- On December 1, 2001, two ordinary football teams met on a field in Philadelphia's Veteran's Stadium to play sixty minutes of football. But this was no ordinary game. This was the Army-Navy game. And this was no ordinary Army-Navy game. This was the Army-Navy game that would occur just weeks after the attacks of September 11. The players on the field that day knew they would soon graduate and head to war. This film looks back at that historic game and profiles the journeys of three of its players who dedicated themselves to this country - first as Cadets and Midshipmen, then officers leading the nation in war and finally answering the question: Where are they ten years later? These are compelling journeys - sometimes with tragic endings, other times with auspicious new beginnings. But always with an incomparable nobility and honor.
