Welcome to the ROK Drop Photo Archive. I have traveled all over Korea and have a huge archive of photographs on my hard drive that I’m slowly but surely uploading and writing travel narratives for. Below you can view the various travelogs I have written that are organized by province in Korea as well as other areas of the world I have visited.
I hope you enjoy the pictures and thanks for visiting the ROK Drop.

Hey have you got any pics of Camp Long I was stationed there and Camp Page from 96 to 98 (what I can remember of it) I hated it then but now I would give anything to go back I guess thats what time does to you.
Thank you

Unfortunately Camp Long is one of the places that I do not have pictures for. Next time I am in Korea I will have to stop by Wonju and snap a few pics of the camp.

I thought in Wonju around that same time. I went to Korea around 96 and taught adults there for a 1 1/2 – 2 years. I met and married my wife there and we get back every few years to visit family…
I remember both Camp Long and Camp Eagle were slated to close as part of the USFK reformation — and after activists had kept a tent pitched at one of them over claims of soil pollution in nearby rice paddies.

13th Helicopter Company was one hell of a Party in 1959 – Unlike others that might have hated their tour of duty, this Texan enjoyed every minute he spent inside the gates, and outside the gates. What went on in the *Vil*, stays in the *Vil*. I’ll bet the Old Moose sure have aged – So have we – Yikkkkes !

GI K,
Some time ago you posted a story about USFK foreign service officers in Korea,it also had a picture of them together; maybe it was from S&S, not sure. Anyway, do you still have a link to that story? I recognized one of the dudes there as one of my old Platoon Leaders when I was a Drill Sergeant; last time I saw him was at CP TANGO during FOAL EAGLE 2007 just before I left. I’d like to try and get ahold of him again.
Thanks.

Camp Mcintyre was near Munsan. i was there in ‘67 and ‘68. It was either closed or turned over to the ROK Army in the early ’70’s. 1st bn 17th Arty returned to Ft Sill and became a field arty unit, giving up the 8″ self propelled guns

In 1969-70, I was at Cp St Barbara supporting I Corp Artillery. We had a Detachment at St B, and another one at Cp Mcintyre supporting the Artillery there. I drove between the 2 camps many times to help. I Corp Artillery was part of the reduction of forces in late 70, as was the 4th Maint Bn that I was in.
If anyone has some pictures of Camp Mcintyre that they could email me, I will add them to my web page about the Camps in Korea.
