During those difficult years, with the spirit of "Determination to die for the Fatherland", "Nothing is more precious than independence and freedom", generations of young people volunteered to go to the battlefield. Sharing the fighting spirit of the whole country, the people of all ethnic groups in Thai Nguyen province in general and Dai Tu district in particular have always united to fight against foreign invaders, fought bravely and sacrificed, together with the army and people of the whole country to write the glorious history of the nation. Many people have never returned, their flesh and blood have merged with the mountains and rivers. Some people were lucky enough to return home but left part of their bodies on the battlefield or were affected by Agent Orange. There are many children born in peace but suffer many disadvantages, carrying the heavy consequences of war that nothing can compensate for.
