Habt ihr auch das Grab von Mao Anying, dem ältesten im Koreakrieg gefallenen Sohn von Mao Tse-Tung - das Grab befindet sich etliche Kilometer östlich von Pyongyang - besucht ?
Hier kurz über Mao Anying's Leben aus wikipedia:
Mao Anying was born in an American Christian hospital in Changsha, Hunan Province. His mother, Yang Kaihui was executed by the Kuomintang in 1930. He and his younger brother, Mao Anqing, escaped to Shanghai, where they attended a kindergarten run by the Communist underground. In Shanghai, they lived with Pastor Dong Jianwu (董健吾), who was an Communist party member. ...
In 1936 Anying was brought to Paris by Li Du, from Paris, he was then sent to Moscow where he studied under the pseudonym Xie Liaosha (謝廖沙). He joined the Soviet Army during the Second World War and saw combat in the Eastern European theater. After the war, he returned to China in January 1946, and married Liu Songlin in October 1949.
Korean War: At the outbreak of hostilities in 1950, Mao Anying volunteered for the Chinese People's Volunteer Army. Because Mao Anying was the first son of Mao Zedong, Peng and other senior Chinese leaders were at first unwilling to allow him to fight in Korea. When Mao Zedong was asked to intervene, he refused, saying "He is, after all, the son of Mao Zedong". Mao Anying met up with the army in Shenyang on 8 October and crossed the Yalu River with General Peng Dehuai on October 25.
Anying was stationed in the army headquarter with Peng in caves near an old gold mining settlement, which offered excellent protection from American air attacks. The evening of November 24, 1950, two P-61 Black Widows were spotted on a photo reconnaissance mission by the Chinese on the ground near the location. The next day on November 25 at around noon, a South African Air Force A-26 bomber dropped four napalm bombs, one of which hit a makeshift house near the cave, killing Mao Anying and another officer who were arbitrarily cooking their lunch in violation of war-time regulations of Chinese Army.
Immediately after Anying's death, General Peng Dehuai was afraid to report the incident to Mao. It was not until January 1951 that Mao got word of his son's death through premier Zhou Enlai. According to Mao's private doctor.
