The Army vs. Navy Game is a spectacle like no other. Every year, these two storied service academies get together to cap the college football regular season, and this year will be no different. The Commander-in-Chief's Trophy is on the line as the pageantry will again be a sight to behold. What also will be a sight to behold, as is usually the case, are the uniforms that will be worn by the Black Knights and Midshipmen.

As is the case for some time, when the two teams meet this year on Dec. 13 in Baltimore they will wear special uniforms for the occasion. The Army-Navy Game is an opportunity for the two service academies to pay tribute the history of their branch of the armed forces, and the uniforms have become a big part of that.

Army was founded as the Continental Army in 1775 ahead of the Revolutionary War and will pay homage to those roots, as well as those who have died in service of their country.

Navy's uniforms will also look back to their founding, with helmets honoring the USS Constitution.

"NAVY 25"

Having fun yet?? Join the Navi sea the world.

Word from the Navy's video...

For over 250 years, the United States Navy has ruled the seas as a relentless force of power and freedom.

USS Constitution was the spark that ignited a legacy of dominance that surges across every ocean today.

Six frigots forged a nation's strength upon the open sea.

And their spirit endures in every sailor who carries their creed.

Don't give up the ship.

[Music]

***

The spark of light:

The significance of the number 25 becomes apparent in the third verse of the Torah, which recounts the creation of light on the first day of Creation:

G-d said, “Yehi ohr — Let there be light!” (Bereishit 1:3)

Though, traditionally the Hebrew word “yehi” translates as “let there be”, the entire phrase can also be read as follows: yehi = ohr, that is, yehi is the ohr. And, if the word yehi — Yud-Heh-Yud is converted into a gematria = 10+5+10, which has a total of 25, then the phrase would read: 25 equals light, and hence, the twenty-fifth word in the Torah is “ohr” — light.

https://torah.org/torah-portion/perceptions-5767-naso/

Just ahead of the "Aha Moment" of "Let there be light!", the Spirit of Elohim -- aka the soul of the Mashiach -- "moved upon the face of the waters".

USS Constitution was the spark

because "iron" and "spark" go together, like what happened at Bethlehem, at Fore river(s).

So,

..."by her nickname 'Old I ronsides'" ["בכינויה "אוֹלְד אַיירוֹנְסַיידְס] (Wiki)

is 565 = אור משיח,

the Ohr Mashiach/Messianic Light (aka Ohr Rishon/First Light aka Ohr HaGanuz/Hidden Light)

"Huzzah! Her sides are made of iron!"

(Fe, atomic number 26)

It sure is a good thing that the Torah was written in Ancient Greek, because there's that special diacritic named smooth breathing (spiritus lenis) for marking the absence of the voiceless glottal fricative /h/ from the beginning of a word.

That way you can see that in the beginning [God] made for smooth sailing, every word: "ἐν ἀρχῇ ἐποίησεν". Well, before the ho (ὁ) showed up with the rough breathing.

Gotta laugh. There's no place like home.

Fair winds and following seas.

Okay and the name of her Skipper at the time she had been dubbed "Old Ironsides":

Isaac Hull

"Your name is your mission", so he didn't want to guf up.

Don't give up the ship.

Surely if anyone should own a ballcap with that message...
