VICTORY IS CALLING
This December 16, 1983, marks the twentyaecond Anniversary of the founding of Umkhonto we Sizwe: Though the past twenty-two years of armed struggle have indeed been an uphill struggle, our People's Army has always emerged victorious. It has convincingly displayed its capability to engage and deliver devastating blows at the hated enemy. The heroic combat record set by our gallant army, from Komadpoort through Nkhuze to Sasol, Voortrekkerhoogte, Koeberg, Cape Town and Pretoria, Pietermaritzburg to Durban, has sown panic unprecedented in the ranks of the enemy. The cracks in the white laager are widening with every passing day.
