Anchors Away


How wonderful it is that on the weekend before Veterans Day, Navy's football team should deal such a dramatic upset to a nationally ranked opponent, the legendary Notre Dame? Not only did Navy win against the 19th ranked team, they took their show on the road achieving victory in South Bend, Indiana.


The Mighty Midshipmen sealed the deal when Craig schaefer sacked highly touted Fighting Irish Quarterback, Jimm Clausen in the end zone securing Navy's second consecutive win at Notre Dame stadium. Navy dominated the first half leading 14-0 at half time. But Notre Dame would fight back to tie only to be brought down by a safety and who knows more about making safety a winning proposition than our armed forces?


It's a proud day on the shores of the Chesapeake and in the hearts of all Americans who appreciate the gallantry of our future leaders in the United States Navy.
