	LANDMINES VIETNAM QUANG TRI - The war in Quang Tri
		Quang Tri Town, at that time the Province capital, and Dong Ha Town were both destroyed.
		After the war ended in 1975, the government and the people of Quang Tri Province slowly began to return and attempt to rebuild from the devastation of war.
		Accidents occur while children are walking to and from school or the market; farmers plowing the soil and planting crops; workers digging a well or laying a foundation for a building; scrap metal collectors attempting to dismantle a bomb or shell and sell it on the market for a small amount of cash.

		During the Vietnam War Quang Tri was the site of several fierce battles, in particular the Easter Offensive of 1972.
