PANO - More than 50 young soldiers, who had experienced a course for the newly-recruited, are trying their best in a special training course at Height 32.8 as instructed by commanders of Company 2, Signal Battalion 18, Division 395.
Under scorching sun, they are laying telephone lines, carying coils of cable or swiftly climbing across hillsides to reach the set targets.
Laying cable is hard to do. Thus, some of them have made mistake. However, under heartily instructions by experienced officers, they have got used to that.
During the one-month course, these young troops will receive basic knowledge and skills on technique and warfare tactics of some signal equipment, transceivers, cipher M82 and so on.
Besides, they will also be taught on politics about Signal Corps and Division’s tradition as well as typical achievements.
“Basic knowledge is a pre-requisite. Assigned tasks require promptitude, secrecy and full safety from each signal soldier”, said Second-Lieutenant Pham Ngoc Hung.
