A combined band performed military music with lilting melody and peculiar virtuosity.
A bugle call for the start of march was sounded and the march started with the column symbolic of bodyguards company carrying a portrait of the ever-victorious, iron-willed brilliant commanderKim Il Sung in the van.
The marchers were carrying portraits of the bodyguards of the first generation of the powerful revolutionary army, passionate loyalists who became a strong bullet-proof wall defending the supreme headquarters, the destiny of Korea.
Passing by the square were the columns symbolic of legendary guards divisions that performed distinguished feats in the three-year hard-fought Fatherland Liberation War, flying the colours of guards units which had been fluttered at the square of military parade made in commemoration of war victory.
Seen in the front rows of the columns of symbolic units were a portrait of the anti-Japanese revolutionary fighter Kang Kon who was the first Chief of the General Staff of the Korean People's Army, and portraits of those who rendered distinguished services to the nation building. There were also portraits of the wartime heroes and heroines including a human-bomb hero who threw himself into the enemy camp with a hand grenade in his mouth.
The columns of symbolic units were followed by the columns of the three services of the KPA marching with dignity.
A flying corps of the Air Force of the KPA in the formation of fan shape passed through the sky over the plaza, decorating the end of the celebrations wonderfully.
After the ceremony, beautiful fireworks were set off in the night sky of the V-Day.
