From the article by Peter Suciu at The National Interest:

“Last week, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth was joined by lawmakers and senior military officials to mark the formal relocation of US Space Command (USSPACECOM) from Peterson Space Force Base (SFB) in Colorado to Redstone Arsenal in Alabama.

“It’s common sense that this is precisely where Space Command should be; it’s common sense that we need to move rapidly and expeditiously, and we will,” Hegseth said in his remarks. “We are deadly serious in committing to cutting every piece of red tape and bureaucracy to get this headquarters established as quickly as humanly possible.”
