The military slogan is the scenery of the military camp and the spiritual scenery of the officers and soldiers
2025-05-30
With the changing times, some items in the camp have been eliminated, while others have been updated and replaced. Nevertheless, there are still many items stationed in the camp area, accompanying generations of officers and soldiers. Slogans are one of them. Most places where officers and soldiers engage in activities have slogans. For example, the cafeteria has "diligence, thrift, and hard work", the training ground has "unity, tension, seriousness, and liveliness", and the library has "knowledge is power" and so on. Many campsites have undergone renovation and construction, but the content of the slogans in these places has hardly changed. The slogans in the barracks, as an important component of military culture, have distinct characteristics of the times. Different eras have different main slogans. For a long time after the founding of New China, the shadow of war has not dissipated from people's hearts. Slogans such as "Be vigilant and defend the motherland", "If people do not offend me, I will not offend; if people offend me, I will offend" remind soldiers to be vigilant at all times, and be ready to eliminate all the enemies who invade with the fighting spirit of "one is not afraid of hardship, and the other is not afraid of death". During the period of reform and opening up, a thriving spring breeze swept across the country, ushering in economic and cultural development, and creating a new atmosphere on the training ground. The development of market economy is also impacting the camp. Soldiers are facing the test of revelry, and "carrying forward fine traditions and maintaining the true colors of the people's army" has become one of the themes of the camp slogan. Nowadays, the construction of the military is standing at a new historical starting point. Slogans such as "obeying the Party's command, being able to win battles, and having a good work style", "inheriting the red genes, and taking on the heavy responsibility of building a strong military", and "learning the ideology of building a strong military and doing the cause of building a strong military" reflect the guiding ideology of military construction in the new era. These slogans with the imprint of the times have accompanied the military through ups and downs, nourishing generations of soldiers while also outlining the spiritual outlook of soldiers from different eras. The content is changing, and the carrier of slogans is also changing. In the past, words were written on walls with lime water and paint, but later signs were made of wood and iron. Nowadays, spray painted slogans and lightbox slogans have entered the camp area. Correct fonts, bright colors, prominent positions, and stirring words make the camp more vibrant. There are also some special slogans in the camp. These special slogans will shine brightly during the enlistment of new recruits, the retirement of old soldiers, and some major events, creating a lively atmosphere in the camp. They changed their serious tone and became emotional and lively. The font has also changed from regular and stable bold and Song typeface to regular script, running script, and even handwritten handwriting of officers and soldiers. New recruits join the army, and slogans express the military's welcome and high expectations for their new comrades. "Warm welcome to new comrades," "Take the first step, walk the military road well," "Being a soldier without practicing martial arts is not fulfilling one's obligation, and not being skilled in martial arts is not a qualified soldier." When veterans retire, slogans show the deep emotions of soldiers. Some have expectations for veterans before leaving the team, such as' stay in the team for one minute, work well for sixty seconds', 'stay at ease, walk happily', 'keep your good suggestions and take away the good style of the army'; Some show respect for veterans, saying, 'Your footprints are in the camp, and your style is on the military flag.'; Some are expressions of deep affection towards veterans, 'Comrades and comrades are as close as brothers, the military camp will always be your home'; Some of these slogans are good wishes for veterans, such as' Have a smooth journey for veterans, and show great plans on the road of life '... Many of these slogans were written by officers and soldiers themselves. In order to write good slogans, many officers and soldiers have also developed good calligraphy skills. Different camps have common slogans that represent the same spirit and temperament of soldiers. Different camps also have different slogans, generally showcasing the characteristics of the camp and highlighting individuality. For example, the camp stationed on the islands and reefs has the slogan "The reefs are under my feet, and the motherland is in my heart"; The checkpoints at the border have slogans such as "Hold the steel gun tightly, guard the country's gate" and "One family cannot make ten thousand yuan"... The bits and pieces of military slogans gradually gather into the hearts of the officers and soldiers, forming changes in their thoughts, spirits, and souls. Slogans walk down from walls and paper, enter the hearts and actions of officers and soldiers, and ultimately become one of the driving forces for military construction. Slogans are not only a unique scenery in the military camp, but also a scenery in the hearts of officers and soldiers. (New Society)
