Ho Chol Hyok, an officer of the Korean People's Army, told KCNA:

All the servicepersons are extending heartfelt congratulations to Kim Jong Un, supreme commander of the KPA, on his reelection as the first NDC chairman.

His reelection on the day celebrating the 21st anniversary of General Secretary Kim Jong Il's election as the chairman of the NDC further encourages the servicepersons, who are determined to accomplish the Songun (military-first) cause of Juche under the leadership of Kim Jong Un.

Kim Jong Un, who has fully embodied distinguished military stratagem, superb commanding art and matchless pluck, always finds himself in the frontline areas, in order to reliably defend the nation's dignity and sovereignty.

Thanks to his seasoned guidance, the KPA is fully displaying the invincible might as befitting the army of the leader and the Workers' Party of Korea and has fully prepared itself as ranks of genuine comrades-in-arms and death-defying corps of the leader.

With the unshakable will that only victory is in store as Kim Jong Un leads the Korean revolution, the KPA servicepersons will remain loyal only to the leadership of the Supreme Commander, who is steadfastly carrying forward the revolutionary cause of Mt. Paektu.

Hong Chol, an officer of the Korean People's Internal Security Forces, said:

I am very exited by the news that supreme commander Kim Jong Un was reelected first NDC chairman.

His reelection has further hardened the pledge of all the servicepersons of the KPISF to devotedly defend him.

No matter how the situation may change, I will remain loyal to the Supreme Commander, upholding him as the one and only center of unity and leadership.
