On July 29, information from Team K72 (Dong Nai City Military Command) said that it had received results of restoring a collective photo in a collective grave in Minh Duc commune.
Previously, on July 27, expanding the excavation and repatriation of the collective grave area with 4 sets of martyrs' remains, Team K72 discovered many other artifacts, especially including 1 collective photo, but the image and information were faded.
Immediately after discovering the memorial photos in the martyrs' graves, Team K72 sent collaborators in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City to support the restoration of the photos to be clearer and more vivid. Through this, it can help relatives of martyrs, veterans who participated in the anti-American resistance war for national salvation, when they see these photos, will recall memories, hoping to soon find the names of the martyrs whose identities have not been identified.
As of July 27, Team K72 has searched, exhumed and collected 26 sets of martyrs' remains in Binh Minh hamlet, Minh Duc commune.
During the repatriation process, the forces found many artifacts left by the martyrs such as: a pen engraved with the words "Tien Quy" and a pair of pigeons, many ballpoint pens, pencils, cannons, wristwatches, medicated oil bottles, parachute ropes, tanks, AK rifles, magazines...
In particular, the force also found a wallet with many papers, paintings, photos, mirrors and a group photo. But due to the process of lying in the ground for quite a long time, it was blurred and not clear to read the information, and was sent by Team K72 for restoration.
