If you're referring to the large mass of gray on one side and the large mass of navy blue on the other, those are the cadets and middies. There might be active-duty types elsewhere.
December 8th, 2012 at 6:18 PM ^
send Cadets/Midshipmen to the game. The big blocks of uniforms you're seeing are current academy students (they wear different uniforms than standard Army or Navy/Marine Corps). Random people in the stands in uniform would presumably be regular active duty troops.

Thanks. I knew they're not wearing normal military uniforms, but I was wondering if some of them were simply graduates wearing their old uniforms for the occasion, or if they were all students.

No active-duty officer would be caught dead in his cadet/middie stuff. Against regs and highly unprofessional.
edit: a Navy officer could get away with it because the Navy uniforms are the same, just with different insignia. Can't say for sure but I think the gray Army coats are cadet-only.

Wow Army should have been throwing all game
December 8th, 2012 at 6:18 PM ^
Come on Army you can do this!!
December 8th, 2012 at 6:18 PM ^
Great game!
December 8th, 2012 at 6:19 PM ^
/facepalm....
December 8th, 2012 at 6:19 PM ^
OMG Army...
December 8th, 2012 at 6:20 PM ^
This is excrutiating for Army fans. Soooo close to breaking the last few plays...
December 8th, 2012 at 6:22 PM ^
jeez feel bad for the army team.
Glad for the hometown Middies, but what a terrible way to lose.
That being said, 12 years in a row!
December 8th, 2012 at 6:20 PM ^
Oh man. I mean, go Navy, but that just sucks.
December 8th, 2012 at 6:21 PM ^
And what's worse is we have to listen to Danielson pontificate. That guy could mess up a train wreck.
December 8th, 2012 at 6:23 PM ^
Bahahahahaha
December 8th, 2012 at 6:24 PM ^
December 8th, 2012 at 6:23 PM ^
What a shame. This game was headed for an incredible finish.
December 8th, 2012 at 6:23 PM ^
That's just a terrible way to end the game. Terrible, terrible terrible.

Gotta feel for Steelman and it's going to be tough to beat Navy in the next few years with that young QB they have.
December 8th, 2012 at 6:25 PM ^
Army beat itself tonight. They had opportunities but just couldn't capitalize. Its unfortunate, but that's football.
December 8th, 2012 at 6:28 PM ^
I don't have any ties either but I feel horrible for Army's QB.
December 8th, 2012 at 6:29 PM ^
December 8th, 2012 at 6:29 PM ^
Boy, I hope CBS doesn't go and try and find Steelman for an interview. It seems like the sort of dick thing a network would do.
December 8th, 2012 at 6:30 PM ^
Geeze they could have left the camera off the kid for a second at least.
December 8th, 2012 at 6:31 PM ^
wow the speaker at the linc is awful

Dang... I wanted Army to break the streak. Truely a crappy way to lose the game. Really felt like Army had the momentum and were gonna score that last drive until they fumbled. Can't fumble the ball that much...
December 8th, 2012 at 6:43 PM ^
Heartache for Army ( I was rooting for them), but one can't deny that those who tuned in witnessed a classic CFB battle.
Next up, Bowl season!
December 8th, 2012 at 7:32 PM ^
11 in a row! Go Mids!
