December 3 was the day for the demobilized veterans of a unit under the Nanjing Military Area Command stationed in Fujian Province to leave the military barracks.

On December 3, when the veterans of a unit stationed in the Tibet Autonomous Region were demobilized, the Tibetan old aunt came with her family to present the white hada to the veterans.
