After a long journey, we entered the Disaster Area. The scene on the scene shocked us. Some roads were damaged, houses collapsed, and some big trees fell down. It was a bit like the scene after a major earthquake. When we arrived at the assembly point, there were already many teams busy there. After a short rest, because the team's equipment was not particularly advanced at that time, we were assigned to cooperate with another team to carry out some support and logistical work, and occasionally involved in assisting in rescue work. We arrived at a collapsed building mission site and saw only a thin earth wall still standing there, while the other structures had long been flattened to the ground. There was already a rescue team working here. We were responsible for peripheral security and supply guarantees, and were divided into two groups. One group was responsible for on-site control by setting up a cordon, and the other group was responsible for lighting and supply management. The overall damage to this place is not that serious, because there are not many people living there, and most of the people in the rural areas have gone out to work. Moreover, most of the buildings are earthworks, not concrete ones. We heard from people around us that there seemed to be someone buried underneath. To speed up the rescue, we also selected several teammates from each group to help clear the rubble. But after two or three hours of work, no signs of buried people were found in the ruins, and the professional team Yili was unable to identify them. However, some documents about the owner of the house were found in the ruins. Afterwards, we evacuated the area. Later on, because we brought tools such as chainsaws and shovels, we mainly focused on clearing obstacles. For example, some fallen trees posed a safety hazard, some soil covered the small road, etc. Especially if we wanted to cut down big trees, we would cut the trees into pieces, and then arrange people to carry them and clear the dangerous area. In fact, when we went there, most of the rescue work had been completed or was nearing completion, so there were not too many tasks to perform. However, the content I checked on the Internet the night before was of no use at all. After a busy day, at night, everyone finished their meal and waited for the command center to assign tasks. Due to the participation of professional teams, the rescue progress seemed to be particularly efficient. The command center told us that there were basically not many needs, and then after discussion, it was decided to evacuate the team. On the way back, we passed an intersection where we saw many spontaneous people carrying bottles of mineral water and fruits. There were not many people but the distance stretched for a long time. They signaled the passing vehicles to stop and distributed the things in their hands to the people in the vehicles, and kept saying words of thanks. However, most of the vehicles did not stop, but just honked their horns when passing by. Further ahead, there was an old man who specialized in cooking. There was a big pot on the roadside, a simple awning, and a simple wooden table with various seasonings on it. Seeing this scene reminded me of the disaster relief scenes in the army before. It was so real, as if I was there again. I looked around and found that the comrades I had been with day and night had become my current teammates, and A Yu was no longer there. After a busy day, everyone felt exhausted and tired. Therefore, not long after returning, everyone fell asleep. They each looked for a comfortable place to take a rest. Some chose to sit on the hard cardboard boxes, while others used the mineral water bottles in their hands as makeshift pillows. When driving on the road, vehicles may occasionally encounter some bumpy roads. Every time this happened, everyone who was sleeping soundly would open their eyes slightly, take a bleary look, and after confirming that there was no danger, they would quickly fall back asleep and continue to sleep soundly. However, unlike others, I sat in the passenger seat, trying hard to stay awake and not fall asleep. After all, I have been in the army for a period of time, so I have some basic skills in resisting fatigue. Even though I have retired now, these basic skills are still deeply engraved in my body memory. The reason for doing this is, on the one hand, to prevent the driver from dozing off due to excessive fatigue, and on the other hand, to chat with him from time to time so as to relieve each other's physical and mental stress and sleepiness. The retreat was smooth. We arrived at Team Headquarters around 10:00 a.m. We dragged our tired bodies to move all the supplies back to the warehouse. After a brief summary, we each went home. The next day, I hurriedly asked my superiors, eager to know the latest situation in the Disaster Area. After receiving the call, my superior answered me with a smile and gave me a detailed introduction to the current situation of the Disaster Area and the progress of the rescue work. When I heard the news that the rescue work had been successfully completed, at that moment, it was as if a huge rock fell from my heart and I breathed a sigh of relief. Although we may not be directly involved in the front-line rescue operations in this mission, as a member of the entire team, we are always concerned about the people in the Disaster Area, praying silently for them, and always ready to contribute our own strength. Looking back on the tension and worry I've felt during this period of time, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief. This experience is undoubtedly a significant and important task for our team. It made us deeply realize the importance of unity, cooperation and rapid response, and also accumulated many valuable experiences and lessons. That night, all teammates who participated in the rescue mission gathered together to celebrate this milestone victory. We chose a lively hotpot restaurant, sat together, and the aroma of the steaming hotpot filled the air, making people salivate. Amidst laughter and joy, we began to share our true feelings at the time. Some teammates talked about their fear and helplessness in the face of disasters; some expressed their relief and emotion after seeing the disaster-stricken people being properly resettled; and some mentioned the tremendous power brought by mutual support and encouragement among team members. These sincere words not only brought us closer to each other, but also made us full of confidence and expectations for our future work. Through this communication, we also discovered our own shortcomings and gained a lot of inspiration for subsequent training. I believe that in the days ahead, we will continue to work hard to learn and grow, and meet every challenge with a more professional attitude.
