General Vo Nguyen Giap was born in 1911 in Loc Thuy commune, Le Thuy district, Quang Binh province. He passed away in Hanoi on October 4 last year at the age of 103.
As an eminent disciple of President Ho Chi Minh and the first General and Commander-in-Chief of the Vietnam People’s Army, he led his people to victory over both French and American armies.
With over 80 years serving the nation, he was loved and respected by Vietnamese people and international friends, and is a hero to generations of officers and soldiers nationwide.
