Kim Jong Il Inspects KPA Unit
Pyongyang, November 4 (KCNA) -- General Secretary Kim Jong Il inspected KPA Unit 2200 and watched a military training of its servicepersons.

He learned about the unit's performance of duty and fulfillment of its training program before mounting an observation platform to watch the military training of its soldiers.

After watching the training of its soldiers fully armed with the WPK's Juche-oriented combat methods, he was greatly satisfied to see all of them fully prepared politically and ideologically and physically and in military technique to be capable of beating back any surprise attack of the enemy in time and firmly defending the socialist motherland.

He highly praised them on their successes in training and put forward highly important tasks which would serve as guidelines for bolstering up the heroic Korean People's Army as invincible revolutionary armed forces.

The KPA, a creditable successor to the glorious traditions of the anti-Japanese struggle, has grown to be an army strong in idea and faith as it regards it as its unshakable creed to display the spirit of devotedly defending the leader, the spirit of becoming human bullets and bombs and the self-blasting spirit, he said, stressing that our socialist motherland is impregnable and its revolutionary cause is sure to triumph as it has the matchless great army which has been steeled in the more than seven decade-long protracted and arduous struggle.

He met the soldiers who participated in the training and gave warm pep-talk to them before having a picture taken with them.

He was accompanied by KPA Generals Hyon Chol Hae, Ri Myong Su and Kim Myong Guk and other commanding officials of the KPA.
