Space Force unveils logo, 'Semper Supra' motto - SpaceNews:
The U.S. Space Force revealed its new logo and motto as the service seeks to build branding and cultural identity.
The black-and-silver service logo unveiled July 22 has the delta wing as its central element that is also found in the Space Force seal and flag. There is a "Space Force" horizontally shaped logo and a USSF vertical logo.
The Space Force motto "Semper Supra" means "always above." It represents the service's role in establishing, maintaining and preserving U.S. freedom of operations in the ultimate high ground, a Space Force spokesman said.
The logo was designed by the Department of the Air Force's advertising agency GSD&M.

W40K lore has much better space marine quotes
Well replace tanks with comsats and spysats for our new space force, but whatever.
(TDS victims love the above)
Kinda long but they'll probably make them memorize something like the two above at space force basic training. Plus or minus W40K copyright issues.
Not really a space force quote but the above is popular among the 25 series MOS "IT guys carrying M4s"

Nothing a good EMP can't take care.
Ummm... remind me, what good were those com/spy sats when it came to fighting the low tech talibans? Because it seems that negotiation [cfr.org] was a lot cheaper that about those almost 20 years of war in Afghanistan.
But, meh, the MiC needs to eat well, the American plebes need to provide for them.

Those comsats and navsats meant we did a lot better than the Soviets. They lost, we just kinda got tired of being riot cops forever.
It seems a hard learned lesson of both Vietnam (US) and Afghanistan (USSR and US) is that stone age cultures that have resisted all forms of progress for centuries are not really vulnerable to invasion by modern cultures. If they've avoided inventing the wheel for centuries despite other countries progress, merely showing up and invading for a couple years isn't going to change any ideology or whatever. I think China is trying to learn that in Africa now.

Now that sounds like some Harry Potter spell.
