During the period against French colonialism and American imperialism, the communal house was the place where many historical events of the locality took place. In 1960, at Phu Coc communal house, there was an ambush of our army, which caused many puppet soldiers to be injured and killed, and our army sacrificed a second lieutenant named Phan Lang - a local.
