|Fifty years ago, on October 25th, Chinese
People's Volunteer Army crossed the Yalu River to resist the
aggressive advance of the United States on the Korean Peninsula
and assist the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.
This was a just war for the Chinese army
in order to safeguard the nation and help maintain world peace.
The majority of the officers and ordinary soldiers showed
their patriotism. They placed the interests of the country
and the people above all else.
They developed a fine style of work to
share joys and sorrows and fight in unity. They possessed
a revolutionary and heroic mettle. And they made a firm stand
against violence, opposing hegemonism and maintaining world
peace. Half a century later, these events have become the
most precious spiritual treasure of the Chinese nation.
To commemorate the 50th anniversary
of Chinese volunteers' entry into Korea, the China Internet
Information Center is offering a special report to commemorate
these exciting scenes in the past and reveal the moving stories
of the old soldiers involved.
