Overview of the meeting.

45 years ago, in response to the requirements of building the Army and protecting the Fatherland in the new situation, on October 30, 1980, on the basis of the predecessor of the Vehicle Intermediate School, the Automotive Technical Command Officer School, the General Department of Engineering was established. This is an event marking an important milestone in the career of training officers and technical staff of the Military Vehicle - Machinery industry, contributing to building a command and technical force of the Vehicle - Machinery industry to meet the requirements and tasks in the period when the country entered a new transformation period of the Vietnam People's Army.

Representatives of the leaders and commanders of the General Department of Logistics and Engineering presented flowers of congratulations.

After about 10 years of operation under the name of Automotive Engineering Command Officer School, according to the decision of the Ministry of National Defense through many mergers and separations with different names, it is now Military Technical College 1 under the General Department of Logistics and Engineering. Throughout the journey of construction and development, the school has trained hundreds of thousands of students, including thousands of automotive officers and nearly 20,000 military drivers to supplement units throughout the army, meeting the requirements of the task of building and protecting the Fatherland.

Major General Hoang Anh Tuan, Head of the Liaison Committee, spoke.

Delegates attending the meeting.

As a former student of the second course of the Automotive Engineering Command Officer School, Lieutenant General Tran Duy Hung, former Political Commissar of the General Department of Engineering (now the General Department of Logistics and Engineering), said: “In the 1980s, we were high school graduates who passed the university entrance exam and studied and trained at the Automotive Engineering Command Officer School. Right from the first days of entering the school, we received enthusiastic and responsible help from the principal, staff and teachers to stabilize our thinking, organize and quickly receive the content and tasks according to the training program. We were equipped with comprehensive knowledge of the majors, especially the scientific and technical knowledge of the Military Vehicle - Machinery industry. The school staff always considered us as their relatives, their children to educate and guide. This is one of the important motivations for us to actively cultivate and train. The knowledge gained from the school is a valuable asset to help us mature on every step of our military career.”

The Chief of the General Department of Logistics and Technology took a souvenir photo with the newly launched Liaison Committee members.

Every year, veterans organize traditional meetings with activities such as: celebrating longevity, visiting sick members, giving gifts to families with meritorious services, etc.
