On March 13, 1954, the Vietnamese revolutionary army began its first attack on the heavily fortified base of Dien Bien Phu, starting a significant 56-day campaign. This victory directly led to the signing of the Geneva Accords, bringing an end to the war and restoring peace in Indochina.
The parade highlights the importance and historical value of the Dien Bien Phu victory and the development of the Vietnam People's Army.
The Air Force's practice attracts a lot of local residents.
