UNC Deputy Commander Welcomes Commonwealth Chiefs of Army for Strategic Dialogue
CAMP HUMPHREYS, Republic of Korea - Australian Lieutenant General (LTGEN) Scott Winter, Deputy Commander of United Nations Command (UNC), hosted the Chiefs of Army and Sergeants Major from Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom for a strategic engagement at UNC Headquarters and the Joint Security Area (JSA) on April 22, 2026.
This significant visit coincides with Commonwealth Week, encompassing commemorations for the Imjin and Kapyong battles, as well as Anzac Day ceremonies.
"The 75th anniversary is not just a time for reflections, but a mandate to look forward," said LTGEN Winter.
"This visit demonstrates to our international community that the UNC standing coalition remains a vital force multiplier.
"By bringing our Commonwealth partners together with our Korean hosts, we are identifying tangible ways our combined forces can enhance peace and stability in an increasingly complex operational environment."
The visiting Chiefs of Army received comprehensive briefings on the complexity of the current operational environment, ensuring a deep appreciation for the strategic value of the UNC.
The UNC remains committed to enforcing the 1953 Armistice Agreement, deterring aggression, and providing a unified, multinational response mechanism in steadfast support of the Republic of Korea.
