They turned Staff Sergeant into just Sergeant.

"They turned Staff Sergeant into just Sergeant."

Which just turns that rank into what it should be, compared to the other services, i.e.: E-5 = Sergeant.

Okay, so can we make the Naval Officers ranks “what they should be “?

Hexagons? Deltas? I am on board, as long as they apologize to Gary McKinnon, and Bob Lazar.

I like the Star Trek-ish nature of the insignias.

Rodenberry copied it FROM the US Military, not the other way around.

“The US Space Force seal honors the Department of the Air Force’s proud history and long-standing record of providing the best space capabilities in the world,” USAF spokesman Maj. Will Russell said. “The delta symbol, the central design element in the seal, was first used as early as 1942 by the US Army Air Forces; and was used in early Air Force space organization emblems dating back to 1961. Since then, the delta symbol has been a prominent feature in military space community emblems.”

They look as though they’re sponsored by Pontiac.
