Fallen soldier’s family receives gratitude house
PANO - Division 968 under the Military Region 4, in association with the local authorities in Gio Mai district, Quang Tri province on September 19, handed over a gratitude house to Truong Huu Em's family in Mai Xa village.
Truong Huu Em is the son of martyr Truong Huu Mat who sacrificed himself during the anti-American resistance war. With the deep concern of leaders at all levels, the family of Truong Huu Em was supported with VND 70 million from the gratitude fund of Ministry of National Defense. Officers, soldiers and staff of the unit also contributed 150 work days for the house construction.
After three month of construction, the 60sq.m house with four rooms was completed.
This is a practical and meaningful activity demonstrating the people's morality “When drinking water, remember its source” and the deep gratitude of the Party, the State and the Army for the national contributors.
On the occasion, the 968 Division and local agencies also presented some essential household utensils to the family.
