During the resistance war against the US, tens of thousands of Youth Volunteers from Nghe An rushed to the Truong Son fire line. During the years of fierce bombs and bullets, regardless of day or night, Youth Volunteers steadfastly and bravely held their positions on key routes such as Highway 20A, Highway 9 Southern Laos, Military Station 16, Gianh River waterway, etc. On the Truong Son routes, there was no place where Youth Volunteers from Nghe An were not present.

The blood and sweat of tens of thousands of Youth Volunteers from Nghe An over two periods contributed significantly to the Dien Bien Phu Victory (May 7, 1954) and the Great Spring Victory in 1975.
The former Youth Volunteers sadly remembered the Youth Volunteers who heroically sacrificed their lives in the two sacred resistance wars of the nation and vowed to continue to contribute to society and educate their children to live a life worthy of the previous generations to contribute to the development of the country today.
