He Bochao, a 94-year-old veteran of the Chinese People’s Volunteers who participated in the 1950-53 Korean War, traveled 3,000 kilometers from southwest China’s Sichuan Province to visit his 96-year-old former squad leader Gao Wangong, now living in eastern Shandong Province. After learning about He’s story, the crew of the flight he took on December 9 offered an emotional tribute to the hero.
