Army Corps 12 gathers Truong Son soldiers
PANO - Army Corps 12 (Truong Son Construction Corporation) of the Ministry of National Defense on May 17 held a gathering for veterans of the Truong Son Army Corps and relatives of fallen Truong Son soldiers, Vietnamese heroic mothers, and heroes of the People's Armed Forces.
During the national resistance war against US invaders, Truong Son soldiers, volunteer youths, and civilians overcame numerous difficulties and hardships to build the legendary Truong Son Trail, contributing to completely liberating the South, and unifying the country. That glorious tradition has still been upheld by troops of Army Corps 12 (successor of Truong Son Arm Corps) in the current context.
