    The whole point of the National Guard and Reserves is to allow opportunities for American citizens who want to serve our country and soldiers who were in the Air Force or Army to continue to serve our country by staying in their home state. One of the biggest reasons soldiers refrain from relisting is that they constantly move around and are far from family.

      @@spyder801jd news flash, if you enlist in the Air Guard or the Air Force Reserves you are under the Air Force, not the Space Force (Space Force is its own branch of service). You get an Air Force coded job, go to Air Force BMT, and you perform Air Force missions. If I want to be a Marine I don’t enlist in the Navy or the Navy reserves, they’re two different branches of service. Hope this helps.

Alaska we even closed some bases… New York and New Jersey… Chicago and Great Lakes… the mission changes.. doesn’t mean they close for good or will never come back.. we just open a base in the pacific we are recommitioning a few other old deactivated bases this is how this base came to be in the first place

      Double negative. Does that mean they are a good choice? I might have to agree with you, then. Huntsville, AL probably has more Aerospace PhDs than all of Colorado combined. Texas has the Space community in Houston and Elon's Space Base in Brownsville. Mississippi has the folks doing the heavy lifting at Stennis and Florida is probably the most well-known with NASA's work on the Space Coast and Cape Canaveral. You're right, the Southern States might have a leg up. Of course, the mosquitos are brutal, so maybe not the best place for a Space Force consolidation!

The Guard Members live in the communities in which they serve.and are commanded by the States Governor. The activities conducted in Greeley can very easily be transferred to Buckley Space Force Base and incorporated into the 140 TFW Command. The biggest whiners are infact the liberals who never served in either the Active duty, Reserve or Guard Forces.
