Welcome at the highest courtesy of the Airport Pratunam!

Welcome back the hero with the highest etiquette.
In every burning loyal soul,
Both contain the indomitable national spirit.

Those young faces,
With a mission, the hero goes out,
Help justice and defend the country!
It was a battle to build a nation,
Under extremely difficult conditions,
Volunteer soldiers
Play the military prestige
Create a peaceful environment for New China!
In that battle, over 190,000 soldiers
The soul is separated from another country, and the bones are buried in a foreign country!
70 years, the vicissitudes of life,
But the Chinese people have never forgotten!

Due to the long and tragic war, most of the remains were damaged to a large extent and there was no identity information, but fortunately, 1368 relics were excavated this time, including multiple name seals, which may add a certain degree of convenience for identification.
Last year, China used DNA technology for the first time to determine the identity of six unnamed volunteer martyrs.
The seventh batch of name seals were found in the remains of the Korean Volunteer Army martyrs.
"The motherland has taken you home!" The handover site shouted loudly, starting a brief and solemn memorial ceremony.
The salutes of the Chinese People's Liberation Army salute the heroes of the martyrs, and all the personnel take off their hats and bow three times.
Afterwards, the Chinese People's Liberation Army salute soldiers escorted the martyrs' coffins onto a special plane of the Air Force.
The heaven and the earth are heroic, and the ages are still awe-inspiring,
Go home!
Go home!
The hero is back!
