You're under the impression that the 2nd Infantry Division, the largest US Military population on Korea, has no Infantry in it?

I’m gonna go out on a limb and think you might have a chance...

2nd Infantry Division is located there and usually when there is an infantry division located somewhere they like to keep a few infantrymen around just to keep up appearances.

I found out this past year being stationed in Korea that 2ID doesn’t have its combat Brigades in Korea. They only 11Bs in Korea are the units that go to Korea from other stations for 9 months. Not sure when this happened.

Well SPC Private RallyPoint Member, I'm sure you, as an infantryman, will have little chances of being assigned to a support unit. Specially a SL1 Soldier... Even with the current 2ID ongoing restructure. What can I tell you? Camp Humphreys is not as bad as Area 1 (i.e. as north as you could get).

Learn Korean and before you go and you will probably get a support job.
