Camp Hialeah Army Post
Camp Hialeah Main Gate Entrance
Camp Hialeah is located in the city of Pusan on the southern coast in the Land of the Morning Calm.  Pusan city is the second largest city in the Republic of Korea and the only major city that did not fall to the the Chinese Communists during the Korean conflict.
Upon entering the main gate entrance, a sign directs you to the various support facilities on post.
Camp Hialeah is a rather small post, measuring 2 miles around the perimeter.  Everything is accessable by walking which is a good thing as most dorm residents aren't authorized to ship a vehicle due to their rank.  A bicycle is a good alternate form of transportation.
We have all the comforts of home over here some of which include a base theatre, a commissary for grocery shopping, a pub that features slot machines and live bands on some weekends, a bank, community center and other ammenities that fulfill the basic needs of a small community away from home.  In the pages that follow, I will show you what is available and a brief description as necessary.

Accompanied members bringing over family live in single unit base housing and their tour of duty is 24 months.  They also have the option of residing off base, as do single members over the rank of TSgt, depending on the occupancy rate of the dormitory.

There are several of these old style oval huts that house offices for several organizations.  They are slowly being torn down and replaced.
