This event not only contributes to strengthening the solidarity between the two units but also has special significance on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the Vietnam People's Army - a symbol of patriotism, fighting spirit, and noble international spirit.

The soccer and volleyball matches are not only a playground for physical training but also demonstrate the spirit of friendship and solidarity between international forces. This is an opportunity for Vietnamese soldiers to continue spreading the humanitarian and peaceful values ​​that the Vietnam People's Army has always pursued over the past 8 decades.

The exchange activities have affirmed the image of a friendly, responsible Vietnam, always actively contributing to peace and stability around the world. It is also a way for Vietnamese "blue beret" soldiers in South Sudan to honor the glorious tradition of the army and the country, continuing to leave a deep impression in the hearts of international friends.

The Level-2 Field Hospital Rotation 6 consists of 63 members, all of whom have been thoroughly trained in political, military, logistical, technical, and medical expertise, as well as peacekeeping knowledge, meeting all UN criteria and mission requirements.
