The Memory of Military Training

The Memory of Military Training

  Military trainings are the beginning of studying in a new school. No matter in junior high school, high school or college, we all need to take part in the military training to help us come out of the holiday's pleasure and then focus on studying. Among many times of military trainings, my favorite one, the one that left a lasting impression on me was in high school.

  That summer, although we still missed the wonderful junior life, joyful and hard as if just yesterday. Summer vacation has passed quietly and what we need to meet is more difficult and more challenging living and learning - high school. The arrival of this day made me happy and tense.

  I stepped into the new school with a lot of luggage. There were a few familiar faces, such as the friends that came from the same junior high school but most were unfamiliar faces. Facing this new place and new people, a joy welled up in my mind suddenly. When I finished registering and said goodbye to my parents, the tense five day's independent military trainings began here. In the mobilization meeting, I was excited, because it makes people look more energetic, when I saw the standard army posture, but also realized that my instructors might require me to stand that way. At that time, I thought the training should be no problem, but when I came out of the stadium and under the hot sun, I deeply regretted that thought.

  Our instructor was not tall but stern. Our relaxed expression became nerves after instructor's first order, and he taught us strictly on our posture correction. Sometimes our actions were not correct, and as punishment, he let us stand under the strong sun which made the sweat sweated from our head to the back. Finally, after the morning training, we could have a rest, and everyone ran to the shade immediately to have some water. Our teacher stayed with us and took photos by using her camera. She talked to us from time to time and everyone was sitting under a tree, cheerful chatting, like a group of family, and also some people talked about a joke to amuse everyone happy.
