Pyongyang, October 10 (KCNA) -- General Secretary Kim Jong Il inspected a women's battery of KPA Unit 821. He learned about the battery's performance of duty before watching its soldiers' firepower training. He set forth tasks to be fulfilled by the battery to increase its combat capability, expressing satisfaction over the fact that the servicepersons of the battery are performing their guard duty in a responsible manner with utmost vigilance to cope with the evermore undisguised moves of the enemies for aggression and growing up to be a-match-for-a hundred fighters. Walking in the compound of the barracks, he watched the thick verdure formed by trees of various species. Noting that its soldiers have created a thick woodland and greenery, he praised the women soldiers for having tended even a single tree and a blade of grass of the country with ardent patriotism. He acquainted himself in detail with the soldiers' service and living, going round an education room, a bedroom, a mess hall, a wash-cum-bath house, a non-staple food store and other places. He highly appreciated the assiduous way the servicepersons of the battery have managed its economic life, greatly pleased with the fact that they are living full of revolutionary and militant spirit as required by the slogan "Let us train, study and live like anti-Japanese guerillas!" and have registered great successes in sideline farming, in particular. Saying that the women soldiers standing guard over the country with arms in hands are treasures of the country, he called on the commanding officers of the unit to pay special attention to their living. He had a photo session with the servicepersons of the battery. He was accompanied by KPA Generals Hyon Chol Hae and Ri Myong Su. |
