What is the oath of a soldier?

The military oath, also known as the oath of enlistment, is officially called the military oath in the Military Regulations. It refers to the words and vows when a citizen is approved to become a formal soldier after enlisting in the army, and stands at attention with his right hand clenched in front of the military flag or military emblem (the unit that awarded the military flag does not use the military emblem). Resolutely fulfilling one's sacred duty and glorious mission is a solemn promise and guarantee.

As early as the Red Army period, there was a written pledge to fulfill a military order. The earliest written military order of our army was 1933, which was formulated by the Revolutionary Military Commission of the Chinese Soviet Central Committee (the full name of the Revolutionary Military Commission of the People's Committee of the Chinese Soviet Central Executive Committee). It is called the "Oath of the Chinese Workers and Peasants Red Army" and contains five articles. The content is as follows:

1, we are the sons of workers and peasants, volunteered to be the Red Army, completed the glorious task entrusted to us by the Soviet Union, and fought to the end for the liberation of workers and peasants;

We are red fighters, so we should make sure that we and our comrades absolutely abide by and obey all orders of the Soviet Union, and set an example by our own thoughts and actions. Study politics and military affairs hard, protect the interests of workers and peasants and their own weapons so that they will not be lost or stolen;

3. We are the pillars of the Soviet Union, and vowed to develop the national revolutionary war with our flesh and blood, carry out the agrarian revolution, overthrow the Kuomintang, ensure that the Soviet Union overthrew imperialism, strive for the liberation of China, arm the Soviet Union to complete the revolution, and strive for the socialist future;

4. Now that the enemy is attacking on a large scale, we should unite as one, fight to the death with bayonets and guns, and exchange our heads and blood for Soviet new China;

For the benefit of the class, we abide by the revolutionary discipline and obey the orders of our superiors. If you violate or disobey, you are willing to accept the punishment of revolutionary discipline and listen to the reprimand of your comrades.

1956 In February, the General Staff Department and the General Political Department of the People's Liberation Army of China issued the Provisions on the Work of Recruiting and Taking an Oath in the Army, requiring all units to take an oath in the army immediately after the recruits are isolated. This is the first written military order officially issued by the PLA after liberation. Its contents are as follows:

"I am a citizen of People's Republic of China (PRC). I solemnly swear to participate in the People's Liberation Army of China and shoulder the glorious responsibility of revolutionary soldiers:

First, under the leadership of Chairman Mao, I became a warrior who was brave and resourceful, strictly observed discipline, obeyed rules, obeyed orders and sacrificed everything to defend the motherland.

Second, study modern military science, improve political and cultural level, be proficient in weapons, always be ready to fight, overcome all difficulties and resolutely destroy the enemy;

Third, support the people's government, love the people, cherish weapons and state property, strictly observe state and military secrets, and always be loyal to the motherland and the people;

If I break my oath, I am willing to be severely punished by national laws and military discipline. "

1981February 13, the General Staff Department and the General Political Department of the People's Liberation Army of China issued the Notice on the Oath of Recruits, which stipulated that the new retired soldiers who took the oath for the first time after the issuance of the Notice should take the oath of enlistment every year, and requested that the oath should be included in the peacetime political education of the troops. The content of the oath is:

"I am a citizen of People's Republic of China (PRC), and it is my duty to perform military service in accordance with the law. In order to undertake the sacred duty of revolutionary soldiers, I swear:

1, love China * * * production party, love the socialist motherland, love China People's Liberation Army, and serve the people wholeheartedly.

2, the implementation of the party's line, principles and policies, abide by national laws and regulations, the implementation of military rules and regulations, obey orders, obey orders.

3. Study hard in military, politics, science and culture, train hard to kill the enemy, care for weapons and equipment, keep military secrets, carry forward fine traditions, participate in the construction of socialist material civilization and spiritual civilization, and be brave in fighting against violations of laws and regulations.

Fight bravely, not afraid of sacrifice, defend the socialist motherland, defend the people's peaceful labor, and never betray the motherland under any circumstances.

I will resolutely fulfill the above oath and never break it. "

In September, No.8 "China People's Liberation Army Internal Affairs Ordinance" was promulgated. Article 8 of the order stipulates that the military oath is:

"I am a citizen of People's Republic of China (PRC), and it is my glorious duty to perform military service according to law. In order to undertake the sacred duty of revolutionary soldiers, I swear:

Love China * * production party, love the socialist motherland, love the China People's Liberation Army, carry out the army's rules, regulations and rules, obey orders, obey orders, study hard military, political, scientific and cultural skills, practice hard to kill the enemy, care for weapons and equipment, keep military secrets, carry forward fine traditions, participate in the construction of socialist material civilization and spiritual civilization, and fight bravely. Not afraid of sacrifice, defend the motherland and socialist construction. I will resolutely fulfill the above oath and never break it. "

1997,No. 10 "China people's liberation army internal affairs ordinance" was promulgated, and the oath of soldiers stipulated in the ordinance was:

"I am a soldier of the China People's Liberation Army, and I swear:

Obey the leadership of the * * * production party in China, serve the people wholeheartedly, obey orders, strictly observe discipline, fight bravely, be not afraid of sacrifice, be loyal to their duties, work hard, practice hard to kill the enemy, and resolutely complete the task. Under no circumstances will they betray the motherland or the army. "

20 10 in June, Hu Jintao, Chairman of the Central Military Commission, issuedNo. 12 "Internal Affairs Regulations of the People's Liberation Army of China", which revised the oath of the soldiers as follows:

"I am a soldier of the China People's Liberation Army, and I swear:

Obey the leadership of China * * * Production Party, serve the people wholeheartedly, obey orders, strictly observe discipline, be brave and tenacious, not afraid of sacrifice, practice hard to kill the enemy, always be ready to fight, never betray the army, and defend the motherland to the death. "

The new oath is concise and easy to remember, and the form is novel, which is a high summary of the nature, tasks and responsibilities of our army. In the content, it highlights the fighting spirit of soldiers, and is also conducive to soldiers always remembering the sacred mission of defending the motherland.

I hope this answer is helpful to you.
