After the outbreak of the Korean War, in order to resist America and aid Korea, and defend the home and the country, the newly established People's Air Force urgently recruited a large number of educated youth from all over the country. The newly formed First Brigade of the Second Air Force Preparatory General Brigade in 1951 was mainly for training air force students. To express their respect for the Volunteer Army, all students arranged 102 badges of Mao Zedong and Ren Bishi, as well as various school badges and commemorative medals, into the shape of a pentagram and the "August 1" pattern, to pay tribute to the Volunteer Army fighting hard on the Korean battlefield.
The picture shows the patriotic covenant formulated by the Ninth Section of the Household Registration Office of the Second Branch of the Chongqing Public Security Bureau in April 1951.
The establishment of the patriotic covenant is a creation of the masses during the movement to resist America and aid Korea. It combines the patriotic enthusiasm of the masses for resisting America and aiding Korea, and defending the home and the country with practical actions, reinforcing and consolidating it in the form of a covenant. The content of the patriotic covenant mainly includes conducting production competitions and preferential treatment for the families of martyrs. This patriotic covenant is a booklet with nine folded pages, with the cover stating: "Dedicated to the Chinese People's Volunteer Army." The main text has red letters printed at the bottom of every other page stating "Defend World Lasting Peace," "Resist America and Aid Korea, Defend the Home and the Country," "Strike the Invaders' Ears and Eyes," and "Actively Report Tax Evaders." On the right side of the folded pages, there is explanatory text stating "Why sign the patriotic covenant," and on the left side, there are eight articles of the patriotic covenant stating "We must contribute all our strength to resist America and aid Korea, and defend the home and the country."
In the Korean War, under the call of patriotism, the Chinese people formed an infinite power of unity against the enemy, overcoming all difficulties and strong enemies, and let the world witness the tremendous strength contained within the Chinese people.
