Changes on the Way for U.S. Forces Korea
belligerence and missile launches, however, South Korea is negotiating with
the U.S. to postpone the transfer of wartime operational control scheduled for
December 2015. Some reports say South
Korea wants to delay the transfer by as
many as eight years.
Misconduct in Alaska
Prompts Calls for Change
The resignation of Alaska’s adjutant
general over a scandal involving sexual assault and fraud allegations in
the Alaska National Guard is the latest symbol of the Army’s move to get
tough on investigating complaints.
Maj. Gen. Thomas H. Katkus resigned at the request of Gov. Sean Parnell following a federal investigation
demanded by Alaska’s two U.S. senators after they heard continued complaints. The National Guard Bureau’s
Office of Complex Investigations determined there were more than 200
cases of discrimination and sexual harassment in the Alaska National Guard
in 2013 and that problems could have
gone on for several years. Alaska Public Media has reported that a National
Guard chaplain tried in 2012 to get the
state to investigate delays in sexual assault cases and other problems.
The scathing report by the Office of
Complex Investigations found misconduct, favoritism, inadequate investigation of allegations and fear of reprisal
created a situation eroding trust in
Guard leaders, especially from alleged
victims who believe their mistreatment
was not being taken seriously. The
Guard Bureau report substantiated
complaints against at least one officer,
though action was never taken, and
found 35 percent of those surveyed
would not report discrimination for
fear of reprisal.
Parnell apologized, saying Alaska
Guard members “deserve better,” and
he defended himself from complaints
by saying he had been reassured by
Alaska Guard officials that nothing
was awry.
Sen. Mark Begich (D-AK) introduced
legislation requiring annual reports to
U.S. Army/Jonathan Koester
Several changes to U.S. Forces Korea are designed to increase readiness, strengthen the alliance and deter provocations by the increasingly
volatile North Korea.
The first rotational deployment to
Korea began last February with troops
from the 12th Cavalry Regiment, 3rd
Brigade Combat Team (BCT), 1st Cavalry Division. Those soldiers are being
replaced with about 800 soldiers from
the 8th Cavalry Regiment who also are
part of the 3rd BCT; they are to deploy
in October for nine months. The new
troops will use the equipment brought
to the peninsula by their predecessors,
including M1A2 Abrams tanks and
Bradley Fighting Vehicles. They will be
stationed near the North Korean border.
South Korean defense officials announced that early next year, the U.S.
and Korea will form a combined division with equal numbers of soldiers
from each country. It will be commanded by an American, and a South
Korean will serve as deputy. The
brigade will first be located in Uijeongbu, north of Seoul, and will move
south to Pyeongtaek with other American troops by the end of 2016.
Meanwhile, the U.S. is pushing to
retain its artillery brigade stationed
north of Seoul at its current location,
the South Korean Yonhap News
Agency reported in September. The
210th Field Artillery Brigade of the
2nd Infantry Division is stationed
near the Demilitarized Zone. The U.S.
agreed in 2002 to relocate American
forces south by 2016, but U.S. Forces
Korea commander Gen. Curtis M.
Scaparrotti has previously stated some
troops may need to stay as a deterrent
to North Korea. Other officials have
said some troops may be needed there
“temporarily.”
South Korea is in an awkward position. The country has repeatedly insisted and promised its residents that no
American forces will remain north of
Seoul. Intimidated by North Korea’s

Congress on the status of sexual assault investigations in every state.
Called the National Guard Investigations Transparency and Improvement
Act, this would give the Guard Bureau
the ability to order its own investigations without being invited by a state
and requires an annual report on the
number of sexual assault investigations in each state and their status.
Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) has a
slightly different approach. She wants
the Government Accountability Office,
the investigative arm of Congress, to
investigate how National Guard units
handle sexual assault, harassment and
discrimination complaints, and to consider whether the Uniform Code of
Military Justice would be applied to
the National Guard in every state.
Some states, like Alaska, have depended on state law rather than federal law for offenses not related to federal duties.

Army Casualties
in Afghanistan
The following U.S. Army soldiers were reported killed supporting Operation Enduring
Freedom between Aug. 1–Sept.
30, 2014. All names have been
released through DoD; families
have been notified.

U.S. troops to stay in the country after
combat operations end on Dec. 31. A
new president, Ashraf Ghani Ahmadzai,
was finally named and inaugurated,
and he agreed on a power-sharing
agreement with his ex-rival, Abdullah
Abdullah, who was named chief execu-
tive (similar to prime minister).
“We are tired of war,” Ahmadzai said
after his September swearing in. “Our
message is peace.” The agreement means
Afghanistan can call on the U.S. and
NATO if threatened, he said, but he
also requested that foreigners resist interfering in Afghan internal affairs.
The agreement, almost a year overdue, ensures that U.S. troops are exempt from prosecution in Afghanistan. Without it, all U.S. troops would
leave the country at the end of this
year just as they exited Iraq in 2010.
Army Chief of Staff Gen. Raymond
T. Odierno, who commanded those
troops in Iraq, has said for months that
U.S. soldiers need to stay in Afghanistan. “[T]heir institutions are not yet
mature enough to sustain this over the
long time,” he said early this year. The
threat in Afghanistan “is that the Taliban would come back and try to take
the government back.”
The follow-on to Operation Enduring Freedom is called Resolute Support, a mission to continue to train and
equip Afghan security forces as well as
help provide general security. The
agreement also allows the U.S. to retain some bases in Afghanistan.
Officials expect about 9,800 U.S.
troops will be in Afghanistan by the beginning of 2015, and half that number
will remain by the end of that year. By
2017, only 1,000 U.S. troops, embassy
personnel and security assistance personnel should be in-country. Afghanistan also signed a status of forces agreement with NATO that allows some international advisory troops to stay.
Big Red One HQ Deploys to Iraq
The Pentagon announced the October deployment to Iraq of about 500
soldiers from 1st Infantry Division
headquarters in Fort Riley, Kan. Approximately 200 soldiers, the first major group of 475 personnel President
Barack Obama announced he would
send, deployed to Iraq. The rest went
to another site in U.S. Central Command’s purview, which DoD declined
to name.
In Baghdad, 138 soldiers are staffing
the joint operations center and direct-

ing U.S. troops who are advising and
assisting Iraqi soldiers. Sixty-eight are
in the Kurdish capital of Erbil, performing the same functions for U.S. troops
advising Kurdish fighters known as
the Peshmerga. Ten more soldiers are
working out of the Ministry of Justice,
also in Baghdad.
According to 1st ID commanders,
the soldiers will also conduct intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance
flights. Maj. Gen. Paul E. Funk, 1st ID
commanding general, will lead them.
Funk will succeed Maj. Gen. Dana J.H.
Pittard, deputy commanding general
of operations for U.S. Army Central.
Army Cyber Grows
In Strength and Size
The activation of a new brigade, the
hiring and professional training of
more troops, and talk of a new cyber
branch testify to the growing capability
and influence of Army Cyber Command.
In September, the command activated a cyber protection brigade at Fort
Gordon, Ga. The first unit of its kind,
the brigade reflects the Army’s commitment to expanding its cyberspace capabilities. The 7th Signal Command activated the new brigade, which will
consist of 20 cyber protection teams.
Each will contain about 40 people, a
mix of soldiers and civilians, and will
conduct defensive operations for joint
and Army operations. Soldiers will
train for the new MOS—25D, or cyber
network defender—which is open to
staff sergeants through sergeants major.
The Army is also strengthening the
capabilities of its cyber force by doubling the number of soldiers in the cyber career field within the next couple
of years. Specific training for cyber
workers will be provided in a career
management field known for now as
Career Field 17. Those soldiers, some
5,000–6,000 of them, will be professional cyber-trained forces. The 17 series MOS will be only cyber and will
blend military intelligence and signals
intelligence skills. At first, many of the
soldiers will come from those backgrounds.

Fort Shafter, Hawaii, soldiers will deploy for multiple linked exercises in
Pacific nations and stay in the area
longer.
The new concept has several advantages over the former strategy of a
unit training for a few weeks and then
returning to base. It allows the U.S. to
develop closer relationships with area
nations, reinforcing the pivot to the
Pacific, and it enhances Army readiness. It is also cost-effective in a time
of shrinking budgets.
In the first Pacific Pathways deploy-
ment, more than 800 soldiers with the
2nd Stryker Brigade, 2nd Infantry Division (ID), plus supporting soldiers,
deployed for three months to participate in three different exercises. Several hundred, with nine Stryker vehicles and eight helicopters, participated
in Garuda Shield in Malaysia in September. They were accompanied by soldiers from the 110th Chemical Battalion
(Technical Escort), Joint Base LewisMcChord, Wash., part of the 48th
Chemical Brigade and 20th Chemical,
Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, Ex-
plosives Command. Several hundred
other 2nd Stryker Brigade soldiers,
with 11 Stryker vehicles and three helicopters, participated in the annual
Keris Strike exercise in Malaysia, which
also began in September.
The 2nd ID soldiers will train together during exercise Orient Shield
in Japan from late October into November. In the down time between exercises, the troops will take part in
port operations and cultural-awareness training.
