Funny that all them science fiction books I read as a wee lad had the Navy driving them fancy rockets through space, but it's the AIR FORCE that has the Space Command!

We won't have to worry about space once we become "Greater Mexico".

hope it does not come to that but last few days in the Senate have been very discouraging.

They got 747s that do have Buck Rogers DARPA weapons on them now and have several successful tests.

Sounds like a hint that some black orbital systems
are about to become visible.

And yes, I saw the BlackStar traffic of earlier this month.

I've seen a few patches from AF Space Command units that looked like they were designed by trekkies.

Yes, but that is only the MAJCOM patch. I think that they might actually get worse as you get to wing, group, and squadron level.

Yea, I can't get over that too. Take Stargate SG-1, now they have flyboys commanding ships. Something just ain't right about calling the commanding officer of a ship, Colonel. Not proper, not right. Something has to be done about that.

True...although, as the vessels become larger, they will become more like naval vessels and less like aircraft!

Did you know that Russia's and China's space force also have the triangle in it. Also, China's and Russia's space agencies have the triangle, like NASA.
