OSAN AIR BASE, Republic of Korea -- With PCS’s starting to flow in and out of Osan, there a few important things our inbound personnel need to be aware of so they can be prepared.
All inbounds will quarantine for 14-days on base. Inbound members need to initiate contact with their receiving unit as soon as possible so Osan can start planning accordingly. A mandatory packing list as well as additionally preparation information, including quarantine sustainment, will be provided by the unit to the inbound member.
Inbound members will arrive via into Incheon or directly into Osan on the Patriot Express. DO NOT download the ROK COVID tracking app. LRS will pick inbound members up and transport them to Medical testing where they will receive their first COVID test and then transported to their designated quarantine facilities. Medical will provide another test on Day 13. Following a negative result, the member will be released to their gaining unit to complete in-processing.
If any test comes back positive, additional actions will be initiated, but since the members will already be in quarantine, the risk to Osan has already been reduced significantly.
We know there are a lot of questions. Inbound members should address these with their gaining unit. As we learn through this process, we will provide more information so everyone arriving into Osan is “Ready to Fight Tonight!”
