Gift of guns: The old man adheres to the belief in protecting guns

No way! That's what *** gave me! "In 1981, an elderly man angrily refused to allow his son to hand over his family's submachine gun to the police.

On the same day, the Public Security Bureau of Wenchang City, Hainan Province, received a report that an old submachine gun was wanted to be handed over. The police heard that the firearms were involved and quickly went to deal with them.

As soon as they entered the house, the police heard the old man's angry scolding: "Why don't you discuss with me in advance!" That gun means a lot to me! The old man sat in a wheelchair and held a submachine gun, and said angrily to the police: "No matter who comes, I will not turn it in!" ”

The old man's son comforted him on the side, his eyes full of helplessness.

The police noticed that the submachine gun in the old man's hand, although it was old, was very well maintained. The old man's cherishing of the gun made them feel that this gun must have a special origin.

The police patiently asked the old man about the story of the gun. The old man's eyes flickered, recalling the past twenty years ago.

In 1961, the Vietnam War broke out, and South Vietnam**, supported by the United States, went to war with North Vietnam. We resolutely supported North Vietnam.

The United States had hoped for a quick victory, but the situation turned around when China intervened. The U.S. Air Force bombed our troops and North Vietnamese positions, and our Air Force had limited but stubbornly resisted.

In the air battle, a pilot was shot down, and fishermen spontaneously went to the sea area to search and rescue. The old man's charm is one of them.

They searched the sea for a long time, and although they did not find the pilot, they provided support to the front line.

One day, Fu Qihe heard the sound of falling, spotted an American pilot, and handed him over to the military. **After perceiving, invite him to Beijing and give him a submachine gun.

When the old man returned home, he cherished the gun, but his son had to hand it in, causing a dispute.

After hearing the story, the police expressed respect and promised to let the old man continue to keep the gun.

On his deathbed, the old man instructed his son to donate the submachine gun to the museum to commemorate that period of history.

To this day, the gun is on display in the local military museum, bearing witness to that period of history.
