Army Day Special: Chinese military becoming more transparent?

Editor's note: China's Army Day falls on Aug 1 annually, commemorating the anniversary of the founding of the Chinese People's Liberation Army in 1927. To mark this year's Army Day, we focus on efforts to make the military more transparent.
