oil rig protection posts are considered “artificial islands” on the sea
and courageous marine soldiers are the islanders who protect the sea on

The 450 ton-Ship HQ624 took us and a
delegation of cadres and soldiers to visit DK1 oil rig protection posts
on the occasion of Tet (traditional Lunar New Year). Captain Le Dinh
Viet, Vice Chairman of Politics of the B Regional Command of the Navy
said: “The visit shows the comradeship between comrades and the deep
sentiment of people nationwide for the protection posts.” For Dinh Viet
and the crew’s members, it was the return visit to their “home” where
they have only ever worked.
Despite bad weather and heavy sea with 3-4m high waves, the ships still crossed the sea to transport Tet commodities to the oil rig protection posts. Here, the marine soldiers used cables to transport Tet communities and sent New Year’s greetings to their comrades by walkie-talkie.
