Last week the Navy unveiled their uniforms for the upcoming Army vs Navy game, and on Monday the Army debuted their uniforms.
Army West Point Athletics tweeted out a photo of the uniforms, which, according to SB Nation, commemorate the 10th Mountain Division, formed back in 1943.
The Army’s official release on the division says:
“These soldiers trained at 9,200 feet to learn to fight, and survive, in the most brutal mountain conditions. Bill Bowerman, who would eventually go on to co-found Nike, organized the supplies and maintained the mules for the 10th Mountain Division as a Major in the Army, serving at the time as the commander of the 86th Regiment’s First Battalion.”
See the photos of the uniforms below.
