Army / Navy game history

Recommended Posts

A few posts in the Bonfire made me curious about the history of the Army-Navy game and who was ahead. I found this link that shows it's pretty much 50/50, but I noticed (and this is just a glance at the history without any detailed research) that it appears that Navy tends to have winning streaks during war years. The Vietnam years are a little iffy, I guess.

Why? My guess is that more people choose to go Navy during conflict. No slam on Navy, I served 10 years myself, but casualties ARE lower than Army's during war.

Anyone want to comment?
