Commemorating this day, we cannot help but mention the martyrs of the electricity industry. During the war against the US alone, 131 officers and workers of the Electricity industry, including 17 martyrs of the Vinh Power Plant, fell, contributing to ensuring that the electricity would never be cut off in the Soviet homeland of Nghe Tinh.
