U.S. Space Command Commanding General Gen. Stephen Whiting has picked Maj. Gen. Terry L. Grisham to lead the transition of the combatant command’s headquarters to Redstone Arsenal. Grisham is an Alabama native with nearly 40 years of military and civilian service, will serve as the command’s transition team director. “I’m thrilled to be joining the USSPACECOM team as the on-ground lead to continue establishing our permanent headquarters on Redstone Arsenal,” Grisham said. In September 2025, the President announced USSPACECOM’s relocation to Redstone Arsenal, a move that underscores the command’s critical role in safeguarding America’s interests in space. The command has been working since that time to lay the groundwork for a purpose-built headquarters on Redstone Arsenal.
