"Thank you for the'exclusive weather forecast'. Each company can accurately plan training based on this weather information!" Recently, a support team in the Western Theater Command received a letter of thanks from a border defense regiment of the Army.
Previously, this support team sent a key force to install comprehensive weather observation equipment for the border defense company of the regiment.
“The front line of border defense needs more accurate weather services. We need to provide them with timely and accurate weather information.” The leader of the security team introduced that most of the border defense company belonging to the border defense regiment is stationed in high mountains and valleys. Frequent occurrence, to a certain extent, affects the combat readiness training of officers and soldiers and the safety of patrols on duty.
To this end, they carried out in-depth "I do practical things for the masses" practical activities in the study and education of party history, and jointly developed plateau and alpine mountain meteorological forecast models and observation equipment in conjunction with local meteorological departments, relevant universities and scientific research institutions, and overcome border defense. First-line weather forecasting problems.
Not long ago, the comprehensive meteorological observation equipment was successfully developed.
Since the levy was not resolved, the security team officers and soldiers rushed to the front line of border defense non-stop with equipment for installation and commissioning.
Zhang Shuai, the deputy director of a certain business office of the security team, led the team members to the foot of the mountain where the company was located for more than 10 days.
Who knows, not far from the company, a sudden flood destroyed the roadbed.
The team members had to carry their piggybacks on their shoulders, and together with border officers and soldiers, they disassembled more than 10 pieces of equipment and transported them to the company in batches.
In order to find the best installation location for the equipment, they went out early and returned to survey observation points every day for more than half a month.
The installation work was carried out in an orderly manner, but the company station received continuous rainfall.
In order not to delay the construction period, the team members rolled up their cuffs, put on water pants, and installed equipment in the glacier.
"The installation and construction days are indeed very difficult, but we have to suffer a little bit so that our border comrades will suffer less!" Zhang Shuai said with emotion.
According to reports, since the beginning of the year, the support team has dispatched multiple service units to the front line to install comprehensive meteorological observation equipment, providing powerful meteorological services for officers and soldiers.
