Kim Jong Un said that our army at all levels should get fully prepared in conformity with the trend of modern warfare by thoroughly implementing and applying the Juche-oriented policy of bringing about a radical turn in training, well aware of the iron truth that much more sweat in the peacetime training leads to less blood in the battlefield.

At the end of the photo session, the passionate guards broke into thunderous cheers of absolute loyalty in token of their will to devotedly defend the Party Central Committee headed by Comrade Kim Jong Un .

Kim Jong Un expressed belief that our army at all levels, directly entrusted with the task of fighting a war as the main force of national defence, would as ever remain faithful to the sacred mission of defending the country, the revolution and the people and reliably guarantee the victorious advance of our country and our cause with the powerful military strength. -0-
