April 5, 2015 – “92-year-old KMT veteran in Nanjing honored at last for past battles” (Want China Times)
“This Tomb Sweeping Day, Liu Shouben, a 92-year-old former Kuomintang soldier, can finally tell people about the bloody battles he fought against the Japanese… Liu joined the KMT, or the Chinese Nationalist Party, in the spring of 1942. He fought a guerilla war alongside Communist Party soldiers. However, he never mentioned his past to anyone until 2012, when he was seriously ill in hospital. His three daughters were utterly stunned.”
