The everyday beauty of a Corporal of the Saigon Special Forces is causing a stir.

In the moments recording the training process for the parade celebrating the 50th anniversary of the country's reunification, Corporal Bui Thi Phuong Ngoc of the Saigon Female Special Forces received the audience's attention thanks to her outstanding beauty.

She marched in the Flag Guard position, was noted for her outstanding demeanor, and good manners when walking in the front row.

Sharing with Lao Dong reporter, Phuong Ngoc said that her decision to join the army at the age of 23 surprised her family and friends. Her parents were worried that Phuong Ngoc would not be able to adapt, but later they were both proud and supportive when their daughter carried out her sacred duty to the Fatherland.

Talking about the opportunity to register for military service, the young Corporal expressed: "For a long time, I have had a passion for the green color of the soldier's uniform. Besides, I also have many friends who are soldiers, so my determination to join the army is getting stronger. After graduating from university, I also worked in an office, but as soon as I heard the announcement of recruiting female citizens to perform military service, I registered to participate with the hope that I would be selected. And finally, my dream of becoming a soldier came true.

Discipline is the strength of the army. In this environment, I learned many things from my commanders and teammates. The solidarity and unity in the army made me care for and help people more. After joining the army, I became more courageous, mature and resilient after the training process."

Bui Thi Phuong Ngoc recounted that she was used to a free life outside, was physically weak, and was used to being an MC or working in an office, but she became strong and ready to overcome difficulties after becoming a soldier.

"Participating in the parade to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Liberation of the South and the reunification of the country is an extremely sacred and proud task not only for me but also for my whole family. Although during the training process, we encountered many difficulties because we are women, our health will sometimes not be guaranteed, or because the harsh hot weather can cause us to suffer from heat stroke.

But above all, my teammates and I are always determined to overcome all difficulties and challenges to continue training towards the common mission.

This is a challenge not only for me but also for my friends in the block," Phuong Ngoc said about the training process for the parade.
