The 1964 Army-Navy football game had no reason to be as memorable as it ultimately became. Navy looked poised to crush Army for the 6th consecutive year with future Hall of Fame quarterback Roger Staubach at the helm, but a stunning upset victory by Army catapulted the Cadets players onto the national stage. This book by historian Nicolaus Mills links the biographies of players on that unforgettable Army team from the time they spent on the field together to the years they spent stationed around the country and the world, serving their country as best they could, for as long as they could.
