Ancient picture.
The Kitty Hawk and the Connie have been out of service for about a decade.
They were still sailing the last time Army won.

Just in one game tooI just saw a graphic after a Navy penalty that it was their 31st penalty called this season, lowest in NCAA.
Felt like we had more than 31 flags thrown at us on false start calls alone.
Army's winning drive started with a 30-yard pass play. It was as big as any play in the game. Flipped the momentum.Congrats to Army for finally breaking the streak. Despite zero passing game and a boatload of turnovers they found away. Great to hear Vern call the game to.
Not to sound like a Grandmother, but I was nervous at the end of that game that a cadet was going to get trampled to death climbing over that railing to get onto the field. It was just mayhem.
It's the truly the best rivalry in sports. Because they simultaneously hate and respect each other so much.
Thanks meema. I, for one, thought it was great. I wish there was more unbridled enthusiasm at other games, but with the fear of exactly what you mentioned, all too often, field storming has been clamped down.
I was really torn about who to root for in this game...I work for the Navy, but feel more of kinship with the Army, since the AF came from the Army...before I started working for the Navy, I rooted for the Army...May be I will switch each year who I root for...
