Korean Central News Agency of DPRK

    Pyongyang, April 12 (KCNA) -- Supreme Commander of the Korean People's Army Kim Jong Il, general secretary of the Workers' Party of�@Korea and chairman of the DPRK National Defence Commission, inspected a sub-unit of KPA unit 980. He went to a firing position to learn about the unit's performance of its duty and its servicepersons' combat readiness. He set forth important tasks which would serve as guidelines in increasing the unit's combat capability in every way, greatly�@pleased to see all its officers and men performing their guard duties in a responsible manner with high vigilance in view of the�@daily intensified moves of the imperialists for aggression.
    He looked round a combined technical lecture room to get familiar with the servicepersons' training.
    He highly praised the unit's servicepersons for working heart and soul to safeguard the defence line of the country as firm as an�@iron wall, noting with appreciation that the unit has prepared its servicepersons as a match-for-a-hundred fighters equipped with a�@high level military technique and combat capability by building an effective technical lecture room and steadily intensifying the�@training.
    He acquainted himself with the unit's management, going round the compound of the barracks.
    Noting that all the units of the KPA have put the combat and political training and their management on the highest level, he�@stressed that this stirring change clearly proves a high level of thinking, morality, culture and traits of the KPA, a�@standard-bearer and main force of the Songun revolution.
    He took deep care of the service and living of the soldiers, looking round an education room, a bedroom, a mess hall, a washroom, a�@daily provision store, barn and other places of the unit.
    He had a photo session with servicepersons of the unit.
    He was accompanied by KPA Generals Ri Myong Su, Hyon Chol Hae and Pak Jae Gyong and Ri Yong Chol, member of the Central Military�@Commission of the WPK and first deputy department director of its Central Committee.
