PLA Day (Chinese : 中国人民解放军建军纪念日 ), also known as Army Day , is a professional military holiday celebrated annually by the People's Liberation Army (PLA), the armed forces of the People's Republic of China , on 1 August. It commemorates the founding of the PLA during the 1927 Nanchang Uprising .[1] Communist Party of China (CPC)'s Central Committee for Military Revolutionary Cases voted to declare 1 August an annual holiday, being solidified later on 11 July by the government of the Chinese Soviet Republic .[1]
