I am proud to be a Chinese.

September 3, 2015 marks the 70th anniversary of victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression (1937-45) and the World Anti-Fascist War. As one of the few representatives from Guangdong Province, Prof. Xu Kecheng, the winner of Bethune Medal and Role Model of the Time is invited to attend the Victory Day parade.

On September 3, Prof. Xu Kecheng got up early and washed up before he gathered with the party, went to Tian’anmen Square and took a seat in the reviewing stand. Prof Xu Kecheng shed emotional tears when he saw the sun rising from the east, gun salute firing, the National flag rising, President Xi Jinping inspecting troops, air flag guard formation passing by, formations of veterans passing through Tian’anmen Square. What a glorious moment it is when Chinese all over the world are overwhelmed by national dignity and national pride.

Prof. Xu Kecheng said, “The Victory Day parade on September 3 will be written into the annals of history. It is not only a demonstration of the great spirit of anti-aggression of Chinese people but also calls people to remember the past and cherish the hard-won peace”.

All weaponry shown in the Victory Day parade are new domestically produced and the ground force, the navy, the Second Artillery Corps, and People’s Army Police have debuted many of their new weaponry. Among them, the air formations in the parade are one of the highlights. The number of jets involved hit an all-time record. Ten air formations including air flag guard formation and air echelons were involved and it was the first time a commemorative number had been formed in any military practice.
