Nukes, horses and special forces: See North Korea’s new military parade stamps

The country released 15 new stamps honoring the recent military parade with artistic renderings of missiles and weapons

North Korea is still celebrating feats from its Oct. 10 military parade with the release of 15 new postage stamps, which are adorned with propaganda slogans and artistic renderings of the country’s nuclear weapons, new military equipment and recent troop upgrades.

The new stamps, released through the state-run Naenara website on Dec. 20, are in line with the country’s recent habit of memorializing new nuclear-capable intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) developments. However, stamps from 2017 all celebrated ICBM tests, not parade displays.
