Pyongyang, July 21 (KCNA) -- During the Fatherland Liberation War (June 25, 1950 - July 27, 1953), President Kim Il Sung took legendary measures, unprecedented in the world history of wars, to encourage the servicepersons and civilians of the DPRK to victory in the war.
In January Juche 41 (1952), he told an official that the People's Army soldiers from universities should be recalled from the front to continue their study. Noting that it is not so easy to recall many servicepersons from the front when the war is at its height, he said that we do not hesitate to send them back to their universities.
Thus, such legendary event took place that a large number of servicepersons were recalled from the war front to school.
Early in January 1951, the President instructed officials to make good preparations for rehabilitating Pyongyang City.
A few days later, he summoned a designer to the Supreme Command and assigned him to a task for mapping out the master plan for the reconstruction of Pyongyang. When the blueprint was prepared, he repeatedly examined and guided it to completion.
Those in a meeting of world architects held in Warsaw of Poland in 1952 were deeply moved to see the said master plan displayed at the meeting and hear the story about it.
In the period of the war, the President also took a series of such significant steps as the enforcement of free medical care system, the operation of front-line rest homes for servicepersons and the foundation of factory colleges, a study-while-working educational system, measures that could be done only by the great brilliant commander with deep trust in the people and firm confidence in the war victory.
The steps served as the dynamics that made the servicepersons and civilians fully display their matchless bravery and popular heroism to accelerate the war victory.
