Army space leaders are trying to educate soldiers about how the force heavily relies on space-enabled capabilities.
Non-space soldiers may not realize how much of their equipment relies on space-enabled capabilities and how those capabilities enhance Army combat operations, said Robert Marquez, space training division chief for the Army Space and Missile Defense Command. Soldiers not in space jobs also may not realize how adversaries are already trying to take advance of space.
To spread the word, Marquez is sending instructors to installations and combat training centers so Army space experts can ensure space capabilities are integrated into live and virtual training environments. Space education is also being integrated into professional military education and the Army’s centers of excellence.
