Army to represent 101st Airborne Division with Army-Navy uniforms

Army will honor the Screaming Eagles of the 101st Airborne Division with the design of its uniforms for the Army-Navy game.

Army released its Nike game uniforms Monday for the Commander in Chief’s trophy clash on Dec. 6 at Northwest Stadium in Landover, Md.

The game coincide almost 80 years to the date in U.S. Army history when Screaming Eagles paratroopers defended Bastogne, Luxembourg from Nazi forces in what would be named the Battle of the Bulge. The 101st Airborne Division’s motto “Rendezvous with Destiny” held true through three weeks of intense combat.

The black-colored uniform’s features include “ARMY !” underscored on the jersey’s back, “Bastogne” on the name patch on the jersey’s front, an Airborne patch on the left shoulder, a 1944 American flag on the right shoulder, an Invasion Star on the right upper chest, a card suits helmet sticker.
