The Republic of Korea Army airfield R 404, would this have been K-52 Yanggu back in 1952, if so then the 630th Engineers LE Co built this airstrip and was 6000 feet long by 150 feet wide, with a 5000 foot taxiway, finished off with crushed rock, compacted with a 50 ton rubber tire roller, with a gross loading of 80,000 lbs, I and several other engineer veterans are eager to find out just what happen to the airstrip we built.
