Yujiao, who has achieved excellent personal annual military training scores for 5 consecutive years, has gradually grown into a squad leader.

　　"I want to bring everyone in the class into good soldiers, and build our class into a'sharp knife class'." Under the leadership of Zang Yujiao, the whole class won the collective third-class merit once, and the excellent rate of military training results. Has been above 80%.

　　Zhang Xiaoxing, the backbone of missile testing, was the first batch of recruits after Zang Yujiao became the squad leader.

She said: "What I learned from the monitor is excellent quality, exemplary leadership, and selfless dedication."

　　Zang Yujiao, an activist who joined the party, wrote when reporting to the party organization: “For missile soldiers, loving the missile means loving the motherland, and guarding the missile means protecting the people.”

　　On April 29, 2021, Zang Yujiao was accepted by the party organization as a reserve member of the Communist Party of China.

　　"This is a day I will always remember." Zang Yujiao said: "I must listen to the party and follow the party. I have trained hard skills and brought out a good class to ensure that the missiles we tested hit the target accurately."
