20 Dec Space Force Birthday!
Happy Birthday to the United States Space Force!
The newest branch of the military is celebrating its 5th birthday. On December 20th, 2019, the Space Force was established to conduct global space operations that enhance the way our joint forces serve and protect. Consisting of over 8,000 personnel and 77 spacecraft, this new branch is also the smallest.
The military’s competitive advantage is maintained by providing specialized training and expanding its capabilities by purchasing and developing the next-generation space-based technology. Military space technology, such as spaceplanes, satellites, and the rockets that carry them into orbit, are also procured and operated by Space Force personnel. Their values of character, connection, commitment and courage are seen in all operations they undergo.
We appreciate the Guardians who serve in the Space Force for their persistence in maintaining American Space Superiority and the courage to discover the unknown.
Happy Birthday Space Force and Semper Supra!
