[QUOTE="Skeptic, post: 383609, member: 2175"] Well, yes. Born as an unwanted child by the Army and Navy, for the same and different reasons. The Army wanted full control of air support for infantry -- and that makes all the sense in the world -- and of course, that budget money being siphoned off. The Navy wanted the cash for carriers, so to speak, saying give us enough and we can protect the world. But in 1947 both lost and the AF was born, and -- was it 1960? -- the AF Academy was established. And as Supersize notes, they have squatter's rights on the Chief's trophy. But Army and Navy have been playing since God made dirt, so AF just has to tag along. (Scheduling that Army-Navy game in mid-December was a stroke of genius by somebody. Absolutely dominates the Saturday, particularly now that Army is relevant again.) [/QUOTE]
