Picked up these badges for this launch from another website.Non morieris bello: “You are not going to war”. So not something related to direct surveillance? (SDS?)
It is likely a SDS-3 data relay satellite. Both GEO or Molniya orbits are possible.http://space.skyrocket.de/doc_sdat/sds-3.htm
Well, it's launching from CCAFS so that suggests that L38 is going to GEO. Maybe either a communications relay or a COMINT platform?

They have launched plenty of Molniya and other high-incl orbits from the Cape, including SDS and Lacrosse.
