What is the origin of Army Day?

On August 1, 1927, the Communist Party of China led part of the National Revolutionary Army in an armed uprising in Nanchang, Jiangxi Province.
The uprising was led by Zhou Enlai, He Long, Ye Ting, Zhu De, Liu Bocheng and Tan Pingshan. On July 11, 1933, the Provisional Central Government of the Chinese Soviet Republic, based on the proposal of the Central Revolutionary Military Commission on June 30, decided to designate August 1 as the founding anniversary of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army.
From then on, August 1st became the founding day of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army and later the Chinese People's Liberation Army.

What should we do on Army Day?

1. Activities to support the military
Every year on Army Day, the troops organize grand commemorative activities to celebrate their own holiday. At the same time, we must organize activities to support the army and their families, publicize the glorious traditions of the people's army, and check the implementation of preferential treatment and relief work.
2. Tomb memorial for heroes
On this day, the entire army will hold various events to celebrate their own activities. Some held art performances in the army to showcase their talents; some visited lonely elderly people in the community to offer them the warmth of family love; and some went to the revolutionary martyrs' cemetery to sweep tombs or hold online memorial services to commemorate those heroes who sacrificed their precious lives for the revolution and the people.
3. Visit and comfort old comrades
Visit and express condolences to retired comrades and cadres of the military, and extend holiday greetings and good wishes to them.
4. Donate love to poor families
In some remote areas or areas where family conditions are not very good, especially during festivals, we visit the poor and inquire about their hardships, and bring the Party's warmth to the hearts of the people.
