在山西省的广大城乡,人们经常看到一位风尘仆仆、日夜奔波在民兵和预备役工作岗位上的老同志。他时而找民兵和预备役工作干部谈话,时而跑到民兵家中与人谈心,又时而找当地党政干部拜师求教,了解群众生产生活情况,商量怎样发挥民兵在商品生产和勤劳致富中的带头作用。他走到哪里,哪里的人民群众都把他看作党和上级派来的亲人,一些民兵和人武干部,更干脆称他是“民兵司令”。 In the vast majority of urban and rural areas in Shanxi Province, people often see an old man who is always on the go and working day and night in militia and reserve positions. From time to time, he talked to the militia and reserve cadres and went to the militia’s home to talk with people. He also sought help from local party and government cadres, learned about the production and living conditions of the masses and how to give play to the militarization’s leading role in commodity production and hard work. Where did he go? Wherever the people regard him as the relatives sent by the party and his superiors, and some militias and people’s armed cadres, calling them “commanders of the militia.”
