Veteran searches for old friends via bus ad

Brotherhood forged during hard times can be memorable for a lifetime.

An 89-year-old veteran put up advertisements on a bus on Aug 7 in Jinan, capital city of East China's Shandong province, in an attempt to find fellow veterans who fought in the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression (1937-1945), chinanews.com reported.

"My brother, where are you?" say the five striking Chinese characters written on the bus advertisement. The ad also includes Yuan's photo and name, which he said he hopes will lead to finding his buddies so they can reminisce about their experience ahead of the 70th anniversary of the end of World War II.
