Chen Shentao turns 62 this year. But when the ruthless flood struck again, Chen chose to guard his homeland with practical actions once again under the oath that "if the flood does not recede, he will never leave the embankment".

Xingang town has been one of the hard-hit areas in this summer's flood season. Although Chen has long retired, he decided to join the flood fighting team with his son Chen Jian who works in the local government. The father and son are mainly responsible for guarding the Dongsheng Embankment and assisting the town officials in dealing with flood situations.
