Starting from the deputy company commander of the Soldier Assault Team

Zhang Anbang immediately unscrewed the lid, "Hmm, it really smells good. This thermos works quite well," he praised before starting to eat heartily.

Within two minutes, Gao Cheng also picked up his chopsticks. "Your food is making me hungry. Don't eat so fast, leave some for me."

"No, you said it was for me," Zhang Anbang said, but his hands slowed down.

……

The lively Spring Festival has passed, and the intense spring training has begun. The days are passing quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it's already March.

On March 7th, Zhang Anbang sat in his office, looking at the red-lined letter paper on his desk, humming a little tune with great pleasure.

He was clearly in a very good mood at the moment. In the past week, he had encountered two good things. The first was that his wife had been transferred here and was now also working in the C Group Army.

Another thing is that he has finally turned 25 today.

Yesterday, he first received three private phone calls: one from his future mother-in-law, Director Chen Jinglan; one from the railway; and one from Wang Qingrui.

The three phone calls contained both direct and indirect messages, but they all boiled down to one thing: it's time to get married now that I'm of age.

The fourth private call was from Gu Xiaonan. Before she could speak, Zhang Anbang preemptively said, "Xiaonan, I think we're both at the age required by the military. I'm thinking of submitting the marriage application tomorrow."

Gu Xiaonan on the other end of the phone paused for a moment, then quickly chuckled lightly, "Okay, I'll submit it tomorrow too. Why are you being so proactive today? I just called and you brought this up."

"Yeah, I just can't wait to marry you."

Gu Xiaonan's clear voice rang out, "I don't believe it. You blockhead, you can't possibly say something like that. Did your old company commander teach you something again? Or is someone pressuring you? I don't believe your own thoughts."

Anbang, let me tell you, I received a call from Director Chen yesterday. She asked when we're going to submit our marriage certificate. Knowing how much Director Chen likes you, I don't believe she hasn't been urging you.

"No, no," Zhang Anbang quickly denied. "Aunt Chen, the head of the department, didn't urge me. She just called to chat as usual and reminded me to have a good birthday."

"It's mainly what I just said, I just want to marry you as soon as possible. Oh, and there's something else I want to discuss with you. My old company commander asked me if we should have a joint wedding ceremony. What do you think?"

Gu Xiaonan didn't hesitate. "I think it's a good idea. Most of the people you know are in the capital. We'll definitely hold the wedding here. It'll be easier and less stressful to do it with your old company commander."

We'll definitely need to take a vacation for the wedding, and the vacation is quite long. We can just have it done again at my hometown, what do you think?

No sooner had he finished speaking than Zhang Anbang replied, "Yes, we must. Your relatives are all over there, so we definitely need to hold a ceremony there to announce my status as their son-in-law."

……

The idea of ​​holding weddings on both sides wasn't actually Zhang Anbang's own. In his mind, one wedding would be enough, but when Tie Lu and Wang Qingrui called him, they said that he had to hold another one at the bride's home.

After all, it's too far away. If it's only held in the capital, many of the Gu family's relatives might not be able to come over.

After hanging up the phone, seeing that the department wasn't too busy, Zhang Anbang took out some red-lined letter paper and placed it on his desk.

He planned to write the application while he had this opportunity, since he had already made the promise and that was what he thought too.

While twirling the Hero gold pen in his hand, Zhang Anbang looked at the template given to him by Section Chief Wang Haiyang. The text on the template was very short, but he finished reading it in just two minutes.

"It's alright, this is actually quite easy to write."

Zhang Anbang muttered something to himself, then immediately wrote down four large characters: Marriage Report.

To the Party Committee and Political Department of the Division Headquarters:

I am Zhang Anbang, male, Han nationality, born in March 1979, from Mudan City, Shandong Province. I entered Tsinghua University in September 1996 to study Information and Command and Foreign Languages, and joined the Communist Party of China on campus in December 1998.

He graduated with two bachelor's degrees on June 28, 2000, and officially enlisted in the army on July 4 of the same year. He is currently the deputy head of the training section of the T Division Headquarters of the C Group Army of the Garrison Military Region, with the rank of major and the administrative level of battalion commander.

His romantic partner, Gu Xiaonan, is an active-duty military officer. She is a female of Han ethnicity, born in January 1979 in Xiaocheng City, Hubei Province. She was admitted to the PLA Information Engineering Academy in September 1994.

He joined the Communist Party of China in December 1997 while still in school, graduated with a master's degree in 2001, holds the rank of major, and is a professional and technical level 12 officer. He is currently the director of the technical office of the military region's directly subordinate communications station.

He has a clean political history, no overseas social connections, no record of illegal or disciplinary violations, is in good health, and has reached the military's late marriage age.

I met Gu Xiaonan through normal channels, fell in love, and our relationship has been stable for two years.

Both parties maintained proper conduct and strictly adhered to military regulations and the rules governing officers' marriages and relationships, refraining from any unauthorized outings, unauthorized overnight stays, or other disciplinary violations.

Both of us are active-duty military officers. Our respective party organizations are aware of our relationship. Both of my parents have passed away and I have no immediate family members visiting me. My partner's parents are alive and well, and they are aware of and agree to our marriage registration.

I am 25 years of age or older, which meets the requirements for late marriage for military officers and all the requirements of the General Political Department's marriage and relationship management in 2001.

After marriage, I will properly balance my work and family life, strictly abide by combat readiness discipline, perform my duties with peace of mind, and do my best to complete all tasks related to duty, training, and exercises. Therefore, I hereby apply to the organization for review and approval of my marriage.

I humbly request the organization's approval.

Sincerely,

salute!

Speaker: Zhang Anbang

June 2004, 3

After writing the last word, Zhang Anbang put down his pen, took the completed application report, and walked directly to the door of Wang Haiyang's office next door. He knocked lightly on the door twice, and after receiving a "come in," he pushed the door open and entered.

"Section Chief, I've come to hand over a document," he said, stepping over to the desk and handing over the red-lined draft he had just written.

Wang Haiyang, who was engrossed in checking the plan for next week's field training, looked up when he heard this, took the paper from him, glanced at it, and raised an eyebrow. "A marriage report? Goodness, you're quick on the uptake."

Zhang Anbang chuckled twice. "I have to hurry. Some of my uncles are urging me to get married. Besides, it's not easy to find a wife, so I have to bring her home as soon as possible."

We've finally reached the age for late marriage, we can't wait a day longer. Section Chief, we've already gone through the political vetting process on both sides of the relationship report, which was done at our previous workplaces. I've also clearly stated our family situations.

When I was transferred here, there was a record in the documents. In addition, my personal family situation was also specifically noted in the main text. This will make it easier for the organization to verify the subsequent family visit leave registration. There are no alterations throughout the document. Please take a look.
