Since 1775, and still Army Strong today! Hooah!!

UPDATE EDIT: My banking/insurance provider, USAA, posted a great video on their newsroom blog. Check it out!

It’s that time of year again – Time to kick some swabbies in the poop deck!

Today is game day for the long standing college football rivalry between the Army and Navy.  If you’re not lucky enough to see it in person at Lincoln Financial Field, in Philadelphia, you can get it on CBS at 2:30pm EST.

It’s incidentally sponsored by my bank, USAA, the greatest ever for banking / insurance / lending / brokerage services.  If you’re current/former military, or a spouse/child of a current/former member of the military, and you don’t already use them, you should definitely check them out.

Go Army!!! Hooah!!!

Oh and for your viewing pleasure, I came across some older Army-Navy game posters from the 40′s and 60′s…

Today in 1941, Parade magazine called it “…the Army’s most intriguing new gadget”, “a tiny truck which can do practically everything” – The Jeep (built by Willys Overland).
