When was the document that unified our army's name as the "Vietnam People's Army" signed?

The official name "Vietnam People's Army" was unified and used from December 22, 1944, in conjunction with the establishment event of the Vietnam Propaganda Liberation Army Team, founded by leader Ho Chi Minh. This is considered the precursor of today's Vietnam People's Army.

This date also became the Founding Day of the Vietnam People's Army, marking the birth and development of Vietnam's revolutionary armed forces for defending the nation and serving the people. The name clearly reflects its nature as an army of the people, for the people, and by the people fighting for it.

The document unifying the name "Vietnam People's Army" was signed on September 23, 1954, following the signing of the Geneva Agreement, marking the completion of the resistance against the French and ending the war. With this decision, the name change aimed to fully reflect the nature, functions, and role of the military in the mission of national defense, being an army of the people and for the benefit of the people.

This event is also an important milestone in the historical development of the Vietnamese army, marking the process of professionalization and the reorganization of the country's armed forces.

Thus, the document that unified our army's name as the "Vietnam People's Army" was signed on September 23, 1954.
