THE ARMY/NAVY GALA AT THE PA CONVENTION CENTER FRIDAY NIGHT – WHO DOESN’T LIKE A MAN/WOMEN IN UNIFORM!!

December 18, 2013 by HughE Dillon

The Army/Navy Game was in town this past weekend, and I headed over to the Pennsylvania Convention Center to check out the gala. The gala was dinner held in the Grand Ballroom, while downstairs in the rooms the young cadets waited to perform in the color guard portion of the night. I was covering about 4 events that snowy Friday evening, so I couldn’t stay to cover the color guard, although I hear it’s pretty spectacular. Maybe next year. Hope you caught the snowy game the next day, where Navy beat Army34 to 7!!
