According to a release by West Point, the uniform design, which is Army's classic black and gold, pays tribute to 1944, which included the first of Army's three consecutive national championships and the World War II victory at the Battle of the Bulge.

The uniforms include a historical map imprinted inside the numbers, on the helmet stripe, on the gloves, the sleeves and on the inside of the shoes. The helmet also features a small black spade on the side to honor the 101st Airborne Division, which fought in the Battle of the Bulge

Sucks to be in any other Army division as cannon fodder.

You never get recognized for shite.

I always enjoy watching the Army-Navy game. One of the big reasons is to see the bad arse unis that both teams sport!
