Seven Vietnamese soldiers who had joined the Soviet Union Red Army and fought alongside Russian comrades in the Great Patriotic War now have their profiles included in the database of the ‘memorial road’ museum complex, in the suburbs of Moscow, according to CPV.
They include Le Phan Chan, born in 1900 in Hanoi; Dinh Truong Long, born in 1910 in Thanh Hoa; Vuong Thuc Thoai, born in 1910 in Nghe An; Vuong Thuc Lien, born in 1903 in Nghe An; Hoang The Tu, born in 1910 in Nghe An; Nguyen Sinh Than, born in 1908 in Nghe An; and Ngo Chi Thong, born in 1910 in Ha Tinh.
Of which, Le Phan Chan, Vuong Thuc Thoai, Vuong Thuc Lien, Hoang The Tu and Nguyen Sinh Than were conferred the first class Order of the Patriotic War by the Supreme Soviet Presidium on December 12th, 1986. They were also awarded posthumously the “Forty Years of Victory in the Great Patriotic War 1941-1945” medal.
Based on the initiative of President Ho Chi Minh, in 1926, some Vietnamese patriotic youngsters were sent to the Soviet Union for study. When the Second World War began, they decided to join the Red Army and most of them died in battle protecting Moscow in 1941.
The honoring of Vietnamese soldiers in the Great Patriotic War of Russia does not only record their life contribution to the efforts to fight fascism, but it is also clear evidence for the long-term solidarity and friendship between Vietnam and Russia./.
