Demining is also a form of teamwork

Writing about the trauma of World War II from a new perspective, German prisoners of war were ordered to clear German landmines on the west coast of Denmark. Wars bring disaster both during and after the war. And those who have been traumatized by war, whether invaders or enslaved, are vulnerable and need to be rescued.
As far as the task of demining is concerned, demining is also an example of teamwork. After the mines are removed, all engineers are required to fight in a queue to test whether all the mines are removed in the minefield. Everyone must trust their peers, and pin their own and even the entire team's destiny on their own and each peer's achievements. This determines that, in the process of demining, everyone should always remind themselves that whether the demining is thorough or not is related to the survival of themselves and the team.
