He affirmed that present troops always treasure, inherit, and bring into play former generations’ traditions, promote unity, and fulfill all missions assigned by the Party, State and people.
On behalf of war veterans in Binh Duong, President of the provincial Association of War Veteran Major General Tran Huu Tai promised that all members will strive their best to be bright examples for later generations to follow and to contribute to building the association into a reliable political organization of the Party committee, authorities, and people.
