Associated with the birth and development of the Vietnamese militia and self-defense force, on April 9, 1949, the Ben Giang District Militia Team - the predecessor of the Nam Giang District armed forces was established, trained and matured.
Ben Giang District Militia always fulfills its historical mission in revolutionary periods, contributing worthily to the glorious tradition of the local militia and army, of the homeland and country.
During the resistance war against the invaders to save the country, the cadres and soldiers of the armed forces of Nam Giang district, together with the people of the district and mountainous districts, fought 341 large and small battles, eliminating thousands of enemies from combat.
Many victories changed the revolutionary situation in the mountainous areas such as at Bot-xit and Coong-det posts, completely driving the US and puppet troops out of Nam Giang land; building a solid rear base for the Quang Nam battlefield.
In particular, 60 years ago, responding to the Nguyen Van Troi Campaign launched by Quang Da province, the army and people of Nam Giang defeated the enemy's Coong Zel stronghold. At dawn on April 24, 1965, the US and puppet forces hastily sent dozens of helicopters to Coong Zel to pick up the troops and retreat downstream, marking the day Nam Giang was completely liberated.
The victory on April 24, 1965 was a historical milestone, marking the revolutionary, steadfast, and indomitable spirit of the Co Tu, Ve, and Ta Rieng ethnic groups. Nam Giang became a solid rear base, creating the position and strength for our army and people to continue attacking the US and puppet regime along the entire Quang Nam - Da Nang route, contributing to the great victory of spring 1975, unifying the country.
Along with those years, many shining examples of the heroic and courageous fighting spirit of cadres, soldiers and people such as heroes Po Loong Nhap, A Lang Bin, Ka Pa Huong, Bo Nuoc Do,... contributed to writing golden pages of history, beautifying the flag of "Determination to fight and victory" of the heroic homeland of Quang Nam.
On April 28, 2000, the Party and State awarded the title of Hero of the People's Armed Forces to the cadres, people and armed forces of Nam Giang district.
