The proud name goes all the way back to 1983, when we were trying to sell America that pig in a poke treaty violation called SDI. That's some proud heritage and culture right there.

There is zero need for it to be another branch of the military, named so dorkily you cringe thinking of the wedgies and milkshakes they'll get from the other branches. You already know they're not invited to the football games.

Sad, really, that when we get a Space Force it's a militaristic, jingoistic Trump boondoggle.

I've got a 21 year old cat I'd back against the Marines any day.

Well, shucks.

They didn't even give my suggestion of "space cadets" a second look.

And their main base of operations will be named Babylon 9.

I will join only if my phaser has no stun setting. I'm not even sure that's a thing, but it sounds as realistic as "Space Force".
