'''Vo Nguyen Giap''' ({{lahirmati||25|8|1911||4|10|2013}}) adalah Jenderal dan wakil perdana menteri Vietnam. Ia lahir di [[provinsi Quang Binh]], [[Vietnam]]. Dia lulus dari universitas hukum di Hanoi. Dia berhasil dalam pertempuran terkemuka di [[Pertempuran Dien Bien Phu|Dien Bien Phu]] dan [[perang Vietnam]].

Pertempuran Dien Bien Phu (Chiến dịch Điện Biên Phủ) adalah yang terakhir dalam Perang Indochina Pertama antara Prancis dan Viet Minh. Pertempuran ini terjadi antara Maret dan Mei 1954, dan berakhir dengan kekalahan Prancis secara besar-besaran yang akhirnya menyudahi peperangan itu.

Hasil dari serangkaian kekeliruan dalam proses pengambilan keputusan Prancis ialah bahwa Prancis berusaha menciptakan sebuah basis pemasokan lewat udara di Dien Bien Phu, jauh di daerah perbukitan Vietnam. Tujuannya adalah untuk memotong jalur pasokan Viet Minh ke Laos. Sebaliknya, Viet Minh di bawah Jenderal Vo Nguyen Giap, sanggup mengitari dan mengepung Prancis. Pecahlah pertarungan sengit di darat. Viet Minh menduduki daerah perbukitan di sekitar Dien Bien Phu, dan mampu menembak ke bawah secara akurat ke posisi-posisi Prancis. Pasukan Prancis berulang-ulang membalas serangan-serangan Viet Min di posisi-posisi mereka, dengan sesekali menerjunkan pasukan-pasukan tambahan. Namun pada akhirnya Viet Minh berhasil merebut basis pertahanan Prancis dan memaksa Prancis menyerah.
