Lauding the exploits of President Kim Il Sung, leader Kim Jong Il, respected Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un and anti-Japanese war heroine Kim Jong Suk for founding and strengthening of the KPA, the statement said:

The KPA is a heroic army as it defeated the U.S., which boasted of being the "strongest" in the world, for the first time in history under the distinguished leadership of Generalissimo Kim Il Sung, the great brilliant commander of Paektu with iron will and superb strategy.

Under the care of the great Generalissimo Kim Jong Il, it had developed into invincible ranks resolutely foiling the reckless aggression moves of the U.S. imperialists to strangle the DPRK.

Today the KPA has grown up to be the most powerful revolutionary armed forces possessed of even H-bomb.

Preemptive nuclear strike is no longer the monopoly of the U.S.

The DPRK's nuclear force feared by the U.S. imperialists and other war maniacs is the treasured sword of Songun for reliably protecting peace of the Korean peninsula and the rest of the world.

The KPA, fully ready politically, ideologically and in military technique, is an army that the enemy fears most.

That's why no formidable enemy dare provoke the DPRK.
