FORT HOOD, Texas -- Earlier this year, in support of the State Department, members of the U.S. military and numerous government agencies came together to support the evacuation of Afghan citizens seeking relocation as part of the biggest airlift operation in U.S history.
With the 1st Cavalry patch proudly displayed on their uniforms, the men on the West Point Army Football team stood at the entrance of the stadium ready to face their opponents. Like the Gladiators of the Roman Empire and the many men and women who have worn the patch before them in battle, the players were eager to take on the Air Force football team.
