Bocun Elementary School

1958年由砲兵部隊興建於料羅灣,以日後成為國家領導人的郝柏村將軍命名——金門「戰地學校」的代表。

About · 學校簡介

Built by artillery troops, opened under fire.

Bocun Elementary was directly ordered built in 1957 by Kinmen Defense Commander General Hu Lien, at Liaoluo Bay. Construction began on January 4, 1958, led by artillery units, was completed that April, and the school was inaugurated on May 17, 1958, in a ceremony jointly presided over by four generals. It was named after then-Artillery Command commander Hao Bocun, who later became ROC Premier and Chief of the General Staff. The school's opening was delayed later that year by the fierce August 23 Artillery Bombardment, and classes could only begin once the shelling eased in 1959. When General Hao Bocun died in 2020 at age 101, students and staff held a memorial service in his honor.

柏村國小由金門防衛司令官胡璉將軍於民國46年(1957年)下令興建,校址位於料羅灣。民國47年(1958年)1月4日由砲兵部隊動工興建,同年4月完工,5月17日舉行落成典禮,由四位將軍共同主持。學校以時任砲兵指揮官郝柏村之名命名,郝柏村日後曾任行政院長與參謀總長。同年爆發的八二三砲戰延後了學校的開學,直到1959年砲擊趨緩後才得以正式上課。2020年郝柏村將軍以101歲高齡辭世時,全校師生為其舉行追思會。

Bocun is perhaps the most direct military-history school on Kinmen — literally built by artillery troops during active fortification of the island and named for a commander who became a national ROC leader, with its opening itself delayed by the 823 Artillery Bombardment.
