Hey girls I know I had posted a previous post about Korea but I was still wondering if there was any chance that any of you had been stationed their or new anyone who is stationed there or has been there and if you or they liked it. That is supposed to be our next post and I wanted to really now how the housing was and the food prices and how there weather is. If anyone can help me I would really appreciate it! Thanks!

Thats alright girly I thought that I would be able to go with my husband but he ended up getting station in Camp Castle so I wasn't able to go with him so now I am surving my six month deploment until he comes home for mid tour. Woohoo only another five months now to go!

Sorry you can't move over. Can you come for a visit? i have a few friends that are up at Casey(next door to Castle) that are living up there with their DH>

I can visit him but he doesn't rank high enough for me to move on any base. We would have to get a sponser and it is really hard to get one when you aren't high ranking.

I have friends that are up there with out command sponsership. There is no housing on post up there at all, the command sponsered families either live off post like the non-command sponsered or they live on post down at Yongsan.
It is hard to get command sponership with almost any rank, unless you are certain jobs here.
