Capt. Kirk to Space Force: Let's Debate Rank Names
|
[Military.com] The original Capt. James T. Kirk of the starship USS Enterprise would like a word with Space Force officials about the new service branch's rank structure, and some lawmakers appear to be on his side.
"'I'm just a nobody here but I was wondering; is it true that the commanding officer onboard a 'Space Force' ship is designated a Colonel & not a Captain?," William Shatner, the actor who played Kirk on "Star Trek," wrote to the service on Twitter. "Is this up for debate? I think I'd like to debate the issue.'"
...
The House last month approved its version of the 2021 National Defense Authorization Act with an amendment by Texas House Republican and former Navy SEAL Dan Crenshaw that would force the service to call its O-1s "ensigns" and those with stars on their shoulders "admirals." That version has yet to be reconciled with the Senate's.
You can take a sailor out of the piracy, but you can't take the piracy out of the sailor, I guess.
If you listen quietly, you can hear Gen. LeMay reaching terminal rotor velocity.
