During the fierce years of the resistance war against the US to save the country, National Highway 15A became a strategic traffic route supplying manpower and resources from the large rear base in the North to the battlefield in the South. During the period from 1964 to 1968, Truong Bon - a place on National Highway 15A - became a bomb bag dropped by the US imperialists.

Also here, more than 1,500 cadres and soldiers of 9 Youth Volunteer Companies, belonging to the Youth Volunteer General Team of Nghe An province, held their ground and fought with iron will and determination to smash many air raids by imperialist aircraft, ensuring the smooth flow of traffic.
