Kim Jong Un made a meaningful speech for all the service personnel of the KPA greeting the Day of Army Founding.
He proudly reviewed the proud history of the People's Army which has recorded the glorious tradition, brilliant victory and shining epic of honor since the day when the shouts of the army founding broke out, and extended noble tribute and warm congratulations to all the officers and men of the DPRK armed forces who have defended the strong breathing of the ever-victorious Korean revolution with matchless military muscle and costly sacrifice and upheld the invincibility and mightiness of our state.
He expressed belief that the KPA, the armed forces of the WPK and the vanguard of the class, would brilliantly defend the dignity and greatness of the powerful country and people with the irresistible strength peculiar to it by invariably inheriting the red soul, the noble mission, the staunch revolutionary spirit and the fighting spirit of death-defying resistance cherished by the first generation of the revolution with arms.
Upon hearing his passionate speech that gives them the boundless pride of having bravely advanced under the leadership of the WPK and further hardens their revolutionary will to remain loyal to the WPK forever, the general officers raised stormy cheers of "Hurrah!" in reflection of their pledge of faith to firmly carry forward the sacred traditions peculiar to our People's Army.
