"For the first time since Truman, we will create a brand new American military service," Trump said. "You will witness the birth of the Space Force. That's a big moment and we're all here for it."

The creation of the Space Force marked the achievement of one of the president's top national priorities.

"Space is the world's newest warfighting domain," Trump added. "American superiority in space is absolutely vital."

The new branch will reside inside the Air Force.

The president thanked Vice President Mike Pence for his work in helping to establish the Space Force. He also announced the appointment of Air Force Gen. John "Jay" Raymond as Chief of Space Operations. "He will now join the Joint Chiefs," Trump said.
