From the beginning we proverb

 From the beginning, we wanted to compete with Army and Navy. All of the people running our program at the start were West Point graduates.

 For example, the fact that you can put Navy personnel in an Air Force facility, exploiting information coming from Army sensors, you get a little bit more information than you would otherwise get if it was just the Navy talking to the Navy talking to the Navy, or the Army talking to the Army talking to the Army.

 Give me an army of West Point graduates and I'll win a battle. Give me a handful of Texas Aggies, and I'll win the war.
  General George S. Patton

 West Point graduates love everything that has to do with West Point. As much as it is male-dominated in terms of numbers, there is a great respect for female athletes and the females who go through here.

 I was a Navy officer writing about Navy problems and I simply stole this lovely Army nurse and popped her into a Navy uniform, where she has done very well for herself.

 The burden the Navy has carried so brilliantly in the Pacific will inevitably be shared more and more with the Army and its air forces. But the Navy has performed its historic duty; the Navy got them there.

 We wanted to honor all the people who keep us out of harm's way every day. That's why we recognized our military, the Army and Navy, the Red Cross and emergency medical technicians. They're the ones who deserve the applause.

Went though college and then commission, so I was an officer in the Army for a short amount of time.

 Army-Navy, by far, ... Many rivalries – Ohio State-Michigan, USC-UCLA, Auburn-Alabama – are regional rivalries within conferences that encompass a state, or maybe two states, whereas Army-Navy encompasses all 50 states.

 We decided to join a track program one summer at West Seneca West High School, and we've been running ever since.

 You want to get your program to the point where every day kids go out and know that they have to compete to get better because if they don't they know there's somebody behind them who has the ability if they slack off. Overall we're at a point in our program now where we have more competition than we've ever had before.

 A lot of people don't know this, but he beat me to the flag. I saw Rick start running over from center field to left. I didn't know what it was, but as soon as I saw him start, I took off and I ran out there, and of course, by that time, Rick had picked up the flag and continued running. When I got there, I see these two guys and I told them, 'Why don't one of you guys take a swing at me?' because there were 50-something thousand people in the ballpark and I only wanted them to swing at me, so I could defend myself and do a job on them.
