Dien Bien Phu - Resounding victory
As the first decisive battle of the Vietnamese Armed Forces since its establishment in December 1944, the Dien Bien Phu victory puts an end to the 9-year resistance war against the French colonialists and American intervention. The battle represents the defeat of the "Nava plan" and resulted in the signing of the Geneva Agreement on a ceasefire in Vietnam in July 1954.
