Master Han sighed lightly, "The Navy, like our Air Force, is highly specialized, and there are few veterans transitioning from the Navy. If only Zhang Jiangkun hadn't been transferred to the East Sea, he was in the Navy."
The upcoming Navy Reserve Camp is of a higher caliber than the previous Army Reserve Battalion, without a regintal-level unit or even a divisional-level unit, and will directly answer to the Navy Headquarters.
Xu Sanye once said that no matter what you do, you should strive to be the first.
Han Xiangning thought this camp would have a better future than the Linghai Reserve Camp and couldn't help but smile, "What's so hard about establishing a Navy Reserve Camp? When San'er returns from the Capital, he can invite an expert."
"Invite who?" Old Han asked with a smile.
"We can invite the old director of our unit, Director Feng, who not only served in the Navy but was the youngest ship captain and division-level leader in the entire Navy when he was in the military. After transferring to Cosco, he was responsible for the Navy's communication and coordination, and can be said to have worked on building the Navy's reserve forces at Cosco."
"That's right. If you hadn't ntioned it, I wouldn't have rembered. With Director Feng's help, this camp won't be difficult to establish."
Just as Master Han finished speaking, Liang Xiaojun couldn't help but laugh, "Dad, when San'er cos back, let him form a Navy Reserve Camp expert group, send an invitation to Director Feng, and invite him as a mber of the expert group."
Master Han put down the wine glass and said, "But Director Feng is in the Capital."
"Director Feng is in the Capital, but he's already retired. Besides, Binjiang is where he worked for many years, his second ho. As long as San'er sends an invitation, Director Feng would definitely be willing to co back and visit."
Han Xiangning truly missed the old leader and imdiately walked over to call Sister Zhu.
Vice Mayor Qin had just arrived ho and answered before Sister Zhu.
Vice Mayor Qin understood the situation and with a smile asked, "Did Political Commissioner Chen call you?"
"He just called my dad and asked him to give San'er so advice."
"And you thought of Director Feng first?"
"Yes."
"That's a good idea. Tomorrow morning, when San'er is sober, give him a call and tell him to contact Director Feng as soon as possible, and preferably visit him in person."
"Then what?"
"Let San'er first report to Director Feng. I'll talk to Commander Wang of the Military District later and then issue an invitation in the na of our City Committee and Military District. You and Old Zhu should report to Director Tang when you go to work tomorrow and invite Director Feng to co back and visit in the na of your Port Supervision Bureau."
"Sure!"
Han Xiangning smiled and suddenly rembered sothing, "Mayor Qin, will you be in charge of this Navy Reserve Camp when it's established?"
"I'm the Deputy Political Commissioner of the Jiangnan Army Reserve Division, not the Navy Reserve Division, the Army can't manage the Navy. However, Shen Fan can serve as the first secretary of the Navy Reserve Camp."
"What about San'er? He can't be the camp commander of both the Linghai Reserve Camp and the Navy Reserve Camp, can he?"
"Why not?"
Vice Mayor Qin retorted with a smile and explained, "The reserve forces aren't active-duty forces. It's entirely possible to schedule the training for the two camps at different tis. Wearing the Army uniform, he's the camp commander of the Linghai Reserve Camp, and wearing the Navy uniform, he's the camp commander of the Navy Reserve Camp. Take off the military uniform, and he's a Customs officer."
Han Xiangning pursued further, "What about the officers and soldiers in the camp?"
"The sa."
"One team, two identities?"
"The Navy is quite specialized, and the personnel can't be the sa. We'll need to recruit a group of new comrades."
Vice Mayor Qin recalled Secretary Lu's instructions and couldn't help but laugh, "Secretary Lu instructed that the Navy Reserve Camp should be established in Binjiang, and once it's set up, it should be called the Binjiang Navy Reserve Camp. They even have a location thought out for the camp."
Linghai already has one Linghai Reserve Camp, and the city won't give Secretary Ye and Mayor Qian an opportunity to exploit this ti.
Holding back a laugh, Han Xiangning asked, "Where's the camp going to be set up?"
"Next year, Customs will receive an anti-smuggling boat, and the camp will be located next to the Customs Anti-Smuggling Pier that's under construction. Placing it in Binjiang is more conducive to establishing the Navy Reserve Camp, as it can leverage not only the Customs' soon-to-be-equipped anti-smuggling boat but also the Binjiang Shipping College. If there's a need for sea training or to participate in naval exercises, we could even recruit the fishery administration ships from the provincial fishery administration headquarters."
The 500-ton fishery administration ships, though part of the provincial fishery administration headquarters, mainly dock at the Lu Jing Port fishery administration pier in Binjiang since it's closer to the sea.
Since we're going to establish a Navy Reserve Camp, there must be sailors and ships.
Han Xiangning had a sudden realization and couldn't help but laugh, "The teachers at our school can all 'join the military,' and the crew of the anti-smuggling boat team San'er is forming and the captain and crew of the provincial fishery administration ships are all natural mbers of the Navy Reserve Camp!"
"That's exactly what Secretary Lu had in mind."
"In that case, forming a Navy Reserve Camp isn't too difficult."
"If it's just establishing a team, it's not hard, but forming combat effectiveness like the Linghai Reserve Camp isn't easy. Fortunately, your Salted Fish is soon being transferred to Customs. Once there, he won't have to worry about anything else, just focus on managing ships and crew, allowing enough ti and energy to prepare for establishing the Navy Reserve Camp."
Vice Mayor Qin glanced at his partner, contemplated, and continued with a laugh, "In fact, the job of forming the Navy Reserve Camp doesn't conflict with what he'll be doing after transferring to Customs."
Han Xiangning didn't think the Navy truly needed a reserve camp to strengthen its mariti combat capabilities and said, "Mayor Qin, I think the Navy Chiefs are asking San'er to establish a Navy Reserve Camp likely hoping we'll continue to provide escorts for submarines and other vessels entering and exiting the Yangtze River as before."
"That's possible. Regardless of what the higher-ups are considering, once they've made a request, we will implent it. Old Zhu is beside ; I'll let Old Zhu talk to you."
"Okay!"
