WELCOME TO CAMP HUMPHREYS
9 NOVEMBER 2013
Team Camp Humphreys & Special Guests,
Welcome to Camp Humphreys, South Korea, home to some of the finest
Soldiers, Civilians, and Families the Army has to offer.
We are excited to host this year’s Armed Forces Classic and consider it an
honor to have championship athletes compete here.
I invite each and every one of you to take advantage of all that Camp Humphreys
and the host nation communities surrounding our installation have to offer.
But most importantly, I would like to thank the men and women who are serving
in Korea, thousands of miles away from home, to support our Alliance, defend
the Republic of Korea, and provide security and stability in the region.
Enjoy the game!

SNAPSHOT OF THE UNITED STATES ARMY
United Nations Security Council promptly passed
Resolutions 82, 83, and 84, calling on United
Nation member states to assist South Korea in
repelling the attack and authorizing the U.S. to
designate the commander of a unified force under
the U.N. flag to defend the ROK. In July 1950, South
Korean President Syngman Rhee signed the “Pusan
Letter” and gave General Douglas MacArthur,
Commander-in-Chief of United Nations Command
(UNC), operational control over all ROK forces.
This step effectively united all allied forces under a
single, unified command.
The United States Army is the main branch of the
United States Armed Forces responsible for landbased military operations. The U.S. Army is also
the largest and oldest established branch of the
U.S. military. The modern Army has its roots in
the Continental Army, which was formed on June
14, 1775, to meet the demands of the American
Revolutionary War.
The primary mission of the Army is, “to fight and win
our Nation’s wars by providing prompt, sustained
land dominance across the full range of military
operations and spectrum of conflict in support of
combatant commanders.”
The Army has been in a state of continuous war for
the past twelve years, the longest in our Nation’s
history. More than 167,000 Soldiers are deployed
or forward stationed in nearly 160 countries
worldwide. The Army remains a key guardian of our
national security.
America’s Army is the best trained, best equipped,
and best led fighting force in the world, providing a
credible and capable instrument of national power.
The Army’s ability to provide strategic land power
for the Nation makes it uniquely suited to meet these
requirements. The Army’s ability to rapidly deploy
task organized forces, from company to corps-level,
over extended distances, sustain them, and deliver
precise, discriminate results is unmatched.
The Army’s highly ready, responsive, and capable
ground forces prevent conflict through deterrence,
by shaping the operational environment and, when
necessary, winning the Nation’s wars.
THE REPUBLIC OF KOREA
AND UNITED STATES ALLIANCE
The unbreakable bonds between the United States
and the Republic of Korea (ROK) were forged during
the Korean War. Newly liberated from colonization,
the Republic of Korea faced a severe test on June
25, 1950, when North Korea launched a surprise
attack across the 38th Parallel. In response, the
4
CAMP HUMPHREYS I SOUTH KOREA
The “blood-forged ROK-U.S. Alliance” was created
at a great price. The bitter three-year conflict resulted
in more than 33,000 U.S. service members killed in
action, more than 92,000 wounded, and another
8,000 who remain unaccounted for to this day.
The ROK also suffered grave losses with more than
220,000 combat deaths, and 700,000 wounded.
The civilian casualties on both sides are estimated to
be as high as two million.
After the Armistice Agreement was signed on July
27, 1953, Seoul and Washington signed a Mutual
Defense Treaty on October 1, 1953, which authorized
the continued stationing of U.S. forces in the ROK.
In 1978, the newly established ROK-U.S. Combined
Forces Command (CFC) took over as the Alliance’s
warfighting command. Since then, UNC continues
to enforce and maintain the Armistice Agreement,
while CFC plans and manages resources in order to
carry out its mission of defending the ROK.
The ROK-U.S. Alliance matches its shared values with
deeds, supporting international security around the
globe. The ROK fought alongside the United States in
Vietnam and deployed with the United States to Iraq
and Afghanistan. In addition, the ROK conducted
counter-piracy operations off the coast of Somalia
and currently performs peacekeeping operations in
eight locations with the United Nations. These and
other endeavors highlight the breadth and depth
of the ROK-U.S. partnership and demonstrate the
expanding nature of ROK military capabilities and
commitment to global security interests.

designated as the 23rd Direct Support Group) was
activated as a separate installation command of the
Eighth U.S. Army, responsible for providing direct
support, supply, maintenance, munitions storage,
and the Eighth U.S. Army Milk Plant.
In 1974, with the activation of the 19th Support
Brigade, Camp Humphreys was re-designated as
U.S. Army Garrison, Camp Humphreys (USAGCamp Humphreys). While USAG-Camp Humphreys
remained responsible for all affairs affecting
personnel stationed here, the 19th Support Command
was responsible for supporting all Eighth U.S. Army
and subordinate unit mission requirements.
United States Army Garrison Humphreys (USAG-H)
supports the Army’s warfighting mission on Camp
Humphreys by working to provide standardized,
effective, and efficient services, facilities and
infrastructure to the Soldiers, Civilians, and Families
stationed here.
Camp Humphreys is on its way to becoming a
premier military assignment, globally positioned to
respond to national or international crises in the
Pacific Rim.
Located within the seaport city of Pyeongtaek, along
the western coast of South Korea, and approximately
40 miles south of Seoul, Camp Humphreys is home to
the Army’s most active airfield in the Pacific and the
center of the largest construction and transformation
project in the U.S. Department of Defense’s history.
In addition to its airfield, there are several U. S. Army
tactical and direct support units located on Camp
Humphreys, including the 2nd Combat Aviation
Brigade, elements of the 1st Signal Brigade, 501st
Military Intelligence Brigade, 65th Medical Brigade,
and many other military units and commands.
Later, the 23rd Direct Support Group and 19th
Support were renamed 23rd Support Group (23rd
SG) and 19th Theater Army Area Command (19th
TAAC). On June 17, 1996, the U.S. Army Support
Activity Area III (USASA Area III) was established
and given responsibility for the Camp Humphreys
peacetime support mission.
In 2004, an agreement was signed between the
United States and South Korean governments to
move the bulk of U.S. forces to garrisons south of
the Han River and relocate the United States Forces
Korea and United Nations Command Headquarters
to Camp Humphreys. These movements are expected
to transform Camp Humphreys into the largest U.S.
Army garrison in Asia.
With the creation of U.S. Army Installation
Management Command, USASA Area III was redesignated as U.S. Army Garrison Humphreys on
March 15, 2007.
On Nov. 13, 2007, United States Forces Korea
(USFK) and South Korean officials conducted a
groundbreaking ceremony signifying the beginning
of Camp Humphreys’ expansion.
MISSION
The mission of U.S. Army Garrison Humphreys is
to provide Soldiers, Civilians, and their Families
stationed here with a quality of life commensurate
with the quality of their service.
HISTORY
The history of Camp Humphreys dates back to the
beginning of the 20th century when, in 1919, the
Japanese military built the Pyeongtaek Airfield.
Later, during the Korean War, Pyeongtaek Airfield
was repaired and enhanced by the U.S. Air Force
to accommodate a U.S. Marine Air Group and the
614th Tactical Control Group. During and after the
war, the airfield carried the simple designation of
K-6 on military maps.
In 1962, the garrison was renamed Camp Humphreys
in honor of Chief Warrant Officer 2 Benjamin K.
Humphreys, a pilot assigned to the 4th Transportation
Company, who died in a helicopter accident.
In 1964, Humphreys District Command (later re-

TRANSFORMATION AND RESTATIONING
To posture forces in support of U.S. and ROK national
interests on the Korean Peninsula, both governments
agreed to consolidate U.S. Forces Korea into two
enduring hubs, the largest of which will be Camp
Humphreys. By moving into less congested southern
areas of the peninsula, the U.S. Army will improve
readiness and efficiencies, while further enhancing
its partnership with local communities.
In the coming years, the Camp Humphreys military
community population will more than triple in size,
from 10,000 to 36,000 Soldiers, Civilians, and
their Family members. Main construction projects
underway include unit headquarters buildings,
motor pools, barracks, Family housing, medical
facilities, a military communications complex, a
commissary, a post exchange, schools, and child
development centers. Several new barracks, Family
housing units, and supporting underground utility
systems are already completed and occupied.
These initiatives will facilitate transformation of the
ROK-U.S. Alliance and the achievement of common
strategic objectives. They will also assist in the
attainment of the ROK-U.S. Alliance’s objectives to
ensure credible deterrence and maintain stability
while improving USFK capacity to respond to future
defense initiatives.

ARMY VALUES
Many people know what the words Loyalty, Duty,
Respect, Selfless Service, Honor, Integrity, and
Personal Courage mean. But how often do you see
someone actually live up to them? Soldiers learn
these values in detail during Basic Combat Training
(BCT) and from then on, they live them every day in
everything they do — whether they’re on the job or
off. In short, the Seven Core Army Values are what
being a Soldier is all about.
GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY HOYAS
Washington, D.C.
HEAD COACH
In nine seasons as the head coach of the program he has
been around since his youth, John Thompson III has made
his mark not only on the Georgetown men’s basketball
program, but in the elite circles of college basketball.
Thompson, who has been a collegiate head coach for 13
seasons, has compiled several coaching milestones:
• Since his arrival on the Hilltop, the Hoyas have reached
the postseason in all nine seasons.
• Including an appearance in 2013, Georgetown has
been selected to the NCAA Tournament in seven of the
last nine seasons.
• In five of the team’s seven NCAA Tournament
appearances, the Blue & Gray have been seeded among
the top three teams, earning three No. 2 seeds (2007,
2008, 2013) and two No. 3 seeds (2010, 2012).
• In the last seven seasons, Georgetown is one of only four
schools nationally to have made at least one appearance
in the Associated Press Top 25 in seven-straight years.
• In 2006-07, Thompson led the program to a 30-7
record as the Hoyas won the BIG EAST Tournament
Championship, the NCAA East Regional and advanced
to the Final Four for the first time since 1985.
• In 2007-08, the Hoyas won back-to-back BIG EAST
Regular Season titles (2006-07, 2007-08), posting a twoyear record of 28-6 against conference opponents
• In 2012-13, the Blue & Gray won the BIG EAST Regular
Season Championship, winning 11-straight games at one
point, and Thompson was named the BIG EAST Coach of
the Year.
• He has led the Hoyas to three appearances in the BIG
EAST Tournament Championship game in nine years.
• He has twice been named the Black Coaches Association
(BCA) Male Coach of the Year and was named the 2007
National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC)
Coach of the Year.
Recognized as an outstanding talent evaluator who has
been nationally-recognized for his in-game coaching,
tremendous vision and character, outstanding recruiting
and his ability to connect with players, John Thompson
III was introduced as Georgetown University 17th Head
Coach on April 20, 2004.
Thompson arrived on the Hilltop in 2004 with a tremendous
pedigree. The second Head Coach at Georgetown
named John Thompson, he is the child of one Hall of Fame
coach and the student of another, having played for the
legendary Pete Carril as an undergraduate at Princeton.
Georgetown won its third BIG EAST Regular Season
title under Thompson during the 2012-13 season, when
the team posted a 14-4 conference record to finish
atop the league standings. Along the way, the Hoyas
won 11-straight games against conference opponents,
including
regular season sweep of long-time rival
Syracuse. The Hoyas were a No. 2 seed in the NCAA
Tournament and finished the year with a 25-7 overall
record. Sophomore forward Otto Porter Jr. was named
the BIG EAST Player of the Year and earned First Team AllAmerican honors while also being finalist for the Wooden
Award and the Naismith Trophy.
One of his best coaching seasons came during the 201112 season, when he guided a young Hoya team that
was picked to finish in 10th place in the BIG EAST to
a tie for fourth place. Georgetown finished the season
with a 24-9 record and was seeded No. 3 in the NCAA
Tournament and advanced to the second round. Highlight
wins included a 91-88 overtime thriller against then-No.
8 Memphis in the Maui Invitational and an impressive
road win at then-No. 4 Louisville to start BIG EAST
play. Senior guard Jason Clark was a First Team All-BIG
EAST selection and received the league’s Sportsmanship
Award, while senior center Henry Sims was a Third Team
All-BIG EAST selection and Hollis Thompson earned
honorable mention honors.
Off the court, Thompson has been an active member of
Georgetown University and a presence in the Washington,
D.C. community. He speaks at a variety of alumni events
throughout the year and has annually joined the members
of the Georgetown University Wall Street Alliance in
New York City each October. Through his work with his
self-named foundation, the JTIII Foundation (which was
founded in 2007), Thompson and his wife, Monica, have
worked to aid community-based charities that serve at-risk
children and families.
Thompson, 43, grew up in Washington, D.C., where he
graduated from Gonzaga College High School. As a high
school senior he was
named first team
All-Metro by the
Washington Post.
Thompson’s
wife,
Monica, is also
a Princeton grad
(Class of `89). They
have three children:
Morgan, age 13;
John Wallace, age
10; and Matthew,
age 8.

SEASON PREVIEW
The Georgetown University men’s basketball team
enters the 2013-14 season with veteran leadership and
experienced players after a 2012-13 season that saw the
team finish with a 25-7 record and win the BIG EAST
Conference regular season championship.
One of the challenges the Hoyas will face, however, is
finding a way to replace BIG EAST Player of the Year
and First Team All-American Otto Porter Jr., a first round
pick of the Washington Wizards in the NBA Draft. Porter
Jr. finished the season leading the team in scoring (16.2
ppg) and rebounding (7.5 rpg) and was a candidate for
virtually every player of the year award.
rebounds in wins at Notre Dame and Syracuse. Senior
guard Aaron Bowen (1.8 ppg and 1.2 rpg) appeared in
24 games and showed flashes, with eight points in a win
over Providence and hitting the winning basket against
Louisville. Sophomore guard Stephen Domingo appeared
in 20 games and is expected to contribute this season.
Two newcomers expected to see significant time include
junior center Joshua Smith, a transfer from UCLA, and
freshman forward Reggie Cameron.
Head Coach John Thompson III, entering his 10th season
on the Hilltop, has faced that question year after year –
how do you replace someone? And each year, Thompson
and his team have found a way to respond, witnessed by
reaching the NCAA Tournament in each of the last four
seasons and seven of the last nine overall.
Georgetown will turn to its upperclassmen to lead the
way this season, where senior guard Markel Starks and
do-everything forward Nate Lubick return as the most
experienced players on the team. Starks, a third-team
All-BIG EAST selection last year, finished second on the
team in scoring with 12.8 points per game, led the team
with 3.0 assists per game and connected on a team-high
61 three-point field goals. Lubick, a starter for the last 78
games dating back to his freshman season in 2010-11,
did a little bit of everything for the Blue & Gray, finishing
fifth on team in scoring (7.1 ppg), third in rebounding (5.4
rpg) and second in assists (2.9 apg) while connecting on
59.1 percent of his field goals.
32
Starks will be joined in the backcourt by sophomore
D’Vauntes Smith-Rivera and that duo will form a guard
pair that, arguably, is one of the best in the BIG EAST
Conference.
Smith-Rivera, an All-BIG EAST Rookie
selection last year, appeared in all 32 games and
averaged 8.9 points and 3.0 rebounds while hitting 39
three-point field goals.
4
Two other starters from last year should be back in those
spots again, with junior center Mikael Hopkins and junior
guard Jabril Trawick. Hopkins started all 32 games last
season, averaging 5.9 points and 2.9 rebounds. Trawick,
one of the hardest working players in college basketball,
averaged, 5.9 points, 2.9 rebounds and 1.9 assists last
season.
Thompson and Georgetown will have depth and
experience to turn to when needed. Senior center Moses
Ayegba posted solid numbers when he was pressed into
action last season, appearing in 28 games while averaging
1.3 points and 2.5 rebounds, including double digit

HEAD COACH
A 2013 National Coach of the Year selection, Dana Altman
is the 19th head coach in the history of the University of
Oregon men’s basketball program. He is 73-37 in three
seasons in Eugene and 483-280 in 24 seasons as a head
coach at the NCAA Division I level in stints at Oregon,
Creighton, Kansas State and Marshall.
In his first three years at Oregon, Altman has led the Ducks
to three consecutive 20-win seasons and three postseason
appearances, including the 2013 NCAA Sweet 16. It
marks just the third time in school history UO has produced
consecutive seasons of 20+ wins. Altman now has 15
seasons of 20+ wins to his credit.
Altman’s 2012-13 Oregon Ducks became the first Oregon
team since 2008 to qualify for the NCAA Tournament.
The Ducks finished the season 28-9 and won the Pac-12
Tournament. Altman was named the Pac-12 Coach of the
Year before going on to earn Jim Phelan National Coach
of the Year honors. Senior E.J. Singler was an all-league
first team selection, while Damyean Dotson claimed
a place on the Pac-12 All-Freshman team. Johnathan
Loyd was named Most Outstanding Player of the Pac-12
Tournament as the team spread the honors around. Senior
Arsalan Kazemi was a Pac-12 all-defensive pick before
going on to become a second round draft choice of the
Philadelphia 76ers.
During the 2011-12 season, Altman led the Ducks to a 2410 overall record and an 13-5 Pac-12 Conference mark
which was good for a share of second place in the final
league standings. The Ducks earned a bid to the National
Invitation Tournament and recorded victories over LSU
and Iowa before falling at top-seed Washington in the
tournament quarterfinals.
Under Altman’s tutelage, four UO players were recognized
as part of the 2012 Pac-12 All-Conference teams. Devoe
Joseph became the first Duck since the 2006-07 season to
be named first team all-conference. E.J. Singler was named
to the all-conference second team and NABC All-District 20
second team, while Garrett Sim earned honorable mention
all-league recognition and Tony Woods was named
honorable mention all-defensive team.
In his first season at Oregon, Altman led the Ducks to the
second-highest win total (21) of any first-year UO head
coach. Only John Warren (30 wins in 1944-45) posted
more in his first year on the sidelines. The 2011 postseason
included a pair of wins at the Pacific Life Pac-10 Conference
Tournament, highlighted by a 76-59 upset win over No.
2-seed UCLA in the quarterfinals. Oregon participated
in the 2011 College Basketball Invitational, defeating
Creighton in the best-of-three championship series.
Altman arrived at UO after spending 16 seasons
at Creighton where he became the school’s all-time
winningest coach with a record of 327-176 (.650). He led
the Blue Jays to 13 consecutive postseason appearances,
a stretch of 11 straight seasons with 20-plus wins, all while
producing 10 or more league victories in each of the last
14 seasons. Those three feats were unmatched in the 103
years of the Missouri Valley Conference.
Creighton participated in seven NCAA Men’s Basketball
Tournaments and five National Invitation Tournaments
under Altman, advancing to the second round of the NCAA
championships in both the 1998-99 and 2001-02 seasons.
He led the school to a MVC regular-season title in 2000-01
- its first in 10 years. The Bluejays posted a school-record
29 wins in 2002-03.
Student-athletes under his direction at CU earned six
All-America honors on the court and four Academic AllAmerica laurels in the classroom. Three players he coached
at Creighton - Kyle Korver, Rodney Buford and Anthony
Tolliver - have played in the NBA.
Altman was hired by Creighton on March 31, 1994, after
compiling a 68-54 record in four seasons (1990-94) at
Kansas State University. During that time, Altman led the
Wildcats to three straight postseason tourneys and was
named the Big Eight Conference Coach of the Year after
leading KSU to a 19-11 record and an appearance in the
NCAA Tournament in 1993.
Altman’s final Kansas State club turned heads nationally
with a 68-64 win at No. 1 Kansas on Jan. 17, 1994.
K-State eventually advanced to play in the NIT Final Four.
Altman’s success at KSU followed him from a brief head
coaching stint at Marshall where he was named Southern
Conference Coach of the Year in 1990.
Altman completed his undergraduate education and playing
career at Eastern New Mexico University. After earning his
associate degree in business administration from Southeast
in 1978, Altman
graduated
magna
cum laude from
Eastern New Mexico
in 1980 with his
bachelor’s degree in
the same field.

UNIVERSITY of OREGON DUCKS
Eugene, OR
SEASON PREVIEW
Call them the Elite Eight, responsible for three extended
postseason runs in three seasons at Oregon for head
coach Dana Altman.
That message isn’t always well-received, by some of the
12 players the Ducks can bring to campus on official visits
each year.
Since Altman arrived in Eugene, he’s relied on a steady
influx of transfers, some of them with only one year available
to play for the Ducks. The 2013-14 roster continues the
trend, with six transfers, three of them seniors.
Altman thinks he’s found the right mix with this year’s group,
however. The Ducks figure to be smaller and quicker than
last year’s team, perhaps not as strong on the glass in the
absence of Kazemi, Emory and Woods, but better from
behind the three-point arc, and deeper.
All the new faces can be confusing business for fans of
the program. But Altman’s track record would suggest that
those faces are worth getting to know now.
The headliner in this year’s class of transfers might be
forward Mike Moser, a Portland native who played at
UCLA and then UNLV. Guard Jason Calliste is another fifthyear transfer, and he may be joined in the backcourt by
junior guard and Houston transfer Joseph Young, who has
petitioned the NCAA to be eligible this season.
There are also three junior-college transfers on hand,
including senior forward Richard Amardi, sophomore
forward Elgin Cook and junior wing Jalil Abdul-Bassit.
The six transfers hope to follow in the footsteps of 2012 allPac-12 selection Devoe Joseph and 2013 senior Arsalan
Kazemi, each of whom was a key cog in a lengthy
postseason run in his only season at Oregon. Kazemi
graduated last year along with fellow transfers Carlos
Emory and Tony Woods, and Joseph was a face of the
team in 2011-12 along with fifth-year transfer Olu Ashaolu.
Altman’s first success with transfers to Oregon was guard
Jay-R Strowbridge. The fifth-year transfer from Nebraska
via Jacksonville State led the Ducks in three-pointers made
and attempted, for a team that won the College Basketball
Invitational in Altman’s first year.
Tyrone Nared was also on that team, and was a senior in
2011-12 along with Joseph and Ashaolu. Nared started
24 times in two years and Joseph was the Pac-12’s leading
scorer as a senior, while Ashaolu, like Strowbridge before
him, played primarily off the bench.
Those are selfless decisions by players with short windows
in which to succeed with the Ducks. But those decisions
paid off – all eight transfers the last three years went on to
play professionally at some level.
The 2011-12 team, which also included new additions
Woods and Emory, reached the quarterfinals of the National
Invitation Tournament. And then last year, Woods, Emory,
Kazemi and transfer Waverly Austin helped Oregon reach
the Sweet Sixteen of the NCAA Tournament.
Altman said his assistants – Tony Stubblefield, Kevin
McKenna and Brian Fish – deserve credit for identifying
players willing to be part of a system.
10
CAMP HUMPHREYS I SOUTH KOREA
That latter trait will be thanks to the transfers. They’ll
complement a group of returners headlined by wing
Damyean Dotson, and point guards Dominic Artis and
Jonathan Loyd.
The coach is not naïve, he said, to the notion the staff
needs to improve its track record with high school recruits.
The Ducks have had six signees from the last two classes
leave the program already.
Altman believes he’s got another group of such players on
hand this year. It might make it hard for fans to memorize
the roster the first few weeks, but come April those will
probably be household names.
