I've gotta kinda wrap my neurons around that one for aminites, you know? I mean, are we talking space cadets? Captain Proton? Elaborate, OK? Space militia...I honestly thought I'd heard it all, till now, you know?

If John Glenn can do it at 77, so can I, where is the enlistment form? Where is the Radio Room?

you have to ask?? I'd join in a heartbeat and resign my commission in order to try out for the fabled space shuttle door gunner position. Badge not necessary.

I worked on the Space Shuttle program for 33 years. If I had a shot of being in space, absolutely.

Probably not. Former astronauts have made a lot of public admissions about how weightlessness has a profound effect on people with easily disturbed stomachs. Well, my stomach is the king of all stomachs when it comes to puking. I think I’ll pass on this space job. I’m sure to be the one with his head buried in his helmet.

As I do not live in space the answer is no. Militia is made up of civilians who occasionally drill. They are local institutions for local defense. If i lived in space I would consider it.
