SubstantialReduction - T (BJM)

The document discusses definitions of "substantial reduction" in various military contexts. It finds that a substantial reduction is generally defined as 25% or more, but can also mean 5% in some contexts and 50% in others related to international or joint programs. Specifically: - US and DOD codes commonly define a substantial reduction as 25% or more of spending, funding, or quantities. - In analyzing local labor markets, one study defined a substantial military presence as 5% or greater of the local workforce. - DOD guidelines state that a substantial reduction in participation in international or joint acquisition programs means a 50% or more decrease in funding or quantities allocated in the previous budget.

** T- Substantial Definitions

T – “Substantial Reduction” = 25%

US code defines a “substantial reduction” as 25% of spending in the context of


military policy.
US Code 10 (TITLE 10. ARMED FORCES SUBTITLE A. GENERAL MILITARY LAW
PART IV. SERVICE, SUPPLY, AND PROCUREMENT CHAPTER 148. NATIONAL
DEFENSE TECHNOLOGY AND INDUSTRIAL BASE, DEFENSE REINVESTMENT,
AND DEFENSE CONVERSION SUBCHAPTER II. POLICIES AND PLANNING, May 17,

"(f) Definitions. For purposes of this section: "(1) The term "major defense program"
means a program that is carried out to produce or acquire a major system (as defined in
section 2302(5) of title 10, United States Code). "(2) The terms 'substantial reduction'
and 'substantially reduced', with respect to a defense contract under a major defense
program, mean a reduction of 25 percent or more in the total dollar value of the funds
obligated by the contract.".

The DOD defines a “substantial reduction” as 25% of funding.


DOD 5/12/2003, Department of Defense, Department of Defense Instruction SUBJECT:
Operation of the Defense Acquisition System, N UMBER 5000.2 cp

E9.4.3.                                    Additional Funding Considerations.  The DoD Components shall not


terminate or substantially reduce participation in international cooperative ACAT ID
programs under signed international agreements without USD(AT&L) approval; or in
international cooperative ACAT IAM programs without ASD(C3I) approval.  A DoD
Component may not terminate or substantially reduce U.S. participation in an
international cooperative program until after providing notification to the USD(AT&L)
or the ASD(C3I).  As a result of that notification, the USD(AT&L) or the ASD(C3I) may
require the DoD Component to continue to provide some or all of the funding for that
program in order to minimize the impact on the international cooperative program. 
Substantial reduction is defined as a funding or quantity decrease of 25 percent or more
in the total funding or quantities in the latest President's Budget for that portion of the
international cooperative program funded by the DoD Component seeking the
termination or reduced participation.

A substantial reduction means a reduction of 25% or more

CONTRACT TERMINATION OR REDUCTION” DEC 2006,
http://www.acq.osd.mil/dpap/dars/dfars/html/current/252249.htm]

Definitions  “Major defense program” means a program that is carried out to produce or
acquire a major system (as defined in 10 U.S.C. 2302(5)) (see also DoD 5000.2-R,
Mandatory Procedures for Major Defense Acquisition Programs (MDAPs) and Major
Automated Information System (MAIS) Acquisition Programs. “Substantial reduction”
means a reduction of 25 percent or more in the total dollar value of funds obligated by
the contract.
Interpretation – a substantial reduction is 25% - military regulations prove.

1. Regulatory Changes--Notification Requirements for Termination or Reduction of


Defense Programs.--The DOD has issued an interim rule requiring military departments and defense
agencies to notify contractors of a potential termination of, or substantial reduction in, a defense
program. n581 Under the new rule, each military department and defense agency must
establish procedures for determining which defense programs are likely to be terminated
or substantially reduced as a result of the submission of the President's budget or
enactment of an appropriations act. Within thirty days of such submission or enactment,
agencies and military departments must notify affected contractors of the proposed
termination or reduction. Affected contractors are those with a contract of $ 500,000 or more
under a program identified as likely to be terminated or reduced by at least twenty-five percent.
Within two weeks after receiving notice from the government, contractors must notify,
among others, their affected employees and subcontractors of the proposed termination
or reduction.

25% is the definition used in military legislation.


National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1994, PUBLIC LAW 103-160 [H.R. 2401],

"(g) Definitions.--For purposes of this section:


"(1) The term 'major defense program' means a program that is carried out to produce
or acquire a major system (as defined in section 2302(5) of title 10, United States Code).
"(2) The terms 'substantial reduction' and 'substantially reduced', with respect to a major defense
program, mean a reduction of 25 percent or more in the total dollar value of contracts under the
program.".

For international cooperative programs, substantial reductions must be a


reduction of 25% or more or funding or quantity allocated in previous year’s
budget.

Termination or Reduction in Participation in International Cooperative Programs “DoD


Components shall notify and obtain the approval of the USD(AT&L), for ACAT ID, or for
ACAT IAM programs, before terminating or substantially reducing participation in
international cooperative programs under signed international agreements. The
USD(AT&L) may require the DoD Component to continue to provide some or all of the
funding for that program in order to minimize the impact on the international
cooperative program. Substantial reduction is defined as a funding or quantity decrease
of 25 percent or more in the total funding or quantities in the latest President's Budget
for that portion of the international cooperative program funded by the DoD Component
seeking the termination or reduced participation.” (DoDI 5000.02)
T – Substantial = 5% (Contextual)
A substantial military presence is 5 percent or greater.
Booth et al 2k - Ph.D. candidate in sociology at the University of Maryland. His current
research focuses on the social and economic effects that the military has on local labor
markets in the United States, April 2k
(Bradford, William W. Falk, David R. Segal, Mady Wechsler Segal, “The Impact of
Military Presence in Local Labor Markets on the Employment of Women”
Source: Gender and Society, Vol. 14, No. 2 (Apr., 2000), pp. 318-332)
This article uses Public Use Micro sample (PUMS) data drawn from the 1990 census to
explore the relationship between military presence, defined as the percentage of the local labor force
in the active-duty armed forces, and women's employment and earnings across local labor
market areas (LMAs) in the United States. Comparisons of local rates of unemployment
and mean women's earnings are made between those LMAs in which the military plays a
disproportionate role in the local labor market and those in which military presence is
low. Results suggest that women who live in labor market areas with a substantial (5 percent or
greater) military presence have, on average, lower annual earnings and higher rates of
unemployment than their counterparts who live in nonmilitary L MAs. The argument is
made that through the interaction of several socially situated conditions-including
gender, family, labor markets, human capital, and place-the military emerges as a source
of inequality in labor market out-comes for women working on or around military
installations.
T – “Substantially Reduce” = 50%
DOD defines “substantially reduce” as 50%.
DOD 96 Department of Defense Regulation, Number 5000.2R, Change 3 cp
DoD Components may not terminate or substantially reduce participation in joint ACAT
ID programs without the approval of the USD(A&T). Before any such termination or
substantial reduction is approved, the proposed termination or substantial reduction
shall be reviewed by the JROC. The USD(A&T) may require a Component to continue to
provide some or all of the funding necessary to allow the joint program to continue in an
efficient manner after approval of a Component request to terminate or substantially
reduce that Component’s participation (10 USC §2311(c)41). Substantial reduction is
defined as a funding or quantity decrease of 50% or more in the total funding or
quantities in the latest President’s Budget for that portion of the joint program funded by
the Component seeking to reduce its participation.

DOD defines substantial reduction as 50% - official guidelines prove.

an efficient manner, despite approving their request to terminate or reduce participation.
Substantial reduction is defined as a funding or quantity decrease of 50
percent or more in the total funding or quantities in the latest President's Budget
for that portion of the joint program funded by the DoD Component seeking the
termination or reduced participation.

In the context of the military, a “substantial reduction” is defined as at least


50%.

Comprehensive Base Closure Reform and Recovery Act of 1992 - Title I:
Environmental Restoration At Military Installations To Be Closed - Requires,
with respect to each military installation which is on the National Priorities List (for
substantial environmental cleanup) under the Comprehensive Environmental Response,
Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 and which is to be closed under Federal base
closure Acts or otherwise by the Department of Defense (DOD): (1) that at least 75
percent of the environmental remedial action required under Federal law be completed
before the installation is closed or substantial reductions in its operations have occurred;
and (2) that all of the required remedial action be occurred no later than two years after
such installation is closed or substantially reduced. Defines a "substantial reduction" as
the reassignment of more than 50 percent of its personnel.

Our definition is true across multiple areas of legislation.

Japan has long been one of the US military’s key base regions. There are some 38,000 US troops
stationed in Japan, along with 43,000 US family members and roughly 3,000 Department of
Defense civilians. While the US Navy continues to assess the state of its fleet, it is also
getting ships underway and clear of the rough coast in Hawaii and Seal Beach, San Diego
to protect them from turbulent seas and possible tsunami in the wake of the earthquake
that has devastated Japan, defense officials said Friday. “We’re moving things out from

Japan signed a deal with the US four years ago that was part of a broader realignment of
American troops. A key part of the plan was to relocate the Futenma air base, home to
about 2,000 Marines, to the smaller city of Nago. Okinawa is home to most of the
47,000 American troops based in Japan.

Time 10 (Why Japan and the U.S. Can't Live Without Okinawa, Jun 8 th,
http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/0,8599,1994798,00.html)

Indeed, under the world's only pacifist constitution, Japan spends about 1% of its gross
domestic product on defense. But the Japanese — and especially the Okinawans, whose
island was under U.S. control until 1972 and which currently hosts 75% of the U.S.
military presence in Japan — have expressed growing irritation at what they perceive as
their junior status in the relationship. Japan, they noted, has paid some $30 billion to
the U.S. to support the U.S. military presence in Japan since 1978. The reason for the
2006 agreement to move Futenma to a new facility in a less-populated part of Okinawa
is that the city of Ginowan now encroaches on the the current facility from all sides. The
$26 billion deal, to be largely funded by Japan, also calls for shifting 8,000 Marines from
Okinawa to Guam by 2014. For many in Okinawa, Futenma and its 2,000 American personnel have
been a perpetually noisy and polluting symbol of continuing U.S. dominance. But U.S. military leaders insist
that as long as the 3rd Marine Expeditionary Force is based on Okinawa, they need the air base, which
allows them to rapidly deploy Marines throughout the region. Stalder uses the analogy of a baseball
team to explain why the force can't do without its aircraft: "It does not do you any good
to have the outfielders practicing in one town, the catcher in another and the third
baseman somewhere else."

The Asia-Pacific region is one of the most dynamic areas of our rapidly-changing world. The fleet has to
be flexible and responsive to address a range of activities that are particularly important
in the region. It can take more than two weeks for a ship to get from San Diego to the
eastern boundary of the Area of Responsibility, and a similar amount of time to the
western boundary from Norfolk, Va. The presence of 7th Fleet’s forward-deployed forces facilitates
rapid response to natural and manmade crises in the region. At any given time, there are 60-70 ships, 200-
300 aircraft and 40,000 Navy and Marine Corps personnel assigned to the fleet. This includes forces
operating from bases in Japan and Guam and rotationally-deployed forces based in the United States.
Commander, U.S. 7th Fleet (C7F), is embarked aboard USS Blue Ridge (LCC 19), forward

American Foreign Press Service 4/11 (Lisa Daniel, U.S. Military Remains Ready to Help Japan,
http://www.defense.gov/news/newsarticle.aspx?id=63517)

The U.S. military remains ready to help Japan, even as it has repositioned many assets since a
9.0 magnitude earthquake marked a chain of disasters there one month ago, military
officials said. Numerous aftershocks have rocked northeast Japan since the March 11
earthquake, including a 6.6 magnitude aftershock reported today and a 7.1 magnitude
quake reported April 8. The U.S. military has not been called to help with the most-
recent aftershocks, but continues to give support and remains positioned to respond to
requests by the Japanese government, Pentagon spokesman Marine Corps Col. Dave
Lapan told reporters today. “We continue to provide some measure of assistance to
Japan, but certainly not at the level it was at a few weeks ago,” Lapan said. The military
sent some 20,000 troops, 140 aircraft and at least 20 ships in support of Operation
Tomodachi since March 11, according to military officials. While no U.S. ships are directly
supporting Operation Tomodachi today, several are forward deployed to Japan as part of their regular
operations, officials said. About 50,000 U.S. troops are based in Japan. “U.S. forces remain committed to
the government and people of Japan and are positioned for sustained support,” DOD public affairs
officer Navy Cmdr. Leslie Hull-Ryde said. “U.S. military forces throughout Japan
maintain the capability to provide rapid response.” The repositioning of U.S. military
assets “is an indicator of the tremendous progress the Japanese government and the
Japan Self-Defense Forces have made on the ground in dealing with this catastrophe,”
she said. The initial earthquake was followed by a tsunami and a partial meltdown of
some of Japan’s nuclear reactors, as well as multiple aftershocks in the past four weeks.
The U.S. military responded to Japan immediately, with assistance to Japanese forces, as
well as more than 2 million gallons of water, 189 tons of food, 11,960 gallons of fuel and
100 tons of relief supplies, officials said.

By 2003 the US was considering moving most of the 20,000 Marines on Okinawa to new bases that
would be established in Australia; increasing the presence of US troops in Singapore and
Malaysia; and seeking agreements to base Navy ships in Vietnamese waters and ground
troops in the Philippines. For the Marines based on Okinawa, most for months without
their families, the US is considering a major shift. Under plans on the table, all but about 5,000 of
the Marines would move, possibly to Australia.

Alongside them are the 12,500 Americans who also perished in the brutal, inch-by-inch
fight for the small, tropical island of coral 1,000 miles south of Tokyo. The United States

agreed in the aftermath of war, surrender, then occupation. There are now 24,000 US troops

the island.

possible,
http://mdn.mainichi.jp/mdnnews/news/20110219p2g00m0dm004000c.html)

Former U.S. Ambassador to Japan Edwin Reischauer told a Japanese government official in 1967
that relocating all U.S. military facilities in Okinawa to Guam was theoretically possible, declassified
Japanese diplomatic documents showed Friday. Reischauer also told the Japanese
officials that the U.S. military had estimated the cost for the relocation at $3 billion to $4
billion, showed the documents declassified by the Japanese Foreign Ministry. Reischauer
made the comment during a meeting with a Japanese diplomat in Boston on April 14,
1967, eight months after leaving the U.S. Embassy in Tokyo, according to a top-secret
cable sent the following day to the Japanese Foreign Ministry from the Japanese
Embassy in Washington. The document quoted Reischauer as saying that Japan had
enjoyed a "free ride" in its national security thanks to U.S. defense efforts, a comment
taken as speaking for some U.S. lawmakers who were dissatisfied with Tokyo and trying
to prod Japan to take a more active role in its national defense. In 2006, Japan and the
United States reached an agreement on the realignment of U.S. forces in Japan. Under the accord, the
U.S. Marine Corps' Futenma Air Station in Ginowan will be relocated to the coastal area of Nago by 2014.
The deal also includes the transfer of around 8,000 Marines to Guam from Okinawa.

sailors, soldiers, airmen, marines, and coastguardsmen that are assigned to the Pacific
Command. Now, we support CENTCOM with a portion of those forces. But, again, it
speaks to the depth of capacity that the US military has to apply globally. Specifically to
your question, DOD is supporting Operation Tomodachi with approximately 15,000 personnel. The DOD
service members, when we talk of those that are assigned across the broader region specific to Japan, it's
upwards of 55,000 total. So, there's a significant number that are committed to it. From a
resource perspective, there is the--there is over 22 ships, 140 aircraft that are committed
as well. So, it's a significant force. I think I mentioned earlier two carrier strike groups
and an amphibious ready group committed as well.

longer true these days, http://www.tokyofreepress.com/article.php?
story=20110407060545974&mode=print)

When the U.S. government offered a massive relief operation involving 18,000 troops, the Japanese
government jumped at it and named it "Operation Tomodachi." To be more precise, it should have
been named Operation Yujo because Yujo means friendship whereas Tomodachi just
means a friend, or friends. Semantics aside, however, most Japanese have really
appreciated the friendship demonstrated by the Americans because they are really fed up
with their government which has constantly mishandled the post-quake situation.

American Foreign Press Service 4/11 (Lisa Daniel, U.S. Military Remains Ready to Help Japan,
http://www.defense.gov/news/newsarticle.aspx?id=63517)

The U.S. military remains ready to help Japan, even as it has repositioned many assets since a
9.0 magnitude earthquake marked a chain of disasters there one month ago, military
officials said. Numerous aftershocks have rocked northeast Japan since the March 11
earthquake, including a 6.6 magnitude aftershock reported today and a 7.1 magnitude
quake reported April 8. The U.S. military has not been called to help with the most-
recent aftershocks, but continues to give support and remains positioned to respond to
requests by the Japanese government, Pentagon spokesman Marine Corps Col. Dave
Lapan told reporters today. “We continue to provide some measure of assistance to
Japan, but certainly not at the level it was at a few weeks ago,” Lapan said. The military sent
some 20,000 troops, 140 aircraft and at least 20 ships in support of Operation Tomodachi since March 11,
according to military officials. While no U.S. ships are directly supporting Operation
Tomodachi today, several are forward deployed to Japan as part of their regular
operations, officials said. About 50,000 U.S. troops are based in Japan. “U.S. forces
remain committed to the government and people of Japan and are positioned for
sustained support,” DOD public affairs officer Navy Cmdr. Leslie Hull-Ryde said. “U.S.
military forces throughout Japan maintain the capability to provide rapid response.” The
repositioning of U.S. military assets “is an indicator of the tremendous progress the
Japanese government and the Japan Self-Defense Forces have made on the ground in
dealing with this catastrophe,” she said. The initial earthquake was followed by a
tsunami and a partial meltdown of some of Japan’s nuclear reactors, as well as multiple
aftershocks in the past four weeks. The U.S. military responded to Japan immediately,
with assistance to Japanese forces, as well as more than 2 million gallons of water, 189
tons of food, 11,960 gallons of fuel and 100 tons of relief supplies, officials said.
Yokosuka (0)
There are no ships at Yokosuka – they all got evacuated
CNN 3/21 (U.S. military considering mandatory evacuations in Yokosuka,
http://articles.cnn.com/2011-03-21/us/japan.military.evacuation_1_voluntary-
evacuations-defense-official-troops?_s=PM:US)

The U.S. military is considering the mandatory evacuation of thousands of American troops and their
families in Japan out of concern over rising radiation levels, a senior defense official tells CNN. The
official, who did not want to be on the record talking about ongoing deliberations, says
there are no discussions to evacuate all U.S. troops across the country. The talks have
focused exclusively on U.S. troops in Yokosuka, just south of Tokyo, the official said. Yokosuka is
home to America's largest naval base in Japan. The military is monitoring radiation
levels on a constant basis. As of Monday, the U.S. Navy had no more warships in port at the base. The
aircraft carrier USS George Washington, which had been undergoing maintenance in Yokosuka, left port
Monday in order to get away from the plume of radioactive particles that could blow over the base.
Because it left port with a much smaller than normal crew, the George Washington will
not take part in the Japanese relief effort. The official said the talks originated with
Pacific Command, the military authority that directly oversees U.S. troops in the region,
but "discussions have since taken place here in Washington as well." The official told
CNN this is strictly a contingency plan, and could be accomplished "if they needed to do
it in a hurry, with gray tails," or large military transport planes like a C-17. CBS News
first reported that the evacuation were being considered. A second defense official at
Pacific Command, who would not go on the record for the same reason, would only say
they "are monitoring the situation, and will continue to do so and keep our families
informed. Prudent planning always happens." An official statement released by U.S.
Pacific Command, which oversees all military operations in Asia, states that the only
evacuations being performed now are under State Department guidelines, which calls for
voluntary evacuations of military family members, paid for by the U.S. government. A
flight carrying 154 military family members left Japan Monday, flying into
Seattle/Tacoma International Airport, according to Lt. Commander Bill Lewis, a
spokesman for U.S. Northern Command. That followed a flight that departed Saturday
with 230 people on board.

Their ships aren’t in dock; why they’re considering getting paid extra

http://www.stripes.com/news/pacific/earthquake-disaster-in-japan/servicemembers-
aboard-ships-won-t-get-extra-hardship-pay-1.140041)

Defense Department policy only allows land areas to be designated as a hardship


location, said Eileen Lainez, spokeswoman for the Office of the Secretary of Defense.
“Career sea pay is paid to members for enduring similar hardships … and is intended to recognize the
greater than normal rigors of sea duty,” Lainez said. Sea pay varies but begins at $50 per month
and increases to hundreds of dollars per month based on rank and experience, according
to military pay charts. If a sailor or Marine is assigned to a ship at Yokosuka Naval Base – which is in a
hardship area – those servicemembers will not receive hardship pay, even when their ships return to the
base. Ship-based servicemembers will only receive the hardship pay if they receive
temporary orders to a shore command for at least 30 days, defense officials said. Federal
civilian employees will earn an extra 10 percent of their base pay for working in the same
areas. For example, a consular officer earning $60,000 per year in base pay will earn an
extra $500 per month for as long as the 18 prefectures are deemed hardship locations.
The hardship allowance will remain in effect until the end of the State Department’s
authorized departure program, according to a State Department memo. Some sailors
who spoke with Stars and Stripes on Tuesday said they thought the hardship pay was a
waste of money, especially given the military’s current budget shortfalls. Congress’
inability to pass a permanent 2011 federal budget bill has left billion-dollar holes in the
Navy’s budget, forcing it to delay orders and cancel ship maintenance projects, according
to congressional testimony.

Several aspects of the U.S.-R.O.K. security relationship are changing as the U.S. moves
from a leading to a supporting role. In 2004 an agreement was reached on the return of
the Yongsan base in Seoul--as well as a number of other U.S. bases--to the R.O.K. and
the eventual relocation of all U.S. forces to south of the Han River. Those movements are
expected to be completed by 2016. In addition, the U.S. and R.O.K. agreed to reduce the number
of U.S. troops in Korea to 25,000 by 2008, but a subsequent agreement by the U.S. and R.O.K. presidents
in 2008 has now capped that number at 28,500, with no further troop reductions planned. The
U.S. and R.O.K. have also agreed to transfer wartime operational control to the R.O.K.
military on April 17, 2012.

China Daily 03 (US pulling troops away from Korean DMZ,
http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/en/doc/2003-06/06/content_168113.htm)

In a historic move after a half-century, the United States will pull its ground troops away from the
Demilitarized Zone separating North and South Korea and consolidate them at bases well to the south. The
realignment, announced in a joint US-South Korean statement Thursday, has been in the
works for months. It reflects US Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld's push to break a Cold War
mold of assumptions about the usefulness of having troops along the tense DMZ. The moves in Korea
are part of a broader Pentagon strategy to realign US forces around the globe, to include
likely reductions in Germany and the establishment of new bases in eastern Europe. Last
month the United States pulled its troops out of Saudi Arabia after a 12-year stay. But
also, residents have complained that the sprawling 8th US Army headquarters in
downtown Seoul occupies prime real estate and worsens the city's chronic traffic
congestion. Younger generations of South Koreans see the foreign military presence in
their capital as a slight to national pride. When US President Bush and Roh met in May,
they agreed that South Korea's growing economic strength allows the country to play a
bigger military role in defending itself. In Rumsfeld's view, moving US troops away from
the DMZ and consolidating them at perhaps two main "hub" bases south of Seoul will
create a more formidable fighting force. It will not remove the troops from danger, and
in Rumsfeld's view it does not weaken the US deterrent at a time when North Korea is
openly pursuing an expanded nuclear arsenal. The United States has assured South
Korea it will spend more than $11 billion over the next four years on 150 improvements
in the combined US-South Korean defenses. No details were provided. The new
arrangement will end a US troop presence on the DMZ that dates to the end of the 1950-
53 Korean War, when a 151-mile buffer zone was established along the approximate line
of ground contact between the opposing forces at the time a July 27, 1953, truce was
signed. In a two-phase movement, US troops at bases scattered near the DMZ will be moved to "hub
bases" at least 75 miles south of the Demilitarized Zone, according to the joint statement.

Time 03 (South Korea: Run DMZ,
http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,457403,00.html)

It's an enduring relic of the cold war: more than 15,000 U.S. troops stationed just south of the Korean
peninsula's Demilitarized Zone well within range of North Korean artillery. But the trip wire the boots-
on-the-ground guarantee that an attack on South Korea would automatically bring U.S.
intervention may soon be gone. Last week, Seoul and Washington announced U.S. troops will pull
back at least 50 km to bases south of Seoul over the next few years. It makes military sense a few thousand
grunts were never going to block an invasion by the 1.1 million-strong North Korean military. And in an
era of precision-guided munitions, officials insist the pullback won't undermine the U.S.-
South Korean defense alliance or send the wrong signal to Pyongyang. Says Lieut.
Colonel Steven Boylan, a spokesman for U.S. forces in South Korea: "Everything we are
doing is to enhance the alliance, not diminish it." With anti-American sentiment still
strong in South Korea, the U.S. decision might seem like a boon to President Roh Moo
Hyun; in his younger days, he supported the withdrawal of American troops. No danger
of that here: the move comes with a $11 billion investment to bolster U.S. defenses on the
peninsula.

other units. Prior to 2004 the total Army presence in the region was nearly 27,500
soldiers, of which 13,753 were assigned to the 2nd Infantry Division. However, it is
important to point out that the Department of Defense indicated during a briefing on
July 23, 2003 that the United States Army had some 4,000 additional soldiers in South
Korea than what had been previously disclosed by the military. It was not clear is this is a
mistake or not. If true, this would have brought the total number of soldiers in South
Korea to 31,460. In any event, with the 2nd Brigade Combat Team going to Iraq in August 2004, the
total number of troops declined by 5,000, to a total of 22,500 Army soldiers

US Naval Forces, Korea is particularly small, numbering around 293 sailors and 52 marines. CNFK
normally has no seagoing forces assigned, though its personnel are assigned to various joint,
combined, and Navy billets throughout the ROK peninsula. These personnel are actively
engaged in planning and execution of numerous operations and exercises throughout the
Korean theater. There is one ship that has been present in the region for over 30 years, that being the
USS Pueblo which was captured on 23 January 1968. She is currently located at
Pyongyang

Troops in Korea serve as a liason to the 7th fleet – which is based in Yokosuka
CNFK No Date (About CNFK, https://www.cnic.navy.mil/Korea/AboutCNIC/index.htm)

CNFK is the regional commander for the U.S. Navy in the Republic of Korea and provides leadership and
expertise in naval matters to area military commanders, including the Commander for the United
Nations Command, the Republic of Korea and U.S. Combined Forces Command, and
Commander, U.S. Forces Korea. CNFK also serves as liaison to the Republic of Korea Navy, the
Combined Forces Commander staff in armistice and in wartime and to the Commander,
U.S. 7th Fleet, based in Yokosuka.

Look we shouldn’t need cards for this – there are no actual ships based in
Korea. The fact that the USS George Washington had to come up to Korea to
project power is a reason why there is no possibility for engagement

And even if they win we might have a few ships, Yokosuka is the only thing
West of Hawaii that could actually maintain a fleet

Naval War College., “CHINESE MISSILE STRATEGY AND THE U.S. NAVAL
PRESENCE IN JAPAN”, NAVAL WAR COLLEGE, accessed 10/1/10)

The indispensability of the ship-repair and maintenance facilities at Yokosuka emerges as another
common theme in the Chinese literature. Analysts in China often note that Yokosuka is the
only base west of Hawaii that possesses the wherewithal to handle major carrier repairs. Some have
concluded that Yokosuka is irreplaceable as long as alternative sites for a large repair station remain
unavailable. Li Daguang, a professor at China’s National Defense University and a frequent
commentator on naval affairs, casts doubt on Guam as a potential candidate, observing
that the island lacks the basic infrastructure and economies of scale to service carriers. 27 China’s
Jianchuan Zhishi (Naval and Merchant Ships) published a translated article from a
Japanese military journal, Gunji Kenkyu (Japan Military Review), to illustrate the physical
limits of Guam as a permanent home port for carriers. 28

We only have one carrier and it’s based in Yokosuka – removing it would
destroy capabilities because of lag time between missions
Eaglan 08 (Mackenzie, Senior Policy Analyst for National Security, Aircraft Carriers Are
Crucial, http://heritage.org/Research/Commentary/2008/08/Aircraft-Carriers-Are-
Crucial)

The Navy also should look to homeport additional carriers in either Hawaii or Guam. For
the past decade the only carrier home-ported outside the continental United States has been the Kitty
Hawk in Yokosuka, Japan. From California, it can take two weeks for a carrier strike group to travel to East
Asia and three weeks to reach the Persian Gulf. Shaving off this time by positioning a carrier in
Guam, for example, would allow ships to respond more quickly to unforeseen crises. It's
time to give aircraft carriers their due. They're not weapons platforms from a bygone era,
but rather flexible tools of national security that can offer a vast array of capabilities.
Congress was correct to stop the Navy from reducing the carrier fleet below the already-
low level of 11 carriers. Now it must be prepared to back up its foresightedness by
funding whichever option the Navy determines best for managing the looming
Enterprise/Ford shortfall. When the question is, "where are the carriers?" we need to
ensure the answer is, "plentiful, and ready to serve."
