Respected Comrade Kim Jong Un visits monuments to pay tribute to anti-Japanese revolutionary martyrs on National Liberation Day
  The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un, General Secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and President of the State Affairs of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, visited the Revolutionary Martyrs Cemetery on Mt Taesong on August 14 on the occasion of the 81st anniversary of national liberation.
  Present on the occasion were senior Party, government and military officials, including members of the Presidium of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the WPK, and leading officials of the Central Committee of the WPK, the Standing Committee of the Supreme People's Assembly, the Cabinet, commissions, ministries and national agencies and commanding officers of the Korean People's Army.
  A guard of honor of the KPA lined up there.
  The national anthem of the DPRK was played.
  A wreath in the name of Comrade Kim Jong Un was placed at the wreath-laying stand of the cemetery amid the playing of wreath-laying music.
  Wreaths were also laid in the names of the Central Committee of the WPK, the State Affairs Commission of the DPRK, the Standing Committee of the SPA of the DPRK and the Cabinet of the DPRK.
  Comrade Kim Jong Un, together with all the participants, paid a silent tribute to the memory of the revolutionary martyrs who devoted their precious lives to the sacred struggle for the independence and sovereignty of the country and its prosperity.
  There took place a march-past of the guard of honor of the KPA.
  Noting that the revolutionaries of the first generation fought a bloody war of resistance to save the country and the nation and retake the dignity with their minds burned with the noble sense of duty to bear the responsibility for the destiny of the country and descendants, Comrade Kim Jong Un said that their steadfast independent spirit and undying feats are ideological and moral treasure and precious revolutionary legacy to be inherited for all ages.
  The anti-Japanese revolutionary fighters' beautiful ideal of communism, transparent revolutionary faith and indomitable fighting spirit are injecting eternal viability into our people in their struggle to build a prosperous powerful country the martyrs desired, he said, stating that the cause of the great Korean people will be ever-victorious as they are carrying forward the high revolutionary spirit and noble view of life generation after generation.
  Then Kim Jong Un visited the Monument to Fallen Anti-Japanese Revolutionary Fighters.
  With reverence for the well-known and unsung anti-Japanese revolutionary martyrs, who made a contribution to accomplishing the historic cause of national liberation, remaining faithful to the ideology and leadership of President Kim Il Sung, he placed a flower at the monument and observed a moment's silence in memory of them.
  Looking at a sculpture of three members of the Korean People's Revolutionary Army fighting a heroic battle and a stone monument bearing many martyrs' names, he said that although the bodies of the martyrs who dedicated their precious youth to the revolution to retake the dignity and freedom of the country and the people were buried in unknown mountains and fields, their proud images and feats are clearly recorded in the history of the country.
  He hoped that the pioneering generation of the Korean revolution, who created the priceless revolutionary traditions of the Paektu and handed them down to the new generations, would be always remembered at the peak of the highest honor and dignity along with the advance and development of the ever-victorious socialism of our own style.
