The Korean People's Army, which regards the absolute loyalty to the Workers' Party of Korea and the revolution as its sacred mission and duty, keeps performing brilliant military exploits with its unparalleled fighting spirit and through mass heroism, adding lustre to the prestige and honour of the DPRK.

The officers and combatants of the KPA unit of engineers who had been dispatched to an overseas operations area by the order of the Central Military Commission of the WPK returned home in triumph after carrying out their military assignment.

A ceremony took place with splendour at the plaza of the April 25 House of Culture in the capital city of Pyongyang on December 12 to welcome the 528th Regiment of Engineers which returned home after carrying out the combat order of the Party in the overseas operations area.

The plaza overflowed with great enthusiasm for welcoming the officers and combatants of the unit of engineers who demonstrated once again the irresistible might of the KPA after the officers and men of the KPA special operations force performed legendary combat feats overseas that would shine long in the history of Juche-oriented army building.

The proud sons of the people who entered the plaza with the great pride of having defended the absolute prestige of the state were warmly welcomed by officers and men of the KPA and citizens of the capital city.

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, attended the welcoming ceremony.

Present there were participants in the 13th Plenary Meeting of the Eighth Central Committee of the WPK, commanding officers of the Ministry of National Defence of the DPRK and the large combined units of the KPA, families of the combatants of the engineer regiment, service personnel, Pyongyang citizens, youth and students.

When Comrade Kim Jong Un arrived, service personnel and people raised stormy cheers of "Hurrah!" which reverberated through the sky of December, as they looked up to the ever-victorious and iron-willed brilliant commander who has trained the DPRK armed forces into an invincible army, which wins only victories by means of definite superiority in ideology, spirit and strategy and tactics, with his outstanding military strategic idea, extraordinary commanding art and great trust and love.

Kim Jong Un sent a militant salute to the officers and men of the unit of engineers who defended the immortal reputation and prestige of the KPA and returned home with honour.

A commanding officer of the overseas engineer combat unit courteously reported to Supreme Commander Kim Jong Un of the armed forces of the DPRK that the unit carried out the Party's combat order.
