Pyongyang, December 24 (KCNA) -- Rodong Sinmun Thursday in an editorial says that holding leader Kim Jong Il in high esteem at the top post of the revolutionary armed forces 24 years ago was the greatest honor and fortune for the DPRK.

The history of Songun revolutionary leadership made by Kim Jong Il after assuming supreme commandership has been recorded as a heroic epic represented by the immortal exploits he performed before the century with his rare wisdom, outstanding commanding art and dynamic revolutionary practices, the editorial notes, and goes on:

His assumption of the supreme commandership of the Korean People's Army in the early 1990s when the world political situation was undergoing a rapid change made it possible to make a breakthrough for the victory of the Korean revolution and the socialist movement and give steady continuity to the sacred history of Songun revolution on a new high stage. The history of his revolutionary leadership over 2 decades since then is shining with the immortal feats he performed by providing a solid political and military guarantee for the eternal future of the country with his outstanding and far-sighted Songun politics and through high-intensity forced march of patriotic devotion.

Thanks to the Songun revolutionary leadership of Kim Jong Il who made a long journey to the front to safeguard the country out of his indomitable will of Songun, the Korean revolution could win victories while remaining unfazed despite the strong wind of the times, and the service personnel and people of the DPRK work miracles of history never known before.

Dramatic events and epochal changes were made in the DPRK and the Korean revolution from the 1990s to the 2010s and the great victory in national history was won and heroic myths were created in defending socialism and building a thriving nation in the new century of Juche. These will tell about his great Songun revolutionary exploits for all ages.

The editorial calls for glorifying forever his immortal Songun revolutionary feats, keeping them as the eternal treasure of the revolution.
