Is the crew really useful?

Of course. Please see the true confession of the crew:

The crew is probably the least valued of all arms of the whole army. He is not as handsome as the navy or as strong as the army; As an air force, he doesn't have the status of a favored pilot, the mysterious aura of a missile force, and the loneliness of a radar soldier. He is a group of people who are almost forgotten.

I have been working in the front line since I joined the army, and I can deeply understand the ups and downs of maintaining soldiers. People who work in the front line of maintenance are basically workaholics who only work and don't talk. They may have been soldiers for more than 20 years, with the ranks of major and lieutenant colonel on their shoulders, but they are still fighting in the front line of maintenance, no different from ordinary soldiers. Too little attention is paid to the crew. In the air force, all the focus is on the pilots. How many people really care about the crew?

Say what is the patron saint of Hulk, but who knows what the crew will use to protect Hulk, with their own efforts and their own lives? During the flight, the pilot arrived by air-conditioned luxury bus, and the crew arrived by tractor two or even three hours in advance. Get everything ready and wait for the pilot. As soon as the pilot is in the sky, his heart will follow him. That kind of worry is unimaginable for people who have never done maintenance. It's easy to see your plane back, the pilot left with a helmet, and the crew had to check again after the flight. When the pilots go home to take a shower, they may all be asleep, so it is good for the crew to leave.

The crew never compete with the pilots. I work at the risk of my life. It is normal to get a higher salary. We understand pilots. But how many people in turn understand us? Cold comes and summer goes, wind blows and rain blows, which is our daily life. We have been mechanics for more than ten years. If you can't do this, you are crazy. The last time you changed jobs, not to mention being sick this time, it was difficult to arrange jobs in your career. Other army battalions generally have no social relations. What do maintenance cadres have? It's nothing. I had to ride my own broken bike and take a box of good cigarettes that I had never smoked before to find a job. I can't even talk well in front of others. This is not an exaggeration but a fact.

In the air force, you are not a pilot or a political cadre. Your future is really too small. When I just graduated from the military academy, no one was complacent, but when I arrived in the army, it was completely different from when I was at school. Those who have connections and some writing skills have changed careers. Other people's edges and corners were polished a little, and gradually became the workhorse around the rag.

The crew can face difficulties and hardships, but they just can't stand not being understood and left out. In the air force, the number of crew members is the largest, but why is it the worst? The biggest feature of the crew may be complaining, but as long as they enter this field, they must go all out. Or maybe it's this tradition that numbs people who want to pay attention to us. "Ah, that's ok. Do better after complaining. Don't worry about them yet. "

I have only one purpose in writing this article, that is, to bring something plain and simple in such an overly romantic military forum. Pilots, autobots, special forces, snowy plateaus and desert islands make people feel respected. What about ordinary maintenance soldiers? In their lives, there are no bullets, no life, and even difficult conditions, but it is such a group of people who need more attention.

This is the true confession of a maintenance soldier!
