Sina.com reported on August 4 that newly recruited soldiers of a border defence regiment of the Xinjiang Military Region visited the Kangsiwa Martyrs Cemetery, the highest altitude cemetery in the whole army, to have a special party class. The soldiers paid tribute to the heroes and vowed to guard the great rivers and mountains.

(Comment: Kangxiwa is the same Martyrs Cemetery where the soldiers killed in the Galwan Incident were cremated, and also others who participated in the 1962 War.)
