Mao Tse-tung and his eldest son Mao An-ying(1922-1950) in the 1940s.
Mao An-ying is uncle of Mao Xin-yu of my last post.

Mao An-ying was killed by a US air raid in the North Korea in 1950.
Mao Xin-yu was said having been involved and killed in a bus accident because the tour was to visit the heroes cemetery of his uncle. Authority says he did not join the tour.
