A $1.8 Million Home for Space Force’s Top Enlisted Leader Is Included in the 2023 Budget Request – By Thomas Novelly (Military.com) / April 28, 2022
The Department of the Air Force’s 2023 budget proposal includes a request to build a $1.8 million home at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland to house the Space Force’s top enlisted leader.
The request for a brand-new, 3,500-square-foot home for the chief master sergeant of the Space Force is tucked away in the more than $230 million requested to fix and improve privatized base housing for families.
“A home meeting or exceeding the housing standards for the referenced grade/position is not available, and it’s not a viable option to renovate an existing home in the base inventory to house the chief,” budget documents justifying the project that were filed last week, said.
