Military training is the basic form for college students to perform military service obligations.
Military training for college students is an important way to cultivate the national defense reserve force, a basic form for college students to fulfill their military service obligations, and a fundamental requirement of national laws and regulations.
Worry-free is suffering, and unprepared is unstable. China has been in a stable environment of peaceful development for a long time. Many people have played down the importance of national defense education and strengthened the one-sided concept that national defense depends solely on the army. National defense is the national defense and the national defense of the whole people. In today’s major countries, although the ways and means of national defense education are different, all of them are based on unique and effective national defense education to ensure the manpower, technology and financial resources needed for the war. Since the reform and opening up, because the country has been in a peaceful environment for a long time, citizens’ national defense concept has begun to be indifferent. At present, the security environment facing our country is very complicated, so we must strengthen our sense of hardship. While implementing national defense education for all, we can only strengthen but not weaken the national defense awareness, national defense concept and patriotism education of national defense reserve forces, provide strong and firm talent support for the army, and fundamentally ensure the long-term stability and stable development of our country.
College age is an important period for young students to step into society and gradually form their outlook on life, values and world outlook, which has an important impact on their future life development. Cultivating the national defense reserve forces and implementing the military training system for college students are not only an important guarantee for strengthening the modernization of the army and improving its combat capability, but also the basic requirements of national laws and regulations. The implementation of the military training system for college students must closely focus on the big goal of ensuring national security, stability, harmonious and sustainable development. To ensure the strict implementation and good operation of the military training system for college students, we should strengthen the shaping of the public opinion environment, training environment and living environment for college students’ military training, not only face up to the existing problems, but also actively participate in and jointly explore solutions, so as to fundamentally enhance the understanding, understanding and support of college students and the public for the military training system for college students.
Scientific training, homeopathic innovation. Undeniably, the problem of formalization of college students’ military training does exist at present, and all colleges and relevant military training institutions must attach great importance to it and conduct in-depth theoretical and practical exploration on the operation of college students’ military training system to ensure the overall improvement of college students’ military training effect. We should establish a perfect professional military training organization for students, integrate the "part-time", "sub-contract" and "block" organizations in military training work, and realize unified organizational leadership; We should actively learn from foreign advanced experience and scientific practices in national defense education, and combine them with China’s specific reality to constantly innovate the content system, methods and training environment of college students’ military training; Open military training for students should be implemented, parents of students and people from all walks of life should be encouraged to observe the military training for students, and military training for students should be combined with national defense education for all, so as to expand the comprehensiveness, extensiveness and publicity of national defense education.
In short, whether it is to cultivate the national defense reserve force for the country or to improve the enthusiasm and effect of college students’ military training, we should keep pace with the development of the times, keep pace with national security and stability, boldly innovate, think deeply and study deeply to prevent ideological rigidity and imprisonment.
