  • I was stationed at rc4 in 1983. What a story I have that I only had to stay in Country for just under 9 months. One sergeant who served with me still owes me $600. Guess I'll never receive it. :) Would like to hear from any of my old friends from that time.
  • I was probably one of the last people stationed here in January of '92. We had to shut it down. We handed it over to the ROK in June, and relocated to Camp Hovey. I was sad to leave. We had our own bowling alley, Class 6, and pizza place. Joesph Goolsby if you ever read this look me up brother.
  • Anybody know of SSG. Cantrell around '90 - '92 ?
  • I do remember SSG Cantrell. Great guy. Good times back then. I was there in 89-91.
  • I was sent TDY to Camp Pelham in fall of 1971 to escort ROK Army convoys of US materials to Camp Humphries. ROK Army drivers didn't speak english, I'd been in country about 3 days, quite interesting. I was sent with Spec 4 Jessie Contrearas and PFCJohn McComas a couple other guys. We used to eat at RC4 when we could, I was in Bco 802 Engineers from Camp Mercer near Kimpo. Anyone remember the officer's club at Pelham, they had real German Loenbrau. Not sure why they let us peons in but they did.

  • I was there, right at the end. I was in Stinger platoon and stationed there from Nov '91 through sometime mid '92. When we shut it down I went to Stanton, then PLDC and then PCSed to Ft. Bliss at the end of '92. RC#4 was a great gig. A short cab ride to Munsan and then a train ride to Seoul for the weekend, all without a Warrior Pass or whatever it was you needed to get out of the Western Corridor for the weekend. I had some great times at RC#4.

  • Hey Stan, how are you my friend. Dan and I are both on Facebook, you can look us up there.
  • Maurice Evans was there in 81-82 167 ADA
  • Mr. Dudley, I was in A Battery during 1972 - 1974 and 1978 -1979. When I got there in 72 the Vulcans had just arrived and had no radars. We had a mission in those days to secure the two bridges spanning the Imjim river in the Western Corridor, i.e. Freedom bridge and Libby bridge. I was there when MG Emerson (the Gunfighter) arrived. He referred to Vulcans as his "fastest guns." We fired the Vulcans a lot at Rodriguez and Nightmare Ranges. Went to Sea Range in 73 and had to deal with "infiltrators" all the way down there! The infiltrators came in from the Yellow Sea between the Sea Range Camp and the village of Dae Chon. Their target was the Hawk Missile site approximately 10Km from the beach. We sent a platoon to secure the perimeter of the missile site. We secured the perimeter and didn't have one round of ammunition for the Vulcans or the M16s as we had arrived at Sea Range before our basic load had gotten there. I'll stop here. Korea was a great soldering experience. "Clear the Sky."
