Armed forces day Jan. 17

Last week was the founding of our armed forces for the Communist Party of Kampuchea. It was a special holiday as we organized the poor peasants and introduced them to the military riffle and use for the first time.


We didn’t have jets. If we had had more time, I’m sure we would have gotten them from China.

Jan. 5 Birth of the Consitution Day

From the Pol Pot Journals:
So as you might expect, we do have festivals in January, but not new year day. That comes later. We do have Constitution Day, maybe some parades and parties, and later on the 17 is Armed Forced Day. A not to those interested in my Autobiography (a work in progress), my assistant, who is a great arm chair traveler, is planning a trip to Kampuchea next Spring Break. Of course he may back out due to the fact that he's usually broke, but he seems determined to make the trip. So a great year awaits us I hope.
