At the 2:54 mark there is a cadet moving through the stands in front of other cadets with a large SOW flag.  Is that customary for Army to do that in respect for the opposing team?

UPDATE:  I asked a guy in the office about it.  He went to the Naval Academy.  He said that everything Army does is weird and not to try to put reason to it.  Who'd have thunk!

Could be a North Texas fan going to West Point.    No different than seeing people wearing other schools' gear to Apogee.

There are maybe a dozen West Point cadets in their band that went to UNT Music School.

Actually, there are ten in that picture but I was rounding up figuring maybe not all of them made it into the picture.  

Good point.  I was just going off the commentary UNT provided with the picture.

I think it's just a version of "Capture the Flag."  It is Army after all.

After being at the other games up at West Point there wasn't anything like this with a cadet & our flag.

Something else, after the games walking through the cemetery with other fans was like a history lesson. Beautiful school and time of year there...
