Space News: Space Force proposes headquarters staff led by generals and civilians

Maj. Gen. Chance Saltzman wil serve as acting staff director of the Office of the Chief of Space Operations.

WASHINGTON — The U.S. Space Force Pentagon headquarters will have a leaner staff structure than traditional military service headquarters and some senior staff posts will be assigned to civilians, according to a draft proposal.

The Space Force headquarters — known as the Office of the Chief of Space Operations, or OCSO — will be led by a four-star general and a four-star vice chief. Underneath them will be four deputy chiefs of staff who could be general officers or senior government civilians, says the proposal which was approved last month by Chief of Space Operations Gen. John Raymond, sources told SpaceNews.

Many details of the staff organization are still being hammered out, these sources said, and the plan is being reviewed by the Department of the Air Force and congressional committees.
