Between 1963 and 1975, the Southern Liberation Army Newspaper served as a sharp tool in the ideological and political front. It contributed to orienting thoughts of soldiers and residents, transmitting combat strategies and orders of the former South Liberation Armed Forces Command to military units and people, and reflecting victories of troops and people in the region.

Meanwhile, the Military Uniform and Gear Factory, established in 1961, also tried its best to produce and ensure military uniforms and combat gears for liberation soldiers.

At the ceremony, delegates reminisced stages of development and achievements of the three units during the resistance war.

Authorized by the State President, Vice Admiral Tran Hoai Trung, MR7’s Political Commissar, handed over the title “Hero of the People’s Armed Forces” to those units.
