US Space Force: "Stop laughing, we really do have a purpose!"

Things could get interesting if they start competing with the Navy to be another taxi service for the Marines though.

I'm willing to bet that the Navy will take over the task of commanding spaceships when we start with the space imperialism

At the very least, all their best officers will get transferred to space force. There isn't really any direct earthly parellel to space warfare and logistics, but naval warfare and logistics is as close as it gets
