Go Army Beat Navy 2022 (59s) VERTICAL - U.S. Army Europe and Africa

U.S. Army Europe and Africa

Oct. 30, 2022 | 0:59

For over 100 years, the Army-Navy football game has united the country through a time-honored tradition. The game did not stop in 1944, despite a Second World War. As the Allies invaded Normandy to liberate Europe, the Army had a decisive victory over the Navy 23 to 7.

This video honors those victories by showing footage from that historic day and the troops who served in Europe during WWII. Today we continue their legacy through this game and through the continued mission of U.S. Army Europe and Africa. (U.S. Army video by Sgt. James Garvin)
