Camp Stanley is a U.S. Army camp located just outside the city of Uijeongbu, South Korea. Currently, it is the home of the 304th Signal Battalion, the 61st Maint Co, 498th CSB, 501st CSG; 46th Trans, 498th, 501st CSG; Warrior Replacement Company; and assorted supporting units. Prior to the draw-down of American forces in South Korea due the Global War on Terror, Camp Stanley was the home of the 6th Battalion 37th Field Artillery (MLRS)+, which consisted of (1) headquarters battery, (3) fire batteries within the 37th Field Artillery regiment, and (1) battery of the 38th FA Regiment (A-38). That this was an augmented battalion of Multiple Launch Rocket System artillery systems means it has 9 more M270s than a traditional MLRS battalion.
The government of Kyongg plans to renovate Camp Stanley into a fitness center after 2008.
