Seeing a lot of memes regarding Trump's proposed Space Force.
Thinking about it, in the Stargate verse we're more than halfway there.
We have ships, fighter craft, ground troops, and offworld bases.
So we need to just spinoff those personnel and assets currently assigned to the SGC and Homeworld and make that the Space Force.
And I propose that the first commanding officer (most probably title Chief of Space Operations or CSO) be none other than Samantha Carter. She's led missions offworld (both peaceful and combat), dealt with alien societies, commanded an offworld base, and captained a starship.
It seems her entire career has been to leading up to commanding such a force. After all to paraphrase Jack O'Neill, she is a planetary treasure.
