[14] The current name, given by Chiang Ching-kuo during his visits to military bases in Kinmen, was adopted in 1960.

[18][19] In January 1985, a Chinese sampan carrying eight fisherman floated onshore the islet after its engine broke down and identified themself as civilians in emergency communication.

[20][21] Searching the sampan later only found a fisher's letter draft to his mother about having collected sufficient yarn to knit a sweater for her to pass the winter.

Then the soldiers were warned not to leak any information and transferred to another post on Kinmen main island.
