     High school students dressed in uniforms march on Tiananmen Square to stand at guard posts of Young Pioneers, a youth group under the Communist Party of China, around the Monument to the People's Heroes on Tiananmen Square in Beijing, May 29, 2014. Elite members of youth Communist groups in schools are organized to guard the posts as a nationalistic and party loyalty education. A quarter century after the Communist Party’s attack on demonstrations centered on Tiananmen Square on June 4, 1989, it is little more than a distant tale to young Chinese. Alexander F. Yuan/AP

   People's Liberation Army (PLA) soldiers march near their rifles before an honor guard performance for a welcome ceremony outside the Great Hall of the People near Tiananmen Square in Beijing, June 3, 2014. China allows no discussion of the events of June 3-4, 1989, when soldiers accompanied by tanks and armored personnel carriers fought their way into the heart of the city, killing hundreds of protesting citizens and onlookers.
