MILPERCEN-K Youngsan South Korea

MILPERCEN-K (Military Personnel Center-Korea) at Yongsan, South Korea, served as a critical administrative unit supporting United States Forces Korea (USFK) throughout the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Established to manage personnel actions, assignments, and records, MILPERCEN-K played a key role in streamlining human resources operations for soldiers stationed on the Korean Peninsula. Located within the Yongsan Garrison in Seoul, the center was instrumental in ensuring the readiness and welfare of US military personnel during periods of heightened tension on the peninsula. With the relocation of USFK headquarters to Camp Humphreys in the late 2010s, MILPERCEN-K’s functions were either deactivated or integrated into new administrative frameworks supporting the evolving US military presence in South Korea.
