The most common field leader, known to most people during the war, was General Giap, who had defeated the French in 1954 at Dien Bien Phu, and then laid seige to the US Marine Base at Khe Sanh in 1968. GEN Giap was not a "guerilla leader", but a high ranking general in the North Vietnamese Army.

General Giap is probably the most well known NVA commander. Apparently VC commanders remained hidden or just weren't that well known. But Giap made a name for himself when he defeated the French in '54 & laid siege to Khe Sahn in '68.
