Schofield
Barracks is nestled at the foot of the Waianae mountain range
on the island of Oahu in Hawaii. The installation is located a
few miles from the towns of Wahiawa and Mililani. Fort Shafter
is situated among stately plantation-style homes and royal
palm trees in south Oahu in the town of Kalihi. Hawaii's cost
of living is among the highest in the nation. The major source
of that high cost of living can be attributed to the cost of
housing. The base operator's phone number is 808-449-7710.
History
The 25th Infantry Division traces its lineage to the Hawaiian
Division, which has defended Hawaii since 1921. On December 7,
1941, the 25th Infantry Division received its debut of fire
when Japanese forces attacked military facilities on the
island of Oahu. The division without delay deployed to
southern and eastern coasts of the island, ready to defend
against a possible Japanese invasion. The division was made
famous after relieving the Marines at Guadalcanal in 1942. Due
to their superior performance during this operation, the 25th
Infantry Division (25th ID) earned its nickname "Tropic
Lightning."
Mission
The 25th Infantry Division prepares for deployment to a
theater of operations to perform combat operations as part of
a corps counterattack. On order, it conducts theater-wide
deployment within 54 hours of notification to perform combat
operations in support of USCINCPAC theater strategy.
