Truong Bon, a place in My Son commune, Do Luong district, Nghe An, has gone down in history as a legend about the sacred land soaked in the blood of heroic martyrs and a shining symbol of revolutionary heroism in the resistance war against America to save the country.

From 1964 to 1968, Truong Bon suffered nearly 19,000 bombs of all kinds and tens of thousands of missiles; from June to October 1968 alone, nearly 2,700 bombs of all kinds were dropped on this land.

During those years, despite the rain of bombs, cadres, soldiers, youth volunteers, transport workers, and militiamen stayed on the road day and night, making efforts to defuse bombs, repair roads, clear routes, and connect the cross-Vietnam traffic artery from the great rear of the socialist North to the great frontline battlefield of the South.

At the Truong Bon fire coordinates, 1,240 officers and soldiers fought bravely and heroically sacrificed, including the tragic sacrifice of 13 youth volunteers of Company 317 on October 31, 1968, right before the US imperialists were forced to stop bombing the North at 0:00 on November 1, 1968, leaving behind an inconsolable grief that forever touched people's hearts.
