Army adds new space battalion to Fort Carson's ranks
The Army's newest battalion came into existence on a Fort Carson parade field Monday

The Army's newest battalion came into existence on a Fort Carson parade field Monday.

The 200 reserve soldiers of the 2nd Space Battalion in Colorado Springs will back up their active-duty comrades to make sure troops in the field have the signals they need from space. It's a move by the Army that shows how the service is increasingly reliant on satellite services that are increasingly marked as targets by America's enemies.

If they Army Rangers, they could be called space rangers.
