That’s interesting. But even if most of them were soldiers, isn’t an astronaut still a “civilian” job? Either way this shirt is super cursed and the fact they didn’t even make the CCCP person a Star Wars character is just even more cringe.
Later they started to send scientists and engineers but for good few years it wasn't exactly safest job out there, and it heavily involved things airforce pilots learned, so they send soldiers. Same for USA. If you look at ISS crews, basically safest possible astronaut posting in history of space flight, still most of them were soldiers including nearly half of current crew.
I think all or almost all cosmonauts were actually a soldiers of airforce (it's still supercringe and on the nose for ukronazis).

I was tired as hell, and read that as "ISIS crews." Funny thing is, the American soldiers part still made sense.
