  • We take you to Camp Humphreys in Pyeongtaek, South Korea, the largest American military base outside the U.S. It's like any U.S. town, home to tens of thousands of U.S. troops and their families. We introduce to you some of the major facilities on post, and some of the military hardware that show U.S. commitment to its alliance with South Korea. Meanwhile, U.S. President Donald Trump insists that South Korea is getting a defense free ride from the U.S., and is demanding that Seoul pay more for stationing the U.S. troops here. But one fact you have to know here is that South Korea has actually paid more than 92% of the costs to build this new headquarters at Camp Humphreys.

    한국은 한미동맹을 중요하게 생각해요.
    한국이 어려움에 처했을때 미국인들이 목숨을 걸고 싸웠습니다. 한국을 도와준 나라들에게 은혜를 갚아야 한다고 생각한다. 당신들의 할아버지들에게 감사합니다.

    These reporters are superb emissaries of their nation. I thank them for stating that the South Korean people paid over 90 percent of the cost of the base. I think that is extraordinary as far as US bases overseas go. South Korea has become an outstanding culture, and I am grateful for our friendship. I hope the American response to North Korean provocations, verbal or otherwise, is always to strengthen that friendship.

    I was stationed there in 1958. Pyeongtaek, then was a small village. The base was primarily a helicopter base . I was in the 304th Signal Bn. There was a very small PX, a very small snack bar and a very small library. Don't remember a movie. Wasn't a whole lot of fun. Its amazing what is there now, hard to believe.

I had a great time while stationed there back then and made a lot of lifelong friends, if you are a Soldier still enlisted and you haven't been there yet I would highly recommend it. The Korean people are amazing, hard working people and it's culture is very different from anything American. If I ever have the opportunity you can bet your bottom dollar I will go back there again someday.

    Thank you very much from the bottom of my heart to all the past and present US troops.
    Your efforts bring peace and harmony in the Korean Peninsula. South Koreans have been able to live without the fear of war for almost 70 years.
    I can only imagine without the US presence, it would not be possible for South Korea to develop into a top 15 economy in the world. Primarily if the country was unstable with the threat of war. We would be in similar living conditions as to the middle east.
    All Koreans recognise this and respect you a lot. It is only the politicians and left wing parties who voice their populism speech and create hate on US troops.
    I hope we will remain each other's greatest ally and at the same time benefit one another's interests.

    Current Camp Humphries looks good (It used to be just airfields and barracks) but I'm glad one of the times I was stationed in Korea it was in 8th Army, Yongsan. I was able to stay in an apartment off-post. I loved going to Itaewon, hitting the Electronics Market, going to Lotte World, going on Hash Runs around Seoul on the weekend and going to various club and shopping areas in Seoul. Staying at the Dragon Hill Lodge for a week starting and ending my tour was loads of fun. It's a shame politics has ended that experience for soldiers.

It has its own government seat, school system, post office, police force, firefighters, commissary (like supermarkets) civilian and military housing and amenities such as Bowling, theaters, baseball, american football and tennis courts and YMCA also has buildings in the Canal Zone. It also had military bases to defend both entrances (in the pacific and the atlantic) of the Panama Canal, jungle warfare training center and also held the US Southern Command.

      @@tintinsnowyful It must have been so cool living in those times. My apologies Mr. Clifford. Now that I read my comment it seems that I lived or experienced the Canal Zone, but it is far from that. Im a Panamanian very interested in the history and legacy of The US in my country. I was born in 1991. So in those times the US were packing up preparing to leave Panama in accordance to the Canal Treaty of 1977. I remember when I was a kid my father used to take me to Amador Causeway. Since I was a kid I felt that the area surrounding Amador (Balboa, Ancon) felt like it was another country. You know when one’s a kid, one’s is thinking of playing and having a good time. There is no way to comprehend the political situation or history of a country being a child. My father used to say when the gringos were here things were different. So, When I became a young adult I started doing researched on the internet and reading about the Canal Zone to understand what it was. Here at School, the history classes do not touch that much about the Panama Canal Zone and what it was, how it worked, nothing. So I started reading about it, and I think Panama should change the view of the Former Canal Zone. The history of the CZ belongs to our country as well, and I think it should be preserved. Since Panama has had the land of the former Canal Zone, they have been destroying the buildings and housings (which has a unique architecture style), and also destroying rainforest. The Panamanian government see those territories as profit. If you ask me, I would have preferred that the US have stayed in the Canal Zone. Panama does not deserve those territories.

NATO on the other hand that is something I wish USA would leave. We actually appreciate Korea (and Japan) because they are a much stronger ally than our allies in Europe but Trump is always pushing for more so he is encouraging South Korea to spend more on their military and bulk it up.

    If the US was in Japan and SK to colonize and enslave those nations, we're pretty bad at it. We've been there for several decades and they each have their own government and military. If it was a colonization project, where are the settlers? After so many decades, shouldn't the colony have spread beyond the military base? As for the enslavement, if I have a Japanese or Korean slave available because I'm an American, I didn't get the memo. I can assure you my house would be much cleaner if I owned a slave. Please just tell me where I can go to pick up my Japanese or Korean slave. I've been missing out...

Modern South Korea could not have existed with out the support of the US, and your grandfather. ROK-US alliance was, is, and will stay strong in any situation.

      @@armada1290 A shout out to Kang Sang-hoon -- a former KATUSA I knew at 1/17th Mech. Inf. at Camp Casey (1985), and Lee Sang-keun, who I knew at 2nd/503rd Inf. at Camp Hovey, '87-'88.
      Kang Sang-hoon now works for SK Corp (may be SK Energy now) in the marketing department. He has a wife and two sons. In fact I think his sons are probably done with THEIR mandatory 30 months of service by now!
      Don't know what happened to Lee Sang-keun. Last time I heard from him, he was going to be an English-speaking guide for the visitors at the Olympics in Seoul (in '88, of course). ....Time flies!
      In '87, when we were on the DMZ doing our DMZ "police" duties, we got an overnight pass; and Sgt. Lee Sang-keun, familiar as he was with the mass transit (buses and trains, etc.), took me to Seoul! (G.I.s didn't have private cars back then; most of us didn't have overnight passes except only once in a while.) He showed me such places as the old Japanese government building (the one with the cupola -- which President Kim Young-sam had knocked down in the '90s) and the old royal palace behind it. ...Those were the days when they stilled had curfews and Chun Doo-hwan was giving way to Roh Tae-woo (another general) who would run for office and win.
      I remember the Saemaul flags and loudspeakers in the rural villages. I remember the grave mounds on the hillsides (these had a mound surrounded by a horse-shoe-shaped parapet with stone stele). I remember doing foot marches in winter, over the frozen rice paddies, in full MOPP gear. I will not forget the sights and smells of rural Korea (and the rats as big as cats!) ...and the little kids who were always happy to hang around us when we were training near their villages -- the littlest ones (like 3 or 4 years old) chatting us up, not understanding that we couldn't understand Korean!

    if there is a lot of anti-American feeling about Americans being in South Korea, ask any South Korean and they will tell you how grateful they are that America was on their side during the Korean war. Had America not intervened, the North would have invaded the South and the Korean peninsula would have been one of the poorest countries in the world. Instead, the South Korean per capita GDP is the 12th highest in the world.
