Comrade Nguyen Dinh Hieu has a difficult family situation, his parents are old and weak, his wife does not have a stable job, and his two children are still young. The family currently lives in a dilapidated house built in 1986, which is often flooded during the rainy season.

Faced with that situation, the 414th Engineer Brigade requested the Ministry of National Defense to allocate 80 million VND from the “Fund for the Poor” to support the construction of a Comrades’ House for Comrade Hieu’s family. In addition, the 414th Engineer Brigade also supported some facilities and all working days with Comrade Hieu’s family to build the house.

The house is expected to be completed on the occasion of the August Revolution and National Day on September 2. This is a great source of encouragement for Comrade Hieu's family to stabilize their lives and strive to complete all assigned tasks.
