It was a beautiful day here in New York yesterday.
We attended the United States Merchant Marine Academy and United Stated Coast Guard Academy football game.
My husband graduated from the Merchant Marine Academy and this game has always been a big rivalry.
As we were walking across the field this play happened right in front of me.
It was a touchdown for Coast Guard.
The Merchant Marine Academy eventually won the game.
The three words on the new uniforms is the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy Battle Standard.
The Battle Standard perpetuates the memory of the 142 cadet-midshipmen (students) who gave the ultimate sacrifice, their "last full measure," during their Sea Year training during World War II.
