To mark the 68th anniversary of the victory in the great Fatherland Liberation War, streams of young visitors continue to flow to revolutionary sites and cemeteries of fallen soldiers of the Korean People’s Army as younger generations across the DPRK overflow with deep gratitude and respect for war veterans.

Hearing the explanation about the good deeds performed by members of the Democratic Youth League of North Korea for the victory in the war, including the fact that over 740 000 young men and women volunteered for the front line all at once after listening to the historic radio speech of President Kim Il Sung, visitors to the Victorious Fatherland Liberation War Museum hardened their resolve to give full play to the wisdom and spirit of patriotic youth in the ongoing general onward march.

Visitors to the Fatherland Liberation War Martyrs Cemetery paid tribute to the victors in the great years.

Lots of youths including students visited revolutionary sites across the country including Paeksong and Yuphyong revolutionary sites where the President instilled confidence in victory into the lecturers and students of Kim Il Sung University and KPA service personnel and created new operational plans during the war.

At the cemeteries of the fallen KPA soldiers and patriotic martyrs cemeteries, young people accepted as part of precious spiritual heritage the staunch spirit of devotedly defending the leader, the resolute spirit of defending the country and mass heroism displayed by brave KPA combatants.

Young people held meetings with war veterans in North Phyongan, Jagang and Kangwon provinces, Kaesong City and elsewhere.

Lots of youths visited war veterans to display the admirable trait of taking warm care of their health and life with kindred affection.
