On Saturday, Army and Navy will face off on the football field for the 118th time.

Unfortunately it is (it's a Division, though, much bigger than a unit) but, having served with 10th Mountain I'm sure they're taking care of him their own way.

At USMA in the old days we were taught that unit was a generic term. My apologies are offered for my ignorance.

An Old West “necktie party” would be more appropriate.

That’s right. Every night and progressively worse.

It’s a travesty that an America hating bastard like him is allowed to get away with what he does.
