Military leaders back Biden decision to keep Space Command in Colorado::Military leaders on Thursday defended President Joe Biden’s decision to nix U.S. Space Command’s planned move from Colorado to Alabama as a necessary and nonpolitical decision to avoid operational problems.
Dickinson, however, said internal studies showed some 88% of his civilian workforce would not leave Colorado Springs for Alabama.

No shit. The amount of great housing in the Springs with relatively easy access to Peterson AFB is incredible. Plus, the milder climate and insulated economy make it a place people want to stay. Winters aren’t nearly as bad as people imagine since it’s on the plains side of the Rockies.
Still can’t get over how when they announced the uniforms for Space Force they used desert camo.
I mean, I guess there’s some precedent:
Most rocky planets are pretty desert like, they were just planning ahead. I guess that raises the question of if Space Force, or the Army, or Marines (dare I say Space Marines?) would handle land warfare on other planets
Does Tatooine have oil?
Like when the official Navy Working Unuform was blue camo. And now it has been replaced with… green camo. For all those times you need to evade visual detection by Chiefs making sure you’re actually participating in field day.
