And historically, military awards have Collect value . To collect military MEDALS, we should understand the military characteristics of each historical period in advance, and understand the process of its development and evolution, and then he combed through it in detail.
On the origin, the Chinese People's Liberation Army awarded MEDALS from the agrarian revolutionary War period. The most famous is the order issued by the Central Revolutionary Military Commission of the Chinese Soviet in 1933, proposing to issue the Red Star Medal on the anniversary of the founding of the Army on August 1. According to the size of the merit, it is divided into one, two and three grades. From the type point of view, during the Anti-Japanese War, hundreds of MEDALS and commemorative MEDALS were issued to the troops in each theater. In addition to copper and silver, the seals of this period were made of silver, copper, iron, film and photographic paper. Under the leadership of the Communist Party of China, the Eighth Route Army, the New Fourth Army and the troops in the anti-Japanese base areas carried out the selection of hero models with combat, production and mass work as the main content, and issued such badges as the Eighth Route Army's "Honorary soldier Commemorative medal", the Jinzhong Military Region's "May Day" medal, and the "Badge of the Army's 18th Group Army Headquarters". In addition, the Shan-Gansu-Ningxia Border region government seal and so on are rare precious cultural relics in this period.
The period from August 1945 to September 1949 was the National War of Liberation. In this period, there appeared new characteristics of the badges: first, the appearance of the battle as the main name of the badges, such as Taiyuan campaign MEDALS and commemorative MEDALS, Huaihai Campaign commemorative MEDALS and so on; Second, many MEDALS have the same or similar shape, but the main body of the award is different, such as the battle hero medal of the Northeast Democratic Allied Army;
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the awarding of MEDALS by the Chinese army gradually became unified. On January 21, 1952, in order to strengthen the leadership of the Meritorious Service model movement and unify the award work of the entire army, the People's Revolutionary Military Commission of the Central People's Government promulgated the Regulations on the Work of Meritorious Service and Award of the Chinese People's Liberation Army (Draft), which determined that before the Central People's Government issued national MEDALS and MEDALS, The first unified issue of war service MEDALS, honor MEDALS, hero MEDALS, and model MEDALS, respectively awarded to a variety of meritorious achievements and selected as hero models. In 1955, when the system of military ranks was first introduced, the August 1 Medal and Medal, the Medal and Medal of Independence and Freedom, and the Medal and medal of Liberation were awarded respectively to meritorious members of the Chinese People's Liberation Army who participated in the revolutionary War during the period of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army, the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, and the War of Liberation. In 1988, the military rank system was restored, and the Central Military Commission of the People's Republic of China awarded MEDALS of Merit and honor to demobilized cadres of the People's Liberation Army who enlisted or participated in revolutionary work during the revolutionary War.
The medal system of the Chinese People's Liberation Army is an important system for the revolutionary and regularized construction of the army, and it is also an integral part of the national award system.
