   Pyongyang, November 8 (KCNA) -- General Secretary Kim Jong Il inspected a sub-unit of KPA Unit 479.
    He was accompanied by KPA Generals Hyon Chol Hae and Ri Myong Su and First Vice Department Director of the WPK Central Committee Ri Yong Chol.
    After acquainting himself with the sub-unit's performance of duty, he watched its soldiers in training. He expressed satisfaction over the fact that all the servicepersons of the sub-unit have grown to be a-match-for-a hundred fighters with high combat capacity through their intensive training and set forth the tasks to be fulfilled to increase its combat capability.
    It is the primary revolutionary task for the servicepersons to train well, he said, stressing the need to always pay primary attention to the work to thoroughly implement the training program.
    Then, he paid deep attention to the service and living of the soldiers, going round an educational room, a bed room, a mess hall, a non-staple food store, a wash-cum-bath house, an outdoor resting place, a barn and other places of the sub-unit.
    He highly praised the sub-unit for leading a tenacious economic life, pleased with the fact that it has not only successfully built cultural and educational and supply service facilities by thoroughly managing the unit the way the anti-Japanese guerrillas did but also splendidly conducted the sideline job to make its life abundant.
    Looking round the compound of the barracks under trees laden with red persimmons and feasting his eyes on the mountain ridges covered with chestnut trees, he praised the commanding officers and soldiers of the sub-unit for having successfully spruced up their post, adding that this is one of the beautiful traits which can be displayed only by the KPA soldiers who ardently love the country.
    He posed for a photograph with the servicepersons of the sub-unit.
