U.S. seeks strategic flexibility of troops in Korea with move of command
By Byun Duk-kun
SEOUL, June 5 (Yonhap) -- The United States is moving to pull the headquarters of the Eighth U.S. Army (EUSA) out of Korea and merge it with the U.S. Army Pacific Command in Hawaii, officials here said Thursday, a move long opposed by Seoul that will increase the strategic flexibility of U.S. troops stationed here.
The officials said the apparent move of the EUSA command will have little effect on the combat capability of the U.S. Forces Korea (USFK) as the main elements of the U.S. Army will remain here.
