This seems really redundant to the Air Force Space Command: Trump space force: US to set up sixth military branch https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-44527672 I thought part of the point is that we aren't supposed to militarize space, right? Trump has also declared the new branch will be "separate but equal" (phrasing!) from the other five branches. So Space Marines are going to be as important as the Coast Guard or something? This just seems like a bad idea. Standing by for snappy branch seal and rank insignia! EDIT: Oh FFS...

It’s going to be a bunch of fat nerds sitting in a bunker somewhere in Virginia watching Xi Jinping take a poo poo via spy satellite.

This just seems like a bad idea. Space Marines will be a separate 7th branch but under the Department of the Space Force. Of course, they'll need their own space aviation wing, and their own mini space carriers to launch their space marine space ships from.

This is just going to be engineers in office buildings reading satellite telemetry for at least the next 50 years.

If we had a space navy we could send seamen to Uranus.. Just think about that for a moment. Then remember somehow they would remove the fun and comedy from it. Do you want to live in a world where sending seamen to Uranus isn't funny? I don't. Say no to space Navy

This branch is gonna end up as the biggest group of nerds ever. Imagine Navy nukes, intel weenies and air force goobers all mashed into one. They could save money on the budget by paying them in M:TG cards and anime waifu pilows.

I want in on this, but IN SPACE where is the rear w/ the gear?? We need MPs for when the mobile infantry gets into brawls with navy pilots etc. so maybe I can sign up to be some kind of Space Cop. Yeah, that'll work... unless the whole concept kinda falls flat when finally tested, that would be disappointing.

But, how will formations work? Will they be all 3D? These are important questions that need to be answered, after all, the CSM won't have grass to keep people off of in Spaaaaaace.
