Chinese soldiers prepare for massive upcoming WWII commemoration parade
Hundreds of PLA ground force, navy and air force trained for an upcoming World War Two military parade at a military camp in the capital’s northwestern suburb on Wednesday, August 20.
China will stage the massive military parade next month in the heart of Beijing to commemorate 80 years since the end of World War Two following the surrender of Japan, mobilizing tens of thousands of people and showcasing never-seen-before weapons.
The parade, the second such procession since 2015 to observe the formal surrender of Japanese forces in September 1945, will be a show of China's military strength as some of its neighbors and Western nations look on with concern over the projection of power by the People's Liberation Army in recent years.
