Were the remains of the volunteers cremated and then returned to China?

No, the repatriation of the remains of volunteers is a very complicated project, far more difficult than imagined. Let's start with why the remains of the martyrs were sent back by South Korea and not by North KoreaThe reason is simple. War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea.

The place of engagement spanned the north and south of the 38th parallel of the Korean Peninsula, especially after the third battle, our army mostly fought in the area south of the 38th parallel. Due to the tense combat situation, the remains of many of the sacrificed soldiers could not be transported back to the rear area and had to be buried on the spot. As a result, these martyrs are buried in what is now South Korea.

The entire Korean War.

A total of 10,000 people were sacrificed by the volunteers, and in addition to the remains of 5,000 people who were sent back to home and abroad, most of the bodies of martyrs in North Korea were recovered and buried in the martyrs' cemetery in North Korea, including the famous Mao Anying.

The remains of the volunteer martyrs were not cremated before they were brought back to China, but the bones of the volunteer martyrs were sorted out and put in an urn, and then airlifted back to China.

Either cremated back to China, the remains, or the remains of the sacrificed soldiers, because it is necessary to confirm their identities and identify the remains for DNA and other identification, so they are not ashes.

The repatriation of the remains of the martyrs of the Chinese People's Volunteers refers to the return of the remains of the martyrs of the Chinese People's Volunteers from South Korea to China.

In 2013, in the spirit of friendly consultation and pragmatic cooperation, China and the ROK reached an agreement on returning the remains of the martyrs of the Korean Volunteers to China. From 2014 to 2021, the ROK has handed over the remains of a total of 825 Chinese volunteer martyrs to China for eight consecutive years.

On September 16, 2022, the remains of the ninth batch of 88 martyrs of the Korean Volunteers returned to China. On the morning of the 14th, the Chinese delegation arrived in South Korea. The funeral ceremony was held on the 15th, the handover ceremony was held on the 16th and transported back to China by Yun 20, the welcome ceremony was held in Shenyang, and the burial ceremony was held in the Shenyang Martyrs' Cemetery to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea on the morning of the 17th.

No. Because of its age, it has been ossified, so it is directly boxed to welcome the martyrs back to China for burial.

After the remains and relics of the martyrs of the volunteers returned to China from South Korea, they had to go through a total of three things.

The first is to sort out and classify the relics of the martyrs of the volunteers. According to recent news reports, in addition to the remains of the martyrs of the volunteer army, there are also various daily necessities used by soldiers who were cleaned from the battlefield in those years. For the relics of these volunteer martyrs, the first thing we should do is to try our best to correspond each item to every martyr of that year, and do our best to send some clothes to the families of the volunteer martyrs.

Because for the families of these martyrs, there are traces of the martyrs' use on these relics, at least some memories can be obtained from these items. Therefore, the first thing that needs to be dealt with is to contact the surviving families of these martyrs, and then hand over their relics to these families.

The remains of volunteers were cremated and then returned to China, and our country advocates civilized burials.

Probably not! Watching the news is about bringing the remains of volunteers back to the motherland!

According to recent news reports, in addition to the remains of the martyrs of the volunteer army, there are also various daily necessities used by the soldiers who were cleaned from the battlefield back then.

The repatriation of the remains of the volunteers is to forever remember their great contributions to the cause of world peace and human progress. It is necessary to bear in mind the profound disasters brought by war to mankind, and to cherish and maintain the hard-won peaceful environment. It is necessary to examine history, observe reality, and think about the future with a development mindset and a long-term vision, so as to better promote the noble cause of peace and development of mankind

Although it has been more than 60 years since the martyrs of the volunteer army who sacrificed their lives for the country have left, the heroic image of the "loveliest person" will always remain in people's hearts. The great spirit of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea is a concentrated display of the traditional virtues and national character of the Chinese nation, a concrete embodiment of the national spirit with patriotism as the core, and will always be the precious wealth of the Chinese people and a source of strength for the Chinese people to forge ahead in unity, overcome difficulties, and forge ahead courageously.

It is necessary to use the heroic deeds of the martyrs of the volunteers to boost their fighting spirit, carry forward the great spirit of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea, and provide a powerful spiritual driving force for upholding and developing socialism with Chinese characteristics.

Because these remains were found one after another.

In the transfer work in 1954, there will definitely be many remains and remains of volunteers south of the 38th parallel that have not yet been discovered. Therefore, later, the remains of volunteers found by the South Korean side were handed over to the Chinese team through the Military Armistice Committee and buried in North Korea. However, in 1991, when the DPRK withdrew its delegation from the Military Armistice Commission, the Military Armistice Commission lost its practical function and significance, and China withdrew its seven-member team in the same year, so the search for and reception of the remains of the missing volunteers was suspended.

Since then, the South Korean side has excavated hundreds of remains of volunteers in the continuous excavation of the remains of the Korean War dead. Since North Korea was no longer receiving, the remains were placed at the "North Korean and Chinese soldiers' cemetery" in Paju, South Korea. In recent years, thanks to the high-level agreement between China and South Korea on the handover of the remains of the volunteers, including the remains found later, these veterans who died for the Chinese New Year have been able to return to the land of the motherland.

The reason why they chose to divide the batch is entirely because the remains of these volunteer martyrs were not found at one time, but after a long period of efforts, the remains of the volunteer martyrs were found little by little, and when the remains of the volunteer martyrs were returned, they needed to make a lot of preparations, they needed to clean up the remains of the volunteer martyrs, and they also had to clean up a lot of relics and other items.

It's a lot more cumbersome than we thought, and it's the most important thing between China and South Korea, so there's a lot of approval going through and so on.

The main reason is that the place where these martyrs died back then is likely to have become other places, and it is not so easy to find them, from 2014 to the present, a total of 825 martyrs' remains have returned to China.

Because the excavation is dug in batches. Because South Korea has been exhuming the remains of volunteers. According to historical records of combat deployments and the memories of veterans who participated in the war, South Korea planted a red flag at every possible position where soldiers from more than 60 years ago might appear.

Because the number of Korean volunteers was relatively large, and the time of discovery was inconsistent, they returned to China in stages.

South Korea's excavation of the remains of the volunteers is gradually discovered, there are too many people who died in the war, the objective conditions at that time were very poor, many of the remains are buried close to each other, decades later, after the remains are found, we must carry out preliminary screening according to the relics at that time, and later do DNA testing, etc., the remains are very troublesome to deal with by mistake, so China and South Korea have always adhered to the view that it is better to be slow than wrong, and the remains of the martyrs of the volunteers are invited back to the motherland in phases and batches.

The reason why the remains of the People's Volunteers returned to China in batches is that the remains of the martyrs of the volunteers were not found at one time, but were found little by little under the long-term efforts to find them, and the remains of the martyrs of the volunteers needed to be cleaned up, and there would also be relics and other items of the volunteers. Moreover, the return of the remains of volunteer martyrs requires a lot of approval procedures in China and South Korea.

It should be based on the time of sacrifice, different battles and other reasons before the remains are returned in batches, because it must be reported in the supporting country (North Korea)**, and it must be recorded in history after returning to the country, so that future generations will know.

This has to ask South Korea if it is to make us pay more service fees.

Today's Soul Returns! The country's grand welcome to the martyrs "homecoming" shows that the motherland will never forget the loveliest people, hundreds of millions of compatriots and people will never forget the loveliest people, and our children and grandchildren will never forget the loveliest people. This is not only a ceremony, but also a constant gratitude, demonstrating the country's responsibility, sending national respect to the predecessors and martyrs, and reflecting the country's supreme respect for the martyrs.

The country will not forget the revolutionary martyrs, and the return of the remains of the volunteers is to always remember their great contributions to the cause of world peace and human progress; It is necessary to bear in mind the profound disasters brought by war to mankind, and to cherish and maintain the hard-won peaceful environment.

The People's Republic of China has strong comprehensive national strength and equal and friendly diplomatic relations. It is also the international community's awe of the Chinese nation. We live in a peaceful country, not an era of peace.

It is realized that life is the soul of the country, and death is the soul of the country.
