Abstract
The position of the US Army in Northeast Asia has been strengthened in the past fifteen years due to the force modernization of Taiwanese and South Korea armies. Today, our Asian allies are struggling to balance their identity as vibrant democracies and military requirements. The US Army can play a vital role in improving and accelerating the professionalization of South Korean and Taiwanese land forces and assisting with their creation of more capable reserve system. In addition, because of East Asian demographic and social challenges, the US Army must increase efforts to assist in the transition to a volunteer force in South Korea and Taiwan.
