Tran Thi Tam, born in 1950 in Quang Tri Province, played an active role in commune guerrillas starting from May 1965. Despite being arrested and imprisoned by the enemy in April 1966, she persevered and continued her work, joining the Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union upon her release in November 1967.
From 1967 to 1971, Tran Thi Tam participated in numerous battles in her homeland, capturing 869 Americans alive, destroying armored vehicles, planes, enemy cannons, and tanks.
