The Liaison Committee of the Women's Battalion of the Truong Son Provincial Army met to celebrate the 50th anniversary of joining the army.

On August 27, at the Provincial Military Command, the Liaison Committee of the Women's Battalion of the Truong Son Provincial Army held a meeting to celebrate the 50th anniversary of enlistment (August 27, 1973 - August 27, 2023).

At the meeting, female soldiers of Truong Son province reviewed together the tradition of female soldiers of Truong Son and memories of their military service.

Fifty years ago, 500 Ninh Binh girls, only eighteen or twenty years old, volunteered to join the fight to protect the Fatherland and were assigned to the Women's Battalion of the Truong Son Army in Ninh Binh province.

During their military service, the Women's Battalion of Truong Son Army in Ninh Binh province participated in many important missions: Fighting in the Southern battlefield, participating in the 1975 Spring Campaign; breaking rocks to open roads, contributing to the creation of the legendary Ho Chi Minh trail...

Having gone through many bombs and bullets from the enemy along with countless hardships, but with the will and determination of Uncle Ho's soldiers, the women have strived to overcome to complete the mission, contributing significantly to the liberation of the South and the reunification of the country. During the fighting, many women were injured and sacrificed, many were awarded the title of Determined to Win Soldier and joined the Party.

After completing their duty to the Fatherland, they returned to their localities, continued to promote the qualities of Uncle Ho's soldiers, fulfilled their civic responsibilities, actively participated in socio-economic development, and contributed to building their homeland and country.

The Liaison Committee of the Truong Son Women's Battalion of Ninh Binh Province was officially established in 1998. Currently, the Liaison Committee has 19 members. After 25 years of operation, the Liaison Committee has actively connected and helped members in difficult circumstances, shared joys and sorrows in life, and become a bridge connecting the former female soldiers of the Truong Son Army closer together.

On this occasion, the Liaison Committee gave many gifts, encouraging members with difficult circumstances and serious illnesses to strive to improve their lives.
