On the day that the world was watching China's military parade marking the 70th anniversary of the war against Japan, an American family was accepting a prestigious medal from President Xi Jinping at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing on behalf of a U.S. Army commander who fought alongside Chinese soldiers against the Japanese.

"Any nation with hope cannot be without heroes, and any country with promising prospects cannot be without pioneers," Xi said.
