I take great pleasure in welcoming you to

the Republic of Korea. Whether this is your rst

time on the peninsula or a return assignment,

you can look forward to a rewarding tour of duty

in the “Land of the Morning Calm.”

You are joining a proud line of military

professionals who helped the Republic of Korea

become a booming world economic power

and one of our strongest Allies. You are a part

of our Good Neighbor Program and the way

you interact with our Korean friends makes a

real difference in the strength of our Alliance.

Every Servicemember, Civilian, Contractor and

Family Member stationed in Korea represents

the United States. Treat our Korean friends as

you would want to be treated.

Korea is an ancient nation with a rich 5,000-

year history. The people of the Republic of

Korea have developed this nation into a vibrant

economy that competes in the international

arena with the 11th largest Gross Domestic Product in the world, and

the largest ship building facility found anywhere.

For both newcomers and returnees to Korea, you’ll see a move

towards the best the Army has to offer. You can count on your local MWR,

services units and USO to help you look forward to a personally and

professionally rewarding experience in the “Land of the Morning Calm”.

Please take advantage of the many trips and tours to better understand

the wonderful culture of our Korean Ally.

From your rst day in Korea, you’ll become a part of a new vision of

making life better for Soldiers, DoD Civilians and Family Members.

United States Forces Korea is in the midst of a transformation that is

turning Quonset huts into memories and is committed to providing modern

facilities on consolidated bases in just a few short years. Service programs

here are also improving to match the new facilities. The construction of

new Army Family Housing, a robust facility renovation program and

rapidly expanding family support services have all contributed signicantlyto Korea becoming a sought after “Assignment of Choice” — and I can

assure you that the best is yet to come.

Recently, we gathered community members

and senior leaders together to sign the Army

Family Covenant. That promise is our guarantee

to provide a quality of life commensurate with

the service of our great Soldiers and Family

Members. I remain fully committed to this

covenant and assure you that IMCOM will

continue to support and expand programs and

facilities to support our Soldiers, Families and

our Civilian workforce.

Our Families are in many ways the true

seless servants to our Army and our nation.

With that in mind I pledge to continue improving

your quality of life here; wholly embracing

the Army Family Covenant and the valuable

programs available to Soldiers and Families

at every garrison in Korea. IMCOM-Korea is

there for you and your Family so you can focus

on your mission.

The realignment of USFK and the transformation at USAG-Humphreys

is one of the largest transformational efforts in the history of our Army.

This expansion is a key part of the Yongsan Relocation and Land

Partnership Plan. All of our garrisons have accomplished a tremendous

amount of major construction projects, force protection initiatives and,

most importantly, they have greatly increased the readiness and improved

the quality of life for our Soldiers and Families.

As exemplied by the photos on this page and the next, we are

entering a new era — one that has open the door to expanded command

sponsorship opportunities and is geared towards normalizing tours for

our Soldiers, Civilians and Families. Welcome to the “New Korea.”

WELCOME TO KOREA

Welcome to Korea:

TOUR NORMALIZATION: USAG-Yongsan Commander Col. Dave Hall reads stories to children June 13 to celebrate the Army birthday at theYongsan Child Development Center. The number of command sponsored family members in Korea is expected to grow over the coming years. InDecember 2009 the Department of Defense increased accompanied tour lengths from two- to three-years for Servicemembers assigned to Pyeontaek,Osan, Daegu, Chinhae and Seoul. This new stationing policy maintains one-year unaccompanied tours for all locations, and authorizes two-year accompanied tours at Uijeongbu and Dongducheon. Existing infrastructure will allow an increase to 4,350 command sponsored positions. A phasedprogram will synchronize further increases in family authorizations with the expansion of necessary infrastructure. This phased approach ensuresthat the appropriate level of necessary services, such as education and medical care, are in place as the number of family members increases.

from a domestic hub.

The twenty-four courses offered through a DoDEA contracted vendor will provide limited seats for DoDEA

students throughout the world in subject areas where courses are not yet developed within the DoDEA Virtual

of students who need a course to graduate. In the future, we plan to reduce the number of vendor-delivered

courses as we expand our course offerings delivered through the DoDEA Virtual School Program.

For SY 09/10 we anticipate the target aud ience attending the Virtual School will be those stu dents wishingto supplement their course offerings at a DoDDS school or to supplement their course offerings in their Non-

requirements and address course needs of eligible students; (2) develop and deliver customized, standards-

based courses that contain exibility to provide students with differentiated instruction and provide opportunities

for increased synchronous interaction to support active engagement and help students be successful in theonline environment; and (3) address the educational needs of military-connected students in transition and

ensure that eligible students have access to a quality DoDEA educational experience, regardless of location

or circumstance.

Beginning SY 09/10, DoDEA will establish a DoDDS-Pacic/DDESS-Gu am Area hub in Korea. There

will be 37 courses available through the DoDEA Virtual School Program. Thirteen of these courses will

be taught by DoDEA Virtual School teachers and twenty-four courses will be available through a DoDEA

contracted vendor. At least four of these courses will be taught from the Virtual School hub in Korea. Most

ARMY FAMILY HOUSING: Army Family

Covenant signing ceremonies were held

at installations throughout Korea as a

symbolic commitment to family quality

of life. Tower, or high rise style family

housing in Korea provides ample living

space for an average American family

while being conveniently located to post

amenities. Hannam Village and Burke

Towers at USAG-Yongsan and family

housing in Daegu follow this style.

Housing under construction at Humphreys

Garrison has also been developed to meet

the needs of families by providing high-

rise design with a Main Street USA feel.




Army Family Housing

Accompanied, command-sponsored personnel

are housed in Army Family Housing.When you inprocess at the housing ofce, your

name will be placed on the appropriate waiting list

for your rank and family composition. Placement

on the waiting list will be based on your eligibility

date, normally the date you departed your previous

duty station.

The bedroom requirements are determined by

the size of your family. Couples with no children or

with one child are eligible for two-bedroom units.

Sponsors with two children are authorized three-

bedroom units and families with three or more

children are authorized a four-bedrooms unit.

Family housing is normally available upon arrival

except for four- and ve-bedroom requirements.

Families with a requirement of four bedrooms

or more may voluntarily accept a unit with fewer

bedrooms than they are authorized. This may

signicantly decrease the waiting time for quarters;however, keep in mind that you will be considered

adequately housed for the remainder of your tour, if

you elect to do this.

The Housing Ofce provides travel decisions for

concurrent travel (family housing available within 60

days of arrival), deferred travel (housing available

within 140 days of arrival) and non-concurrent travel

(housing available after 140 days of arrival).

For information on housing travel status or

availability of family housing, contact your local

housing ofce.

Off-Post Housing

Off-post housing is plentiful and consists of high-

rise, mid- and low-rise apartments, villas, duplexes

and some single homes. Civilian employees are

required to reside off post except for positions

designated as key and essential. For active-dutymilitary, regardless of service, you can only reside off

post if adequate government quarters for your rank

and family size are not available. You will then be

given a certicate of non-availability and authorization

to seek economy quarters.

Regardless if you are military or civilian, do not

enter into a lease agreement without processing

through the Housing Referral Ofce.

Unaccompanied Personnel Housing

Unaccompanied personnel are normally assigned

to Unaccompanied Personnel Housing on post.

These facilities consist of newly renovated

barracks, bachelor enlisted quarters, senior enlisted

quarters and bachelor ofcer quarters.

Unaccompanied personnel are required to

reside in on-post government quarters if space

is available for their rank. Only when UPH is fullwill Servicemembers be given a certicate of non-

availability and be authorized to reside off post.

For additional information on UPH, please call

738-5506.

Living Quarters Allowance

LQA is a tax-free allowance paid to civilian

employees recruited from the U.S. in order to

substantially offset the cost for suitable permanent

housing while stationed in Korea. LQA covers the

cost of rent and utilities. Most civilian employees

assigned to Korea live off-post in modern, spacious

apartments. Upon arrival to Korea employees will

meet with the Garrison housing ofce and receive

assistance in nding just the right home.

In 1961, the aireld was re-named Camp

Humphreys, in honor of CWO BenjaminK. Humphreys of the 6th TransportationCompany, who died in a helicopter accident near here. The HumphreysDistrict Command was activated in 1964as a separate installation command of theEighth U.S. Army. Later it was designatedas the 23rd Direct Support Group, whichprovided all direct support, supply andmaintenance, training aides, and operatedthe Eighth Army Milk Plant.

In 1974, with the activation of the 19thSupport Brigade, this was designated asU.S. Army Garrison, Camp Humphreys.In 1985, it was restructured to supportwartime missions and was designated the23rd Support Group. In 1996, a separateU.S. Army Support Activity Area III wasactivated to provide base operations andcommunity support.

PAGE 24 • WELCOME EDITIONhttp://imcom.korea.army.mil THE KOREAN WAR

Outbreak of the War

The Korean War began with a surprise

attack June 25, 1950, when eight divisions

and an armored brigade (90,000 soldiers) of

the North Korean People’s Army attacked in

three columns across the 38th parallel and

invaded the Republic of Korea. Many of the

NKPA were battle-tested, having served in

the Chinese and Soviet armies in World War

II. The 98,000-strong ROK Army, its combat

training incomplete, and having no tanks and

only 89 howitzers, was no match for the better-

equipped NKPA. Aided only by a 500-man U.S.

Korean Military Advisory Group, the ROKA was

overwhelmed. Spearheaded by tanks, NKPAforces moved rapidly through the Uijongbu

Gap on the west side of the Korean peninsula

and captured Seoul, South Korea’s capital.

The ROKA ed south in disarray across the

Han River toward Pusan, a major port at the

southeastern tip of the Korean peninsula.

On June 25, the U.N. Security Council

denounced North Korea’s actions and called

for a cessation of hostilities and withdrawal

of the NKPA to the 38th parallel. President

Harry S. Truman directed General of the Army

Douglas MacArthur, whose Far East Command

was located in Tokyo, to evacuate American

dependents from Korea and send ammunition

to the beleaguered ROKA. The following day,

Truman sanctioned the use of American air and naval forces below the 38th parallel.

The next day, as the situation worsened, the

United Nations requested its members to

furnish military assistance to repel the invasion.

Truman then extended American air and naval

actions to North Korea and authorized the

use of U.S. Army troops to protect Pusan.

MacArthur, however, recommended committing

Korean War overview, 1950-1953a U.S. Army regiment in the Seoul area. Truman

agreed, and on June 30 he told MacArthur to

use all forces available to him.

South to the Naktong

Ground forces most readily available to

MacArthur included the 1st Cavalry Division

and the 7th, 24th and 25th Infantry Divisions,

all under 8th U.S. Army headquartered in

Japan; the 29th Regimental Combat Team in

Okinawa, Japan; and the 5th RCT from Hawaii.

But these units were hard pressed to defend

the ROK because they were undermanned

and their mobility and firepower had been

reduced by shortages of organic units andequipment. In an effort to delay the NKPA

advance, MacArthur ordered the 1st Battalion,

21st Infantry Regiment of the 24th Infantry

Division moved to a defensive position astride

the main road near Osan, 10 miles below

Suwon. Named Task Force Smith after the

battalion commander, this 540-man command

lacked effective anti-tank weapons and was

ill-prepared to stop the NKPA. Outanked by

an NKPA division and suffering some 200

casualties and the loss of all equipment, TF

Smith broke into a disorganized retreat.

Meanwhile, at the United Nation’s request,

the United States formed the United Nations

Command, which would integrate all American

and allied forces. General MacArthur becameits commander. He assigned command of

ground forces in Korea to Eighth U.S. Army

under Lieutenant General Walton H. Walker.

At the request of ROK President Syngman

Rhee, Walker also assumed command of the

ROK Army.

By the beginning of August, after the arrival

of the 29th RCT from Okinawa on July 26,

Eighth U.S. Army held only a small portion of

southeastern Korea. Walker ordered a stand

along a 140-mile line arching from the Korea

Strait to the East Sea west and north of Busan.

Known as the “Pusan Perimeter,” American

divisions occupied the western segment, basing

their position along the Naktong River; the ROK

Army defended the northern segment. With

Pusan secure, additional troops and equipment

began arriving to reinforce EUSA’s perilously

long, thin defensive line. At the same time the

arrival of the U.S. Army’s 5th RCT from Hawaii,

the 2d Infantry Division and the 1st Provisional

Marine Brigade from the United States, and a

British infantry brigade, strengthened EUSA.

Incheon

Having traded space for time, MacArthur

saw that the deeper the NKPA drove south, the

more vulnerable it became to an amphibious

envelopment. The amphibious force consisted

of the 1st Marine Division and the 7th Infantry

Division, its ranks eshed out with several

thousand Korean recruits. MacArthur’s decision

to land at Incheon was a dangerous but

remarkably bold and successful gamble.

Tidal conditions allowed only a small window

of opportunity for the landing. Moreover, he

would be committing his last major reserves

at a time when no more general reserve units

were available in the United States.Following the successful, lightly opposed

landings at Incheon on Sept. 15, arduous street-

to-street combat took place to liberate Seoul.

On Sept. 29, the capital city was returned to

President Rhee. Although many communist

guerillas would remain behind, the NKPA

virtually disintegrated and ceased to be an

effective ghting force.

North to the Yalu

Truman authorized MacArthur to send his

forces north of the 38th parallel on Sept. 27,

provided there was no indication that major

Soviet or Chinese Communist Forces would

enter the war. The U.N. General Assembly

approved the UNC’s entry into North Korea 10

days later, when it called for the restoration of

peace and security throughout Korea. American

and ROK Army forces rapidly advanced

northward.

Warnings of Chinese intervention increased

as the UNC pressed deeper into North Korea.

At a Wake Island meeting on Oct. 15, Trumandirected MacArthur to continue his advance if he

believed UNC forces had a reasonable chance

of success. Hoping to end operations before the

onset of winter, MacArthur ordered all ground

forces to advance to the northern border as

rapidly as possible.

The New War

Beginning on Oct. 25, UNC forces met stout

resistance almost everywhere across their front.

On November 1, the 1st Cavalry Division’s 8th

Cavalry Regiment fought erce battles with the

CCF. Severe ghting continued Nov. 5–6, after

which the CCF abruptly halted its activities in

all sectors, leaving the UNC uncertain as to

whether the CCF’s actions had been merelydefensive.

Tenth Corps, reinforced by the U.S. 3d

Infantry Division, and EUSA slowly renewed

their offensive. Thinning logistical lines of

support, inadequate intelligence and sub-zero

cold added to the difculties of the UNC. With

the 7th Division leading, X Corps reached the

Yalu at the town of Hyesanjin. Eighth Army units

began moving forward from the Chongchon

on Nov. 24, and were hit hard by strong CCF

attacks. On Nov. 27, the attacks engulfed

the leftmost forces of the X Corps at the

Changjin (Chosin) Reservoir, and by Nov. 28th,

UNC positions began to crumble. MacArthur

informed Washington that the UNC faced an

entirely new war. With more than 300,000

Chinese in North Korea, he directed Walker to

withdraw to escape envelopment by the CCF.

MacArthur ordered X Corps to fall back to a

beachhead around the port of Hungnam.

Unrelenting CCF pressure, which often

included surprise nighttime assaults and

hand-to-hand combat and the rigors of a harsh

winter, made the UNC’s retreat dangerous and

costly. The 2d Division, covering the withdrawalof I Corps and the ROK II Corps from the

Chongchon, encountered an entrenched CCF

force below the town of Kunu-ri. The CCF

surrounded and severely punished the 2d

Division as the unit fought its way through the

gauntlet to escape.

Changjin (Chosin) Reservoir

Abandoning Pyongyang on Dec. 5, elements

of 8th U.S. Army reached the 38th parallel 10

days later, where it prepared to protect Seoul and

develop a coast-to-coast defense. Tenth Corps

fought a 13-day running battle to the east coast

as it withdrew to Hungnam. Near the Changjin

Reservoir, the 1st Marine Division and elements

of the U.S. 7th Division met stiff opposition fromthe CCF in positions overlooking the mountain

road to the sea. The 3d Division, positioned

near Hungnam with X Corps, was sent inland

to open the road and

protect the withdrawal

of the Army and Marine

Corps units. On Dec. 11, X

Corps completed its move

to Hungnam, and American

and ROK Army forces began

their evacuation to Pusan

the same day. Tenth Corps,

which became part of 8th

U.S. Army , completed the

evacuation Christmas Eve.

A Change in Leadership

CCF attacks and successive

withdrawals had weakened EUSA,

and General Walker’s accidental death on Dec.

23, was another dispiriting blow. Lieutenant

General Matthew B. Ridgway, who arrived from

Washington, D.C., on Dec. 26, took command

of EUSA. Despite Ridgway’s hurried efforts to

brace the defensive line across the peninsula,

he and his men could not contain the CCF’s

New Year’s offensive. Seoul fell in early January

1951. Ridgway pulled EUSA’s entire front below

the 38th parallel. When the CCF offensive

faltered in mid-January, Ridgway was ready to

resume the offensive and adopted a strategy

to inict maximum casualties on the enemy

with minimum losses to his troops. Ridgway

proposed a war of maneuver, slashing the

enemy as it withdrew and ghting delaying

actions when the enemy attacked. Land gainsbecame less important than damaging the CCF/

NKPA and keeping the enemy off balance.

Ridgway’s offensive began on Jan. 25,

advancing slowly and methodically, ridge by

ridge, phase line by phase line, wiping out

each pocket of resistance before moving farther

north. Operations THUNDERBOLT, KILLER,

RIPPER and RUGGED carried the U.N. forces

forward. EUSA liberated Seoul in mid-March

and neared the 38th parallel. For the next

month, EUSA cautiously probed north of the

parallel, expanding the front rst to phase Line

KANSAS, 10 miles above the 38th, and then

to the Iron Triangle, an enemy logistical area

north of Line KANSAS.

Ridgway’s ground strategy proved apt for thenew, more limited objectives that American and

U.N. ofcials adopted of clearing the CCF/NKPA

from South Korea and opening negotiations

with the enemy. Because of differences

regarding war strategy and goals, Truman

relieved MacArthur as United Nations Forces

commander on April 11, and replaced him

with Ridgway. On April 14, Lieutenant General

James A. Van Fleet succeeded Ridgway as

head of EUSA.

Eight days after Van Fleet assumed

command, the enemy began its spring offensive.

The major CCF and NKPA attack was directed

at Seoul. The I Corps contained the enemy’s

advance. EUSA halted the attack on May 20,

after the enemy had penetrated 30 miles.

Seeking to preclude another enemy attack, Van

Fleet ordered EUSA forward. By the end of May,

EUSA had progressed to a position just short

of Line KANSAS, having virtually cleared the

ROK of enemy troops. Van Fleet moved next

to reach Line WYOMING, which would give

EUSA control of the lower portion of the Iron

Triangle. When the Soviet Union’s delegate

to the United Nations proposed a cease-re

in Korea on June 23, 8th U.S. Army occupied

Line KANSAS and the Wyoming Bulge, ground

suitable for a strong defense.

The Static War

As the ghting lapsed into patrolling and

small local clashes, armistice negotiations

began on July 10, 1951. The opposing

delegations agreed that hostilities wouldcontinue until an armistice was signed. Except

for brief episodes, action along the front for the

next two years never regained the momentum

of the rst year. On Nov. 17, the two delegations

agreed that a line of demarcation during the

armistice would be the existing line of contact

provided an agreement was reached in 30

days. On Nov. 12, Ridgway ordered Van Fleet

to cease offensive operations. Fighting tapered

off to patrol clashes, raids and small battles for

possession of outposts in no-man’s land.

The battleeld stalemate was periodically

interrupted by artillery duels, ambushes, raids

and costly small-scale hill battles such as Old

Baldy. The battleeld lull enabled the Army to

return the 1st Cavalry and 24th Infantry Divisions

to Japan and to replace them with the 40th and

45th Infantry Divisions, two of the eight Army

National Guard divisions that were mobilized

during the war. A new United Nations Forces

commander, General Mark W. Clark, replaced

Ridgway in May 1952, and Lieutenant General

Maxwell D. Taylor replaced Van Fleet as 8th

U.S. Army commander in February 1953.

As armistice negotiations entered their

nal and decisive phase in May, the enemy

stepped up combat action. CCF forces launched

regimental attacks against EUSA outposts in

the west. In July, the enemy sought to wrest

more ground from the UNC by driving a

wedge eight miles deep into 8th Army’s central

sector. Taylor quickly contained the enemy

and counterattacked, but with an armistice

agreement imminent, 8th U.S. Army halted

its attack on July 20 short of the original line.

Finally, on July 27, 1953, the Armistice was

signed and all ghting stopped.

After 37 months of combat, total UNC

casualties reached more than 550,000,

including 95,000 dead. American losses

included 33,686 killed and 103,284 wounded.

United States Army casualties alone totaled

27,728 dead and 77,596 wounded. The bulk of

these casualties occurred during the rst year

of ghting. The estimate of enemy casualties,including prisoners, exceeded 1,500,000 of

whom 900,000 were Chinese.

The Army deployed eight divisions to Korea-

-the 1st Cavalry Division; the 2d, 3d, 7th, 24th,

25th, 40th and 45th Infantry Divisions; and the

5th, 29th and 187th RCTs. U.S. Army personnel

received 78 of the 131 Medals of Honor awarded

to military members who served in Korea.

THE KOREAN WAR



PAGE 26 • WELCOME EDITIONhttp://imcom.korea.army.mil KATUSA

In Korea, most military-aged males mustserve in the armed forces for a period of atleast two years. Some of these young menperform their obligation to their country bybecoming integrated into the 8th U.S. Armythrough a unique program known as KoreanAugmentation to the U.S. Army.

KATUSA Soldiers are Republic of KoreaArmy soldiers who serve under the U.S. chainof command, but are commanded by the ROKArmy in personnel management.

The KATUSA program began in July 1950,through an informal agreement between theROK president and Gen. Douglas MacArthur toaugment U.S. forces during the early stages of the Korean War. Until 1982, KATUSA Soldierswere selected from either the Army Basic

Military Training Center or cadres of ROKArmy units.Currently, KATUSA Soldiers are chosen

randomly among a pool comprised of thosewho have demonstrated English prociency as

measured by a standardized test.The KATUSA program is important because

KATUSA Soldiers comprise approximately 10

KATUSApercent of the total 8th U.S. Army manpower inKorea, with more than 3,500 KATUSA Soldiersserving side-by-side with their U.S. counterparts.The program also serves as a combat multiplier and increases combat readiness for theU.S. and ROK combined defense capabilitythroughout the Korean peninsula. In addition,the program is symbolic of the U.S and ROKalliance and mutual support systems.

Because of their limited service time,KATUSA Soldiers have a promotion system thatdiffers from U.S. Soldiers. While their Americancounterparts gain promotion by amassing pointsand attending boards, KATUSA Soldiers servein a rank for a specied period of time and

are then automatically promoted to the nexthighest rank.

ROKA staff ofce has ve major missions.These include KATUSA management, KATUSAdiscipline, ROKA-directed training, U.S. andROK friendship activities and U.S. and ROKliaison work.

Serving as a KATUSA Soldier is a traditionthat strengthens the Republic of Korea and theROK-U.S. military Alliance.

In general terms, the Republic

of Korea military rank and

grade structure corresponds,

with that of the U.S military, as

does the correlation between

rank and responsibility.




PANMUNJOM — The Korean War began on a Sunday morning in 1950, whenCommunist North Korean struck South Koreain a pre-dawn infantry and artillery assault. Over the next three years it is estimated that aboutone million South Koreans were killed or wentmissing in the conict. An additional 33,686 U.S.Servicemembers perished in battle at placeswith names like “Heartbreak Ridge” and “PorkChop Hill.”

Almost exactly three years after the conict

began, a cease-re was declared on July 27,

1953 and since that time North and South Koreahave been separated by one of the world’smost intensely guarded borders. The KoreanDMZ cuts across the peninsula near the 38thparallel, along the line of ghting positions held

by each side when the cease-re was called.

That cease-re remains in effect today.

A journey to the DMZ helps to illustrate theimportance of the U.S. military presence inKorea, and the vital partnership of the US-ROKAlliance.

Interesting sites to visit include Dorasan

Station, a railroad that runs between the twoKoreas; the “Third Infiltration Tunnel”, oneof four known tunnels constructed by NorthKorea; The Military Armistice CommissionBuilding, and the Bridge of No Return, a historicremnant of the Cold War era, which crosses

the DMZ in the Joint Security Area. The bridgeis especially noteworthy as it was used for prisoner exchanges at the end of the KoreanWar. The name originates from the fact thatprisoners were given the choice to remain inthe country of their captivity or cross over to

the other country. But if they chose to cross thebridge, they would never be allowed to return.

Today, a trip to the Korean DemilitarizedZone can be a surreal experience.

Often described as the most heavilydefended border in the world, this remains oneof the only places on earth where large armiesstill stand toe-to-toe in formidable opposition.

Inside the DMZ, Panmunjom is a heavilyfortied encampment, patrolled at all times by

ROK soldiers in stoic silence. Rigid protocoldictates that visitors are not to wave, shout or gesticulate in any way toward North Koreanguards positioned just yards away. For themost part, it’s exactly what one would expectfrom such a place. But the DMZ reveals a fewsurprises. It may be the last place one wouldexpect to nd a popular tourist attraction with a

gift shop and a one-hole golf course.Servicemembers, Civilians and Family

Members are encouraged to visit the DMZwhile stationed in Korea. For information on theUSO’s tour schedule or reservations, call DSN795-3063/3028 or DSN 724-7781.

USAG-Yongsan Public Affairs

For Civilian employees and Family

Members, the most important thing you

may need in Korea, besides a great pair

of walking shoes, is a Ration Control

Card.

Your ration card is just as important

as your military identication card. In

short, it is a card that most on-post

businesses, like Army and Air Force

Exchange, commissary and the Chosun

Gift Shop, need to see before you can

make purchases.Ofcials want to make sure you are

not purchasing huge quantities of any

item in order to resell. Your sponsor

should be able to help provide you with

a temporary card when you arrive.

To get a ration card, applicants must

attend a training session at the Yongsan

Readiness Center. Upon completion of

the course, applicants will receive a

memorandum to take to the Directorate

of Emergency Services, Ration Control

Issue Point. DES is located on South

Post at U.S. Army Garrison-Yongsan,

Bldg. 4305, Room 105. For information,

call 738-4612. Following are some

important points about this importantcard:g You will need a ration card for each

authorized Family Member (children

ages 10 and up).

g Don’t leave home without it.

g During their rst two weeks in Korea,

Civilian employees and Family Members

can shop in the commissary and

exchange with a military identication

card and a copy of their PCS orders.

g Family Members with sponsors

assigned to 2nd Infantry Division need

to contact the Division Liaison Ofce at

the Yongsan Readiness Center across

the parking lot of the Dragon Hill Lodge

for a ration card.

g Every purchase in the commissary is

recorded in a real-time system based on

a shopper’s identication number. The

commissary system sends information

to a database which automatically

generates a violation notice if you

exceed your purchase limit.

g At the PX, ration limits restrict

purchasing a maximum of three of

the same high-value item. Cosmetics,

select health and beauty aids and select

wines are some of the high-value, high-

demand items.

Ration card process and procedures

will be covered in-depth during the

inprocessing program at the Yongsan

Readiness Center.The Ration Card issuing office

is located adjacent to the Yongsan

Readiness Center Bldg. 4305, Rm. 105.

For information, call 738-4612. Hours

are weekdays 9 am. -5 p.m., Thursdays

noon - 4 p.m.

YONGSAN GARRISON, REPUBLIC

OF KOREA – he Yongsan ReadinessCenter, the central inprocessing andorientation center or nearly everyoneon orders to Korea, has a new our-day program.

YRC ocials reorganized the currentve-day program into our days.

“We did this so we could get Soldiersout to their units aster,” said Capt. DesireeDirige, YRC commander. “Ater analyzingthe schedule, we realized there was somedown time that we could use better, andthis makes more ecient use o Soldiers’time.”

Te YRC is designed to be a one-stopcentral inprocessing and orientation center

or Soldiers and Civilians and their Families who will live in Areas II, III and IV. It rstopened in August 2007 under a USFK initiative to provide in-depth orientationor newcomers to Korea.

While Soldiers must attend the entireour days, Civilians and Family Membersmust attend two o the our days.

Better Opportunities for Single andUnaccompanied Soldiers, or BOSS, isa dynamic Soldier program in Korea.

It is dedicated to enhancing the quality of lifefor single or geographically single Soldiers of all ranks by providing them an effective voiceat the installation where they serve. Soldiersand FMWR advisors work hand-in-hand withCommanders, Command Sergeants’ Major,and First Sergeants to provide superior leisureprograms and help direct the resolution of quality of life issues for Soldiers.

What is BOSS?

The Better Opportunities for Single SoldiersProgram supports the overall quality of single and

unaccompanied Soldiers’ lives. BOSS identiesreal Soldier well being issues and concerns byrecommending improvements through the chainof command. BOSS encourages and assistssingle Soldiers in identifying and planning for recreational and leisure activities. Additionally,it gives single Soldiers the opportunity toparticipate in and contribute to their respectivecommunities.

History of BOSS

The BOSS program was established in 1989to respond to the recreational needs of singlesoldiers, who make up 40% of the Army. Asthe program was implemented throughout theArmy, it became evident that well being was theprimary concern of single soldiers. In 1991, theChief of Staff of the Army ofcially expanded

BOSS to include all aspects of soldiers’ lives.BOSS members later began to express aninterest in participating in community serviceprojects. Recreation and leisure, well being(Quality of Life), and community service are thecore components of the BOSS program.

How Does BOSS Work?

BASIC KOREAN PHRASES

The Korean written language, Hangul, is very easy for newcomers to Korea to learnin just a few hours. Knowing how to sound out words can help with reading streetsigns, subway station names, and names of businesses. Many English and other

foreign words are written in Hangul in Korean. You’ll be amazed at how many signsyou can read and excited when you discover that you recognize English wordswritten in Hangul. There have been many different styles of romanization for Koreanover the years. Recently a revised romanization of Korean has been adopted. It wasdeveloped by the National Academy of the Korean Language from 1995 and wasreleased to the public on July 7, 2000, by South Korea's Ministry of Culture andTourism. This guide uses that revised romanization standard. To properly pronounceromanized Korean, use the pronunciation guide at the right.

ROMANIZED KOREAN PRONUNCIATION GUIDEConsonants in Korean sound similar to English consonants. Generally, hard consonants inKorean like “k” and “p” are not as hard as the English versions unless a double consonantlike “kk” or “pp” is used. There are many exceptions that you will learn through experience.

Vowels can be a little bit tricky. The romanized korean letter “i” is always pronounced with along “e” sound like in the word “seen”. The romanized letters “e” and “ae” are pronouncedwith a short “e” sound like “beg”. The letters “oe” together sound like the word “way”. Theletter “a” is pronounced with the short “a” sound like in the word “blah”. The letter “o” ispronounced like the vowel sound in the word “boat”. The letter “u” is pronounced like thevowel sound in “swoon”. The vowel combination “eo” is pronounced like “aw” in “saw”. Thevowel combination “eu” is pronounced like the vowel sound in “good”. The vowel combina-tion “ui” is pronounced like “whee”. All of the vowel combinations that start with the letter“y” and “w” are pronounced with a “y” or “w” sound added to the beginning of the sound.

this form of transportation, unless a sponsor has

obtained prior clearance from 1RC.

This policy applies to staff sergeants and

below. Senior noncommissioned ofcers and

ofcers can be picked up by a sponsor if they

get prior clearance. For information, call 723-

6452, or commercial 0505-723-6452.

At Incheon International Airport, newcomers

are met by U.S. Forces Korea reception

personnel at the baggage claim area.

If you do not see the reception personnel

in the terminal, go through the entire customs

and immigration and baggage claim process

with your leave form, orders and identication

card ready. For civilians only, make sure your

passport is stamped.

You should look for the U.S. Military Liaison

Ofce located near Gate 14.

There are several exits out of the baggage

claim area. If you are unsure which exit is

correct, go ahead and depart any exit. You

should read the monitors located above the exit

doors. Your ight number will be posted with

an exit door letter. If you have exited the wrong

way, don’t worry, you will be able to easily walk

to the correct exit.

Once you have met your sponsor, they will

most likely take you directly to your lodging, but

please check-in to 1RC rst. The rst night’s

lodging is paid for by 1RC, but only if personnel

check-in. The 1RC will also be able to advise

you where you need to go for inprocessing.

For civilians only, if you need to go to

Yongsan on your own, go through any of the exit

doors. You can either take a taxi (expensive) or

the Dragon Hill Lodge shuttle (free) to Yongsan

Garrison. If you wish to take the bus, look for

signs to the USO desk, located at Gate 14.

If the USO desk is open, they can tell you

when the bus to Yongsan is departing. Since you

will be in permanent change of station status,

you and your family members will have priority

above anyone else wishing to ride the bus, aside

from any others in PCS status.

Taxis are located outside the terminal. Army

and Air Force Exchange Service taxis have

English-speaking drivers. They are the only

taxis authorized to come on-post, so it is better

to take one of these.

The AAFES taxis, which are black with

gold letters, park to the far right as you exit the

airport. The AAFES taxi stand is near Gate 14.

For information, call 02-7913-5550. All AAFES

taxis have meters, that read in Korean currency,

but drivers accept U.S. dollars.

If you take a Korean taxi, be sure to have

Korean currency. Try to select a cab which

has clearly visible identication about both the

driver and vehicle. A taxi ride to post will cost

about $50-$60.

Passengers travelling on foreign airlines

at the Incheon International Airport should use

the newly-opened terminal building. Until now,

both domestic and foreign airlines have used

the existing terminal.

With the opening of the new terminal

building, the moving line for arrival and

departure procedures will be significantly

changed. Arriving at the existing terminal,

passengers of foreign airlines should go

through check-in and departure procedure,

and get on STARLINE (shuttle railway) at the

underground of terminal to move to the new

terminal building. It takes about 10 minutes to

get to the terminal building including walking.

During arrival, take STARLINE at the terminal

building, move to the existing terminal and go

through the arrival procedure.

Check-in counters on third floor of the

existing terminal will be rearranged. In the past,

check-in counters of Korean Air and Asiana

Airlines were located on the east side and

foreign airlines were on the west side. However,

Asiana Airlines will move to the west and foreign

airlines will move to the center.

Unlike the existing terminal, the newly-built

terminal building is equipped with facilities only

for departure and arrival procedures. It has

two stories below and ve above the ground.

Among 30 gates of the terminal building, three

are available for the world’s largest passenger

plane-A380.

All Military Arrivals

All Army personnel must report to

the 1RC, Bldg. 4034 next to the Dragon

Hill Lodge. You will have a short brieng,

and then check into lodging. Locations for

inprocessing vary depending on service.
