THE BRAVE DEATH SOLDIER AND THE STORY OF 60 DAYS AND NIGHTS OF “DETERMINED TO BRAVE DEATH FOR THE SURVIVAL OF THE FATHERLAND

The tiny house of Colonel Nguyen Trong Ham, former Deputy Chief of Staff of the Capital Military Region (now Hanoi Capital Command), is located deep in a small alley on Hong Ha Street, Long Bien District. Even at 97, he is still very lucid, with grey hair, rosy skin, and a cheerful voice. He passionately told us about Hanoi's "determined to brave death for the survival of the fatherland" days in the winter of 1946.
