    Legendary Hard Bone 6th Company

    To all members a couple of years ago I read the book "China's Military Faces The Future". It gave a very brief record of service of a General Fu Quanyou chief of the General Staff during the Jaing Zemin administration and that he was the commander of a unit called "Hard Bone 6th Company". What are the details and history of this unit? And is the Hard Bone a larger unit or is this company just nicknamed Hard Bone? Any info would be greatly appreciated.
