From an early age, he was determined to "follow the Communist Party in the revolution"
Wu Yingming was born in Ningxiang, Hunan In 1932, and when she talks about her childhood, she clearly remembers the days when her father took the family to hide in Tibet. "When the Japanese devils entered the village, burned and looted, and did no evil, my brothers and sisters were all taken away and almost killed." Wu Yingming, who grew up in a turbulent era, deeply felt the greatness of the Communist Party of China in serving the people wholeheartedly, and "under the leadership of Chairman Mao of the Communist Party, it was only after winning the victory in the War of Resistance Against Japan and the War of Liberation and liberating all of China." Because of this, following the Communist Party in the revolution had long taken root in her young soul.
As an adult, she saw many young people around her enthusiastically joining the army, and when she told her family about her ideas, she was firmly opposed by her father. "My father said that I was so thin and small that I couldn't even grab food, so I would take something to be a soldier." Wu Yingming firmly said: I am full of enthusiasm and want to participate in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea and defend my family and country.

"At that time, my friends told me that I must become a soldier and follow the Communist Party." Wu Yingming said that in fact, this is also her inner voice. In 1951, when she was only 19 years old, despite her family's opposition, she took advantage of her father's sleep at night, ran away from home for the first time, wearing a pair of straw shoes, and 3 other good sisters, after a day and a night, came to Xiangtan, Hunan Province, signed up for the army, became a medical soldier, followed the military hospital, and went to Guangzhou to study nursing knowledge assiduously.
Wu Yingming, who had been in the army for less than three months, joined the Guangdong Xingning Field Hospital with a brave and enthusiastic heart to care for the wounded and sick of the volunteer army who had been transferred from the Korean front to the rear. In order to take good care of the wounded soldiers, her courage and courage were no less than those of male soldiers. "At that time, the conditions were very difficult, there were no ready-made hospital beds, we could only go to the pits of ordinary people's homes to take local materials, and at night there was no electricity, so we could only carry chandeliers to see patients." Wu Yingming said that when nursing her wounded comrades on the front line, she strengthened her determination to defend her family and defend the country.
"At that time, the hospital was stationed on the top of the mountain, there was no water in the place where we lived, we had to carry water from the bottom of the mountain to the mountain every day, and in order to take care of the wounded and sick, I had to go to fetch water one after another." Wu Yingming said that the mountain roads are rugged and the terrain in some places is steep, so she disregarded the danger of carrying water to the wounded and sick and tried her best to provide them with medical treatment. "Compared to comrades who shed blood and died on the front line, this is nothing to be bitter about." In her first year as a soldier, she was awarded the third class merit in the army.

In 1956, under the introduction of the instructor, Wu Yingming met Liu Hongen, who was serving in the navy, and married, and in the same year she was transferred to the Yulin base in Hainan with her husband Liu Hongen. Wu Yingming smiled and said, "We sprinkled our youth on Hainan Island. ”
In the Battle of the Paracels in 1974, medical teams needed to be set up to rescue the wounded on the front line. Wu Yingming served as the deputy leader of the rescue team, carried out the rescue work of the war wounded, and in the case of poor conditions, he did bandaging, hemostasis, infusion and other rescue and treatment work for the wounded and sick, and also disposed of the remains of the sacrificial soldiers, often 24 hours a day.
Wu Yingming said that at that time, she was not only a female warrior, but also a mother of four children. "The eldest is in her 10s, and in order to prepare for the war, I had to give up my eight-month-old son, who was nursing," said Wu Yingming, who had to send the children back to her hometown and be cared for by her mother.
Despite the sirens and battles that may come at any time, the difficulties of weather exposure, mosquito bites, and disruption of life and rest, as a female warrior, she still fights on the front line without hesitation and completes various tasks with excellence. "At that time, I didn't know that I was bitter and I didn't feel tired, not just me, but all the female nurses were like this." Wu Yingming said.

"I'm there whenever the organization needs it."
"Promotion in the army is not an easy task, originally I was also one of the eligible ones, but considering that other comrades-in-arms are married and have children and the elderly who need to be taken care of, and the living conditions are more difficult than mine, I took the initiative to give the opportunity for promotion to others, and it does not matter if I wait a few years to adjust." Talking about this matter, Wu Yingming looked so cloudy and light.
In 1980, Wu Yingming returned to the Jiujiang Naval Cadre Rest Center and worked in the medical office. She officially retired in 1989. After retirement, Wu Yingming continued to carry forward the fine work style of the troops, be diligent and thrifty, indifferent to fame and fortune, maintain a positive and sunny mentality towards life, and live a very fulfilling life every day. Insist on reading books and newspapers every day, planting vegetables and raising flowers in her spare time, chatting with neighbors about home, sharing her life feelings, whenever the country is in difficulty, she will always actively donate money and materials.
Today, Wu Yingming's four children have established a family and made a difference. What makes her most proud is that her grandchildren are all college students. Wu Yingming said with emotion, "All this is thanks to the party."
"Every time I went to a place, I wrote a party application and was listed as a target for training to join the party every time, but because of the frequent transfer of work, I did not gloriously join the Communist Party of China until 1964." Wu Yingming said that this year she has been a party for 57 years.
This year is the centenary of the founding of the party, in the face of the party organization issued her the "glorious 50 years in the party" commemorative medal, Wu Yingming said: "I have not done any great achievements, is an ordinary party member, conscientiously do their own work, as long as the organization needs, I am always there." ”
