I told my oldest son (USMA 17) that i would just cheer for Army while he went there, and then I would go back to cheering for Navy as I had done most of my life- see Roger Staubach and then my own enlistment in the Marine Corps.

Funny thing happened along the way, though... I fell in love with West Point and how much it means to my son.  Then his younger brother enlisted in the Navy and we thought, "Oh boy, now the shit-talkin in on like Donkey Kong."  At first, before last year's game, their mom and I were trying to be all diplomatic and walking on eggshells with regard to both of them, not picking sides.  Youngest one finally chimes in, "You know it's only a BIG deal for the college boys.  We're just happy if we get some extra time off if Navy wins..."

I can't pull for Navy... I just laugh at how many dynamic players are Marine Op's...

Go Army!  Beat Navy!!!

Before I transitioned from helicopters to fighter-attack, I served two deployments with the Marine Corps (26th MEU both times). Technically we were a Navy unit, but we always ate, worked, and partied with the Marines. I will always miss working with MARSOC/Recon, BLT, and all the Marine pilots. What a bunch of awesome and hard charging professionals. They never turned down an opportunity to go hard and get shit-faced in port, either.
