The art program depicted the glorious feats of arms of the Vietnam People's Navy during the 70-year journey of fighting, building and growing with historical marks. After the victory of the resistance war against French colonialism, on May 7, 1955, the Ministry of National Defense decided to establish the Coastal Defense Department, with the task of directing troops to defend the coast; training officers, employees, sailors; producing naval tools and equipment. Since then, May 7 has become a glorious milestone of the Navy, starting important victories, protecting the sea and islands of the Fatherland.

Young audience watching the exchange program.

During the resistance war against the US to save the country, the Vietnam People's Navy played a core role in the task of protecting the socialist northern sea and attacking the enemy on the river and sea battlefields of the South. In particular, participating in the 1975 Spring Campaign, the Vietnam People's Navy mobilized the highest force of combat and transport ships to bring nearly 4,000 officers and soldiers to fight and serve in combat, transporting artillery, tanks, and weapons of all kinds from the northern rear to the southern battlefield. In all conditions and circumstances, the officers and soldiers of the Navy always fought bravely and tenaciously, blocking and attacking the enemy from the sea, contributing to creating conditions for infantry units to quickly fight and win, liberate areas, and advance to liberate Saigon in a heroic triumphal song...

Spectacular art performance.

Our country has gone through 80 springs of independence and freedom; 50 springs of the country being united, the North and the South reunited. Sharing in that joy, the Navy also joyfully welcomes the 70th spring since its founding. In the new revolutionary period, the Navy continues to promote the heroic tradition of solidarity, unanimity, and determination to build the Vietnam People's Navy as "revolutionary, disciplined, elite, and modern".
