Camp Red Cloud
US Army Garrison Red Cloud
Camp Red Cloud is located in Uijongbu City. CRC covers around 170 acres of land in the northwestern edge of Uijongbu City. Camp Red Cloud is located between Seoul and the DMZ. Camp Red Cloud is home to the 2nd Infantry Division headquarters, located about 40 km north of the capital city of Seoul. The Division is the most powerful and forward-deployed division in the US Army. The Camp population was approximately 1,600, with 1,200 being US military personnel, 60 being civilians contracted to the Depatment of Defense and 340 being classified as “other.” Its climate features included, on average, summers between 80 and 90 oF, winters between -5 and 30 oF, and 48-56″ of rain during a rainy season between July and August.

The primary mission of the facility is to act as the Headquarters of the 2nd Infantry Division and the Division’s signal support (122nd Signal Battalion). USAG Red Cloud, headquartered at Camp Red Cloud, subsequently part of Installation Management Command Korea (IMCOM-K), provided installation management and base operations support for 10 camps in the 2nd ID area of operations (Area 1) in the Republic of Korea. Camps included Camp Red Cloud (CRC), Camp Stanley, Camp Page, Camp Essayons, Camp Kyle, Camp Sears, Camp Jackson, Camp LaGuardia, Camp Falling Water, and Camp Kwangsari.

This facility is the centerpiece facility of the Camp Red Cloud Garrison (subsequently US Army Garrison Red Cloud) and home of the 2nd Infantry Division. Army Community Service was provided. Also provied were a Housing Office, Education Center, and Family Employment Assistance. However, family quarters were not available. All but 76 of the Division’s soldiers serve one-year unaccompanied tours. All soldiers live in on-post quarters.

The installation was named in honor of Medal of Honor recipient Cpl. Red Cloud on Armed Forces Day, 18 May 1957. More than 130 American servicemen were awarded the Nation’s highest honor for actions during the Korean War. Today many of those honored names have been bestowed on camps and facilities throughout the Republic of Korea.

At about 0300 hours on 6 August 1998, after hours of torrential monsoon rains, the side of a mountain collapsed and blocked a river that ran along the perimeter of Camp Red Cloud. The raging water diverted through the center of the camp and inundated every thing in its path, including the 2nd Infantry Division Museum. When the floodwaters hit, most people were sleeping and those caught in the waters struggled to survive the chaos and confusion. Sadly 3 US soldiers died that dreadful night. Hours later the museum’s noncommissioned officer in charge (NCOIC) and a Korean soldier attached to the US Army (KATUSA) were the first to enter the museum. They found a building almost completely full of muddy water, 36 inches deep in some rooms. The water entered one side of the building and filled it up. When the doors were opened on the opposite side of the building, a “river” of water ran out again. Left behind was a combination water and mud, 6 to 12 inches deep, in all but 2 rooms. Soldiers immediately began rescuing artifacts from flooded display cases and moving them to a dry room.

Part of the 1998 flood recovery construction effort, project design began in early December of that year with a charette. That week-long intense meeting and fast track process cut 4 months off the normal design time for a project of this type. The $5.4 million project was completed in April 2001.

On 24 November 1999, the groundbreaking ceremony for a consolidated administration facility at Camp Red Cloud was hosted by the Far East District and the project contractor, Daelim Industrial Company.

Camp Red Cloud was one of the 42 camps north of Seoul authorized Hardship Duty Pay of $150 per month as of 1 January 2001. The Hardship Duty Pay is paid to troops who are permanently assigned to areas where it is authorized or who serve 30 consecutive days of temporary duty in those areas. Several factors are considered in determining whether a location qualified for the pay: climate, physical and social isolation, sanitation, disease, medical facilities, housing, food, recreational and community facilities, political violence, harassment and crime. The extra pay provides meaningful financial recognition to troops assigned in areas where living conditions are substantially below US standards.

FASTBACK
The FASTBACK system that was replaced in Korea is reflective of the typical legacy mw systems used by the US Army to support worldwide long haul communication requirements. The FASTBACK system (seven individual links) provided a secure reliable means of transmitting bulk data collected along the Demilitarized Zone to command groups located in the southern part of the country. The equipment (i.e., radios and multiplexers) supporting the FASTBACK system had been in operation for over fifteen years, utilizing technology that was over twenty years old. The FASTBACK system consisted of an AN/FRC-162 radio and AN/FCC-97 multiplexer. In the late 1990s it was replaced by a high speed (155 Mbps) SONET digital microwave radio that utilize the digital data multiplexer (DDM)-2000 OC3 multiplexer. The Digital Microwave Upgrade DMU Phase I is a good example of what occurs when the link bandwidth is increased (8 DS1s to 84 DS1s (three 45 Mbps DS3)) with high speed SONET digital microwave and interface requirements to existing older, low speed mw technology. The Yongsan to Madison, Osan to Madison, and Camp Humphreys to Madison FASTBACK links were replaced during Phase I with the Harris MegaStar 2000 SONET radio. The remaining FASTBACK mw links between Madison and Kamaksan, Kangwhado, and Songnam, and Kamaksan and Yawolsan, were replaced during DMU Phase III. In conjunction with the DMU, the digital patch and access systems (DPAS) at Yongsan, Osan, and Camp Humphreys were upgraded to support up to three DS3s each.

「韓美野戰司」, 오늘 해체식 거행 19920626
——————————————————————————–

(서울=聯合) 세계 유일의 연합야전군으로 그동안 우리나라 서부전선을 방어해온 한미연합야전사령부(CFA:사령관 윌리엄 카펜터 美육군중장)가 오는 1일 정식 해체된다.

미2사단과 한국군 2개군단등으로 구성된 한미야전사는 이로써 지난 80년 창설된 지 12년만에 부대 깃발을 내리게 됐다.

한미야전사는 정식해체에 앞서 26일 오후 로버트 리스카시 한미연합사령관, 宋膺燮 합참제1차장등 군관계자들이 참석한 가운데 경기도 의정부의 `캠프 레드 클라우드’에서 해체식을 가졌다.

한미야전사의 해체는 한반도 방위에 대한 한국군과 주한미군의 점진적인 역할 변경과 주한미군 감축계획에 따른 것으로 그동안 이 사령부에 배속돼 있던 병력은 평시작전통제권 이양조치의 하나로 올해안에 한국군 4성장군으로 보임키로 한 한미연합사(CFC) 예하 지상군구성군사령부(GCC)의 직접 통제를 받게 된다.
국가간 야전연합군으로는 세계에서 유일한 한미야전사의 뿌리는 6.25전쟁 당시 낙동강방어작전, 인천상륙작전등에 참가했던 美 제1군단으로 이 부대는 55년 6월 `제1집단군사령부’로 부대 명칭을 바꾸고 의정부 `캠프 레드 클라우드’에 주둔하기시작했다.

`제1집단군사령부’는 그뒤 71년 7월 미군역사상 처음으로 한·미군이 혼합 편성된 `한미1군단’으로 명칭이 바뀌었고 이어 80년 3월14일 양국정부의 합의에 따라 `한미연합야전군사령부’로 정식 승격됐었다..(끝)
