| According to Mrs. Lo Thi Loi (Ngo's grandmother), since childhood, Ngo did not receive love, care and education from his parents like his peers. When he was only 1 year old, his mother left because her husband was a drug addict. After a while, his father also got into trouble with the law, so he has lived with his grandparents since then. Although the family's circumstances were difficult, both his grandparents were old, but they still tried to work hard to support Ngo's education. Photo: Dinh Tuan |

| In 2012, my grandfather passed away, and life, which was already difficult, became even more difficult. After my grandfather passed away, my grandmother's health also declined, but every day she still had to go to the fields to pick bamboo shoots and dig up cassava to sell to earn money to support the two of them. Realizing the situation of the two of them, Ngo studied very hard. Thanks to that, from grade 1 to grade 12, she was an advanced and excellent student. After each school hour, Ngo always helped her grandmother with housework. Photo: Dinh Tuan |

| Mrs. Lo Thi Loi said: My grandchild has suffered since childhood, so I want him to have a brighter future, not as dark as his father. I want him to join the army to both train his moral qualities, improve his physical strength and learn a trade. So since the commune's announcement, I have called him every day to encourage him to come back and write an application to join the army. Vi Luong Ngo shared: “I also want to finish 12th grade and then take the entrance exam to a college or university to study like my friends. However, my grandmother is old and no longer has enough strength to go to the fields every day to pick bamboo shoots and dig cassava, so where will she get the money to support my education? Moreover, since I was little, my grandmother always said that my grandfather was a soldier and was respected by the whole village, so I have to look at that and strive. After writing a volunteer application and going through many strict screening steps, I was accepted. When I heard the news of my admission, I was very happy, proud and honored. I promised to be determined to train well to be worthy of being Uncle Ho's soldier like my grandmother wanted.” Photo: Dinh Tuan |
