China's V-Day military parade was held at Tian'anmen Square in Beijing on Sep 3. Ma Zhangsuo, a 102-year-old veteran from Ningxia, recalled his memories of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931-45) and the World Anti-Fascist War with a trembling yet firm voice. The smoke of war has faded, and the land remains at peace. With deep emotion, he expressed heartfelt wishes for the nation's continued prosperity and peace.
