The person mentioned is Ms. Ngo Thi Hue, born in 1942 in Da Nang .
Born into a poor family with a revolutionary tradition, Ms. Ngo Thi Hue was enlightened about the revolution from a young age. At the age of 10, she joined a children's organization to guard, deliver letters, and communicate with cadres. After that, she participated in activities at the Da Nang City Working Group, serving the task of grasping the situation.
During her years of activism, Ms. Hue was arrested dozens of times by the enemy but then released because no information could be extracted. She once said that she had withstood all the savage attacks of the enemy, from electric torture to having lime water poured on her.
More brutally, they gave two republican soldiers alcohol and took turns humiliating them. She resisted fiercely, preventing them from committing their evil acts. In anger, the two soldiers turned to beat her with their spiked boots. It was after that brutal beating that the heroine Ngo Thi Hue - at that time still an innocent girl in her twenties, who had never been in love - permanently lost the ability to be a mother.

In 1963, right after being released from prison and recovering from her injuries, Ms. Hue joined the Intelligence Team (Quang Da Security Department). The job of an intelligence officer required gathering information, understanding the enemy situation, transferring important documents... so she had to transform into many roles: sometimes a country girl, sometimes a flirtatious and seductive enemy soldier, sometimes a drug-smoking merchant.
The female spy once said that any object could be used as a tool to track and avoid the enemy. For example, when she was on the road, if she discovered enemies in the distance and wanted to follow them, she would often take out her makeup box. One side contained makeup powder, the other side contained a mirror to monitor the enemies behind, see what they were doing, and at the same time find a way to deal with them.
Or the sunglasses with plastic frames and glass lenses that she always carried with her. When worn, they would change the shape of her face, making it difficult for the enemy to detect her during her activities. To maintain secrecy in her intelligence work, she often wore ao dai as a schoolgirl or a soldier's wife.
In early 1969, during a mission to the base, Mrs. Nguyen Thi Hue was injured by an enemy bomb, with metal fragments still in her head, and was taken to the North for treatment. Her two brothers and sister died, and her father also died due to a relapse of his injuries. The mental pain and the after-effects of the bomb fragments tormented Mrs. Hue, causing her to have frequent epileptic seizures.
After the liberation, Mrs. Hue returned to her hometown to work and retired in 1993 with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. Her husband, Mr. Tran Viet Tri, was also a former patriotic prisoner and a widower. Unable to become a mother, she raised her husband's two sons.
For her contributions to the revolutionary cause, she was awarded the title of Hero of the People's Armed Forces by the State during the resistance war against America to save the country.
