With the announcement of the Space Corps, how do you think that will affect the Air Force and their day-to-day operations?

The details are slowly coming out, but it looks like this will be a Space Corps, under the auspices of the Dept of the Air Force - much like the Marine Corps is under the auspices of the Dept of the Navy.
Do you think that this will allow the 'Regular' Air Force to return focus back onto Air Supremacy and making sure the birds are maintained and flying?

We are missing the big question here, and that is: what will the space camouflage pattern for the uniforms look like?

I haven't seen a mission statement on the Space Corps, but I'm supposing it's waging war and defense using satellites and such. I'm imagining the gang from the Big Bang Theory leading the way, space nerds, guys who are smart and PT and such wouldn't matter at all. I'm not sure if this is the road to the Star Wars program Regan broke out many years ago that scared the Russians to death. The AF already has air superiority and will continue to do so if the F35 is the real deal and not an engineering failure, they're betting a lot on that. The F15s are proven performers and the A10s are the best in the business in what they do, you undermine both stealth and firepower trying to make one platform do all, being a simple jarhead sometimes you need multiple platforms that only do one thing well. If I'm stuck on the ground I want to hear the A10 come on station not a fast mover.
