In Tiananmen Square, a five-star red flag is raised with the sunrise every day. The soldiers of the national flag guard team of the Chinese People's Liberation Army Honorary Brigade are honored to carry out the flag-raising mission. They showed the style of Chinese soldiers with firm and neat steps and majestic and upright posture, and became a bright business card of the Chinese army.
At 4 a.m., a loud command came from the road on the north side of the Forbidden City Terminal Gate. The officers and soldiers of the National Flag Guard Team of the People's Liberation Army's Honorary Guards began training before raising the flag on time.

The National Flag Guard Team of the People's Liberation Army of China Zhang Tianlong: Our daily flag-raising team is a square of 66 people. On the 1st of each month, the number of people has increased to 96 people. 30 guards are arranged on both sides of the Jinshui Bridge, and the military band also plays the national anthem on the spot.

In front of Tiananmen Square, starting from the south side of Jinshui Bridge, the members of the National Flag Guard walked out of the amazing Chinese rhythm with strong and powerful steps: 75 cm each step, not bad at all, and sonorously. In response to extreme and severe weather, after rigorous training, the officers and soldiers need to reach high wind conditions of level 8 or above to ensure that the team moves steadily, maintain the sonorous rhythm of the team in the pouring rain, and insist on the uniformity of the team in the heavy snow.

The National Flag Guard Team of the People's Liberation Army Honorary Guard Jiang Runze: In our eyes, the national flag is more important than life and above everything. We integrate our love for the motherland and the national flag into our blood, defend the dignity of the national flag with the most high-spirited mental state and first-class action standards, safeguard the national image, and gather the forging power of hundreds of millions of Chinese people.
The national flag is in hand, and the heavy responsibility is on shoulders. The five-star red flag has been flying in Tiananmen Square for more than 70 years, and has always maintained a record of "zero mistakes and zero mistakes" in the lifting and lowering flags.

The flag-raising master Wang Haotian often carries long poles on his shoulders, and hangs a water-filled kettle on the poles, and trains to "hold the flag" along the central axis. The flagpole and national flag weigh nearly 30 kilograms, and the flagpole is 3.81 meters long, and it cannot tremble during marching regardless of any situation.

The National Flag Guard Team of the People's Liberation Army Honorary Guard Brigade Wang Haotian: No matter how bad the weather is, no mistakes can occur. Each national flag lifting task must be completed with high standards and strict requirements.
Every day, when you see tourists from all over the world coming to Tiananmen Square on a moonlight, just to see the solemn and sacred flag-raising ceremony, the team members will feel a strong sense of pride.

The National Flag Guard Team of the People's Liberation Army Honorary Guard Jin Xin: In the morning, we face the morning light and shine the first ray of morning light on our national flag, proving that our country's thriving day has begun.
