october revolution

October 1st is the national day of the People's Republic of China. It is our "Independence Day". I used to be a red guard like almost everyone else in 1966, and we were called the second generation of the Red China.PRC is founded in 1949, October 1st. Russian Revolution in 1918 is known as "The October Revolution", not to be confused.
The words "Red Guards" really come from the Russian Revolution.
