Blood Stripe Returns
December 19th, 2008 | EagleBank Bowl Navy | Posted by Mike Hoffman
Navy will again wear the Nike “Enforcer” jerseys this Saturday after they were unveiled two weeks ago at the Army-Nave game. The jerseys feature the traditional blood stripe from the Marine Corps elegant dress uniform pant and the symbols of the Navy and Marine Corps.
After Saturday, though, the jerseys will not be worn again. Navy players will be allowed to keep the jerseys as the team will return to their previous jerseys.
But why kill the jerseys that players and alums, who spoke to me at the Army-Navy game, seem to like? They are flashier, but not over the top like the Army uniforms with the digital camouflage pants and helmet. The blood stripe on the uniform pants is especially classy.
