“Earning my space badge is very important for me because upon successful completion of space cadre you earn the Additional Skill Identifier (ASI) of 3Y which qualifies you to be assigned to a designated 3Y space billet. There are no more than 500 of these billets throughout the Army currently and the opportunity to be assigned to one is something I look forward to for career progression and knowledge. Also the badge looks pretty cool.” - CPL Lee
