During the war, the Chinese party, government and people sent the Chinese People’s Volunteers composed of their excellent sons and daughters to support the struggle of the Korean people at the cost of their blood under the uplifted banner of resisting America and aiding Korea, safeguarding the home and defending the motherland, and thus boosted the DPRK-China friendship forged in the flames of the anti-Japanese war and strikingly demonstrated its invincibility and vitality.
