Here is the rest of the story - Go Army! A little inner service rivalry fun this morning! Enjoy!

The football rivalry between the Army’s Black Knights and Navy’s Midshipmen teams has come a long way from brutal brawls on the field to where it is now, with the two teams trolling each other with pre-game movie spoofs.

The most recent video, published on West Point’s YouTube page on Dec. 1, is deliberately overdramatized and reminiscent of the blockbuster film “Zero Dark Thirty.” Written and produced by Cadet Austin Lachance, the video, “On Brave Old Army Team,” takes its name from the academy’s official fight song.

COL Mikel J. Burroughs I had not yet seen the video Army Sends In ‘The War Tubas’ To Crush Navy Spirit In New Video. I had never heard of attack Tubas but I know some people are offended by the sound and sight of tubas :-)
That reminds me of the post that was sent out a couple weeks ago about the Japanese War Tubas that were primitive radar or more likely sonar defenses systems in WWI.

When the horns of war sound, the wrath of USMA shall demolish the walls of Annapolis.

COL Mikel J. Burroughs, if music is the answer, I think it more appropriate the we stick with the famous lyrics of Burt Bacharach, who wrote, "Wishing and hoping and thinking and praying
Planning and dreaming...)!
Navy has won the last thirteen outings in a row and the Sagarin Ratings have Army ranked below MANY FCS football programs, and give Navy a 29.55 point advantage. Thus, I think the Bacharach/Wolinski song most apropos!
All that being said, I still offer up, GO ARMY, BEAT Navy! MSG Private RallyPoint Member LTC Stephen F. MAJ Tex Hall CPT Private RallyPoint Member MAJ Alvin B. MSG Tom Earley

COL Mikel J. Burroughs - Mikel; GREAT video.

The only way that Navy can top it is to show how they dig in an Aircraft Carrier.

Being armor at heart, I have a very different view of the term "hull down" than Navy does. I think that it's a "GOOD thing".
