According to a KCNA report, as the number of young volunteers for the sacred struggle to defend the country is increasing day by day, more than 1.4 million young people across the country offered to join or rejoin the Korean People’s Army as of March 19.
Gatherings of volunteers took place in all parts of the country day after day.
Every petition pulsated with the pledge of patriotic youth who are filled with confidence in sure victory and determined to deal merciless and crushing blows of punishment to the enemies bringing dark clouds of a nuclear war to the DPRK, impudently clamouring about the “occupation of Pyongyang”, and to take the lead in bringing victory in the great war for national reunification.
Over 950 000 young working people from factories, enterprises and farms have turned out in the fight to devotedly defend their country. In North Phyongan Province alone, more than 180 000 volunteered to join or rejoin the army.
Not only university students but senior middle school students across the country expressed their resolution to join the fight to repulse the aggressors, holding rifles in hands like the members of the Children’s Guard during the Fatherland Liberation War.
