Camp Stanton

Camp Stanton is located southeast of Munsan and east-northeast of Munaemi in the Paju plain. The Imjin River is to the northwest and the Han River is to the southwest. The Kwangju Mountain Range, an offshoot of the Taebaek Mountains lies to the east.

Camp Stanton is one of the forty-two camps north of Seoul authorized Hardship Duty Pay of $150 per month as of 01 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.

Army Community Service is not available. The 2nd Infantry Division’s 17 installations operate on a hub system that gives Division soldiers access to services not available on their installations. Camp Stanton is near Camp Howze, which offers many of the services not available on Camp Stanton.
