Abstract:

This study attempts to analyze the effects of Korean Unification on the role of U.S. ground forces, projecting to the year 2025. In proposing a strategy of gradual troop reduction over a period of years, the proposition is made that the United States can and should play an active role in building confidence within the leadership of the Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea DPRK as it moves toward full integration with the Republic of Korea ROK.
