The volunteer team to search for and collect martyrs' remains in Da Nang was established nearly 20 years ago, starting with 24 members who were veterans and volunteers. Currently, the team is under the Vietnam Association for Supporting Families of Martyrs, with Ms. Nguyen Thi Tinh (born 1970, Lien Chieu Ward) as the team leader.
Over the years, the team has not only carried out tasks domestically but also helped friendly units verify martyrs in Laos and Cambodia; collected 26 martyrs from Attapeu province (Laos) and verified 40 martyrs of Group 559 Truong Son Corps. In addition, thousands of martyrs have been verified, more than 200 martyrs have been brought to local cemeteries for burial, and 9 martyrs are being appraised.
At the end of 2024, the team sent people to join the Nghe An Volunteer Collection Team, Military Region 4, to collect and repatriate the remains of 87 Vietnamese volunteer soldiers who died in Xieng Khouang (Laos) to the old Nghi Loc District Cemetery, Nghe An Province.
