In March 1938, he joined the Communist Party of China (CPC) with his uncle Suo Yuanli. In the same year, under the call of "defending Wuhan", in order to save the country, Suo Liangmin resolutely joined the army and threw himself into the war against the Japanese invasion of Henan.

At that time, Zhang Zhaofang, an underground member of the Communist Party of China who had been in single-line contact with Suo Liangmin, took Suo Liangmin to the wheat field outside the south gate of Zhengzhou. In order to ensure safety, Zhang Zhaofang told Suo Liangmin that party constitution was buried underground in the western suburbs and dared not take it. He could only tell Suo Liangmin about party constitution and the party’s discipline. Later, Suo Liangmin said, "Join communist party voluntarily, abide by communist party’s discipline, and never betray the party."
After the founding of New China, due to the lack of organizational relations in the earliest archives, Suo Liangmin’s identity has not changed from "Special party member" to "Communist party member". This matter has become a knot in his heart and he can’t let it go. After retirement, Suo Liangmin lived in a pension apartment. In 2013, when collecting information in party member, Suo Liangmin found Ma Jianxun, Party Secretary of the Pension Apartment, and told him his heartfelt wishes. In April, 2014, Ma Jianxun got the approval from the higher party organization, and finally helped Suo Liangmin realize his 66-year wish.
"Veterans can still fight today, and build meritorious deeds to repay the party."
An identity, Suo Liangmin waited for 66 years, and in these 66 years, although there was no official party member’s identity, Suo Liangmin still did not change his mind, always demanding himself as a Communist party member, and never gave up his faith.
At the time of housing distribution in the unit, Suo Liangmin, who had a high degree and a senior engineer title, gave up his house of more than 100 square meters and still lived in his house of more than 30 square meters. Not only that, Suo Liangmin also actively participated in various non-profit organizations, and used all his savings of more than 100,000 yuan for poverty alleviation and public utilities construction. Suo Liangmin said: "The country has given me too many honors, but I have done very little. I only have a down-to-earth attitude, Do not forget your initiative mind. "
