Revealing surprising things about Senior Lieutenant Ngoc Han - voiceover on September 2
Being selected to read the commentary at the 80th anniversary of the August Revolution and National Day September 2 is a special honor for Senior Lieutenant Le Thi Ngoc Han - a girl working at the Propaganda Department, Political Department, Ho Chi Minh City Command.
For Ngoc Han, this is not only an important task but also a recognition and trust of the organization for the army soldiers.
"This is the noble duty of a revolutionary soldier, of a soldier of the Vietnam People's Army - a force that is always absolutely loyal to the Fatherland and the people. I tell myself to try my best to fully demonstrate the spirit and momentum of this important holiday, worthy of the Uncle Ho's army uniform that I am wearing," Senior Lieutenant Le Thi Ngoc Han shared.
Born in 1991, in a family with a rich revolutionary tradition - her grandfather was a martyr, her grandmother participated in the resistance war - Ngoc Han was nurtured early on in her love of country and national pride. Growing up, she made her dream of joining the army come true when she became an officer at the Ho Chi Minh City Command.
Audiences familiar with Ngoc Han's voice commented that her Southern accent has a heroic, warm and friendly tone. But not only does it stop at being soft and expressive, she always focuses on maintaining the decisiveness, strength, and heroic tone of military tradition.
"I always keep in mind that every time I raise my voice, I represent the image of a soldier. Every word, every breath must exude the spirit of a soldier, while still touching the emotions of the listener. It is the combination of my hometown's voice and military spirit that I always preserve," Ngoc Han said.
From the moment she was assigned the important task of being the voice-over speaker for the parade that would take place at Ba Dinh Square, Hanoi, Senior Lieutenant Ngoc Han devoted all her energy to training. Although she was used to military discipline and order, her schedule became more special during the preparation period for the grand ceremony.
"I woke up at 5:30 to practice breathing to keep my voice stable. At 7:30, I started practicing with the team. Before that, everyone had to warm up and practice singing. The team was divided into morning, afternoon and evening shifts. All activities revolved around the sole goal of keeping their voice, health and spirit in the best condition to complete the mission," Ngoc Han said.
For Ngoc Han, commentary is not just a reading job but also a mission to convey historical values, national pride, and gratitude to previous generations. Therefore, pressure also goes hand in hand with honor.
During the training, the bustling, heroic atmosphere of the participating team further motivated the female lieutenant.
"The determined eyes of each comrade, the drops of sweat rolling down their cheeks, the steady steps during practice... urged me to try harder to be worthy of this special honor," Ngoc Han was moved.
During the two months away from home to focus on the ceremony, she always received encouragement from her family. Her parents and relatives were not only proud but also gave her strength with their wishes and simple but emotional messages.
With all the serious preparations, Senior Lieutenant Le Thi Ngoc Han hopes that each commentary on September 2nd will contribute to spreading the spirit of solidarity and national pride, while also portraying the beautiful image of soldiers in the hearts of the public.
