Sept 1 -WV Despite delays in the Korean truce talks, "rotation" . of American troops In Korea continues. The! army has been bringing about 30.000 troops home direct from Korea each month. A new plan to rotate army men from all spots in the Far East, not Just Korea,; goes into effect this month. It was set up, not in the Pentagon, but by General lUdgway's Far East Command (FECOM) in Tokyo. The system allows men in close combat in. Korea to go home twice as quickly as those not in combat. Here's how it works: .. : j . ' -, Officers and men will need . a certain number of months "con structive service" to be sent back to the States. How much has not been decided. FECOM says it will bo announced month by ; month and will vary at first with differ ent units. - I "Constructive service win be credited as follows: For one month actual service in a combat unit in Korea, four months constructive service. For. each month, of other service, hv Korea, two months con structive service. i- - V I Married; men seving Without' their dependents in the Ryukyus, Philippines, Marianas and Bonin Islands : credit two months - con structive service for one. month actual service. Unmarried men in these areas get lVa months con structive service credit for one month actual service. ' Though the number of months needed to rotate all the way back home hasn't been decided, FECOM does say men may be rotated out of Korea to Japan or elsewhere in the Far East after 24 months con structive service, equal to C months close combat. . Before an individual may be rotated, FECOM says "Mainten ance of combat effectiveness and the -availability, of able qualified replacements" must be considered -The Marino corps has been ro tating since last February.
