Hu Dongmin was born on November 22, 1978 in Sijiachang Town. He was a soldier of the Armed Police Ezhou Detachment before his death. On December 6, 2000, in the middle of winter, the north wind was howling. At about 16:45 pm, Hu Dongmin and three comrades took a car back to Songfa to visit relatives. Cross the river. When the boat reached the heart of the river, a middle-aged man suddenly fell into the water. Hearing the call, Hu Dongmin immediately rushed out of the minibus he was in, and without taking off his military uniform, he jumped into the turbulent river and swam quickly towards the drowning person. In the end, because the waves were too big, the river water was biting, and was mercilessly swallowed up by the rushing river water. Eleven days later, the hero's body was salvaged ashore. Today is his 22nd birthday.
After Hu Dongmin's sacrifice, the Ministry of Civil Affairs of the People's Republic of China issued the "Revolutionary Martyr" certificate. The Hubei Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China and the Provincial People's Government held a grand commendation meeting and naming ceremony in the Hongshan Auditorium, posthumously recognizing him as a "heroic warrior who sacrificed himself to save others". He was awarded the title of "Advancing Courageous for Justice" by the Hubei Provincial Courageous Welfare Foundation.(Luo Zhonghong)
