A woman holds a photo as she looks for the soldier in the photo who rescued her relative (the child in the photo) from the Sichuan earthquake, during a farewell ceremony at a railway station in Mianyang, Sichuan province August 14, 2008. Chinese troops began withdrawing from the quake-hit province of Sichuan from July, as rescue work shifts to reconstruction more than two months after the tremor killed at least 70,000 people. China mobilised 130,000 troops and armed police in the weeks following the May 12 earthquake. The first group of 40,000 began pulling out on the orders of President Hu Jintao, who also chairs the Central Military Commission. The Chinese characters on the photo read "Brother soldier, where are you". REUTERS/Stringer (CHINA)
