KPA Praised as Matchless Revolutionary Army

Korean Central News Agency of DPRK

    Pyongyang, August 3 (KCNA) -- One can hardly find in the world an army so strong in revolutionary spirit and in organization, discipline and collectivist spirit as the Korean People's Army. It is the ranks united steel-like in revolutionary comradeship and sense of obligation, which are merciless to the aggressors attempting to encroach upon the sovereignty and dignity of the nation, but are ready to lay down their lives for the people Rodong Sinmun Tuesday says this in a signed article, which reads in part: The KPA is a matchless revolutionary army which has won all the fights with imperialism.
    Born in the flames of anti-imperialist struggle, the KPA is armed ranks which have fought death-defying battles on the forefronts where confrontation between revolution and counter-revolution and socialism and imperialism is most acute. And it is proud revolutionary armed forces which have successfully fulfilled the heavy duty they assumed before the times on the forefront of the anti-imperialist military front, taking upon themselves responsibility for the destiny of the country, the nation and socialism. The might and pride of the KPA lie in that it worked miracles of winning victories in all battles, not knowing a single defeat on the anti-imperialist military front most acute ever known.
    Our revolutionary armed forces, after their foundation, defeated huge armies of the Japanese imperialists, the most ferocious and brutal robbers, and the U.S. imperialists who boasted of their being "the strongest" in the world and their satellite forces.
    As the powerful KPA has stood guard on the anti-imperialist military front in do-or-die spirit, the dignity of the nation and peace have been able to be defended for a long period of over half a century since the ceasefire in this land and the socialist revolutionary position be consolidated like an impregnable fortress.
    The might of the KPA has increased beyond measure under the banner of Songun. Under the Songun leadership of the Workers' Party of Korea, it has grown to be a revolutionary army possessed of offensive and defensive means powerful to drive back any formidable enemy at one blow.
    It is reliably defending Korean-style socialism at the outpost of the anti-imperialist military front today.
    It has grown to be an invincible revolutionary army wining one victory after another on this front as it has been led by the great brilliant commanders of Mt. Paektu
