The Truong Son National Martyrs’ Cemetery is the last resting place of over 10,000 soldiers from across Viet Nam. Most of them were from Corps 559 – Truong Son Army Corps and sacrificed on Ho Chi Minh Trail during the resistance war against the U.S.
The PM and his entourage also offered incense and laid wreaths at the Road No.9 National Martyrs Cemetery where more than 10,000 martyrs were buried. They fought in the Road 9 battlefield and in Laos during a campaign of the anti-US war.
The PM expressed his gratitude to the martyrs who devoted their youth to national independence and freedom.
