According to a report released by Chongqing, "While sorting out school history archives, we unexpectedly found the student ID of Yuan Longping during his university years." The memory of Zheng Jinsong, Deputy Director of the Archives of Southwest University, uncovered a dusty past behind the message——
In July 1951, the heroic report team of the Korean Volunteer Army came to Chongqing to give a lecture, with Yuan Longping as a student representative. After listening to the report, his blood boiled and he was deeply inspired. He rushed to the podium, took out his student ID, and asked the battle hero to sign it.
At that time, Ji Bing, a member of the propaganda team and a volunteer soldier, smiled and said, "Everyone signed with notebooks. How did you get your student ID?"
"Yuan Lao once mentioned in his oral autobiography that his biggest characteristic was' freedom and idleness', and he didn't follow the rules in life. Therefore, when he listened to the report, he didn't bring paper and pen like others, but he was very enthusiastic about 'chasing stars', so he just handed over the student certificate he carried with him for his signature." Zheng Jinsong said that this signature accompanied Yuan Longping's college life from then on, and he also had the idea of going to the battlefield and resisting the US and aiding Korea. ".
In 1952, Yuan Longping registered for the Air Force pilot selection and stood out among over 800 registered students, becoming one of the eight college students to be recruited by the Air Force. However, later on, due to his status as a college student, he was not allowed to join the military.
According to China News, Yuan Longping enjoys exercising and swimming. He once ranked in the top four of swimming competitions in the Southwest region and was only one place short of being selected for the national swimming team.
