The 124th meeting of Army-Navy takes place on Dec. 9 at Gillette Stadium, and it will feature some of the sweetest uniforms we've seen at the venue in years.
In the last few years, both Army and Navy have rolled out specialty uniforms for their rivalry matchup. It started in 2012, and has evolved into a battle between Nike (Army) and Under Armor (Navy) to see who can produce the better received kits.
In 2023, we've got yet another pair of classics.
Navy, who has gone all in on the navy blue concepts in recent seasons, will wear a "Silent Service" uniform that honors the service of the U.S. Submarine Force. The helmets will be hand painted, which has become customary for the Midshipmen over the years, and each jersey will have a USS MASSACHUSETTS (SSN 798) patch to honor the location of the game.

The Black Knights will have the chance to win the Commander-in-Chief's Trophy outright after previously upsetting the Air Force Falcons on the road. The Midshipmen, with a win, would clinch a share of the trophy which would allow Air Force to keep possession for another season.
