TOKYO — Talks are under way about possibly relocating part of the Army’s I Corps headquarters from Fort Lewis, Wash., to Camp Zama, Japan, U.S. officials confirmed Tuesday.
“Talks are in progress on changes that could affect the Pacific region,” said U.S. Army Japan spokesman Maj. Randy Cephus. “There are talks; however, it is in the planning phases.”
The development follows reports early this year that the Army plans to restructure its major commands in the region, moving general officers and possibly dismantling the 8th Army and the U.N. command in South Korea and USARJ in Japan.
