Pyongyang, December 23 (KCNA) -- The Korean revolution was pioneered and has been carried forward along with the spirit of devotedly defending the leader. From the beginning of the revolution it had been the supreme task of the Korean nation to devotedly defend President Kim Il Sung, the lodestar and future of the nation. Kim Jong Suk, an anti-Japanese heroine who set out on the revolution in her early years, dedicated her all without hesitation to the President's personal safety and health, deeply aware of an important mission history entrusted to the times and nation. During the anti-Japanese armed struggle, she protected him from danger, risking her life, in hundreds of fierce battles including the Hongqihe and Dashahe Gully battles. The lofty example she set in defending the leader at the cost of her life is still remembered by the Korean people. She also prepared meals for the President without fail even in a series of fierce battles and hard march and made overcoat, waistband and socks with silk cotton and woolen yarn for him. Her life as a lifeguard and soldier continued in the liberated country. When the president started on a long inspection tour, she inquired of meteorological observatories the weather, grasped road conditions, told his bodyguards about matters needing special attention and made preparations to ensure his personal safety in any situation. Following her example, the slogan "Let us defend with our very lives the leadership of revolution headed by the great Comrade Kim Jong Il!" has become a symbol of the faith of the Korean People's Army and many units have been honored with the title of O Jung Hup-led Seventh Regiment, which distinguished itself in defending the leader during the anti-Japanese armed struggle, in the Songun era. In the most rigorous days of the revolution, she secured the Korean people blessed with having a great leader and made the army infinitely faithful to the leader, the supreme commander. These exploits of the heroine will be conveyed down through generations along with the eternal prosperity of Songun Korea. |
