A 90 year old soldier celebrates his dreams
2025-05-22
Recently, in Qiaokeng Village, Donglinxi Town, Xiuning County, Anhui Province, when Wang Zhongxin (second from right), a recipient of the "August 1st Medal", dressed 91 year old veteran Pei Dongjiu (third from left) in a brand new old-fashioned military uniform, the old man's eyes sparkled with light. He slowly raised his right hand and tremblingly saluted Wang Zhongxin with a military salute. This scene moved everyone present. Helping veterans fulfill their dreams has also fulfilled my wish. ”In 2020, Wang Zhongxin, who had served in the military for 34 years, retired and returned to his hometown to lead the establishment of the "Soldier King Studio", fully leveraging the role of retired soldiers and dedicating themselves to serving the society and the public. Nowadays, the studio has become a comprehensive platform for conducting national defense education, conscription propaganda, policy consultation for retired soldiers, and conflict resolution in the local area. Pei Dongjiu, born in 1934, enlisted in 1951 and served in the former Communication Eighth Regiment of the East China Military Region. He was demobilized and returned to his hometown in 1956. The military uniform that was cherished back then has been worn out due to its age, and it is a wish for the elderly to have a brand new military uniform. Not long ago, during a visit and condolence, Wang Zhongxin learned about Pei Dongjiu's wish and together with colleagues from the County Veterans Affairs Bureau, customized this old-fashioned military uniform for him.
