The footsteps are sonorous, and the national anthem is loud and clear
Morning of August 1
Tiananmen Square, Beijing
The bright five-star red flag rises with the sun!
95th anniversary of the founding of the PLA
Let's salute the most lovely person!
The Army Day is the anniversary of the founding of the Chinese People's Liberation Army. It is set as August 1 every year by the Chinese People's Revolutionary Military Commission to commemorate the founding of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army.
On July 11, 1933, the Provisional Central Government of the Soviet Republic of China, on the recommendation of the Central Revolutionary Military Commission on June 30, decided that August 1 would be the anniversary of the founding of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army. On June 15, 1949, the Chinese People's Revolutionary Military Commission issued an order to use the word "August 1" as the main symbol of the PLA's military flag and emblem. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, this anniversary was renamed the PLA Day.
According to the Law of the People's Republic of China on the Protection of Military Status and Rights and Interests, August 1 every year is the Army Day of the Chinese People's Liberation Army. People's governments at all levels and military units shall organize celebration, commemoration and other activities on the Army Day.
