INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 28, 2024 ~ The Army-Navy Football Game, also known as "America's Game," has announced a new partnership with the American Legion, the nation's largest veterans service organization. This marks the first time in the game's 125-year history that a VSO will be sponsoring the event.

"As the nation's largest VSO, it is fitting for The American Legion to be at this annual celebration of service, honor, country," Kessel said.

In addition to promoting patriotism and camaraderie, this partnership also allows The American Legion to raise awareness about its Be the One campaign. The organization hopes to use the platform of the Army-Navy Game to bring attention to the issue of veteran and servicemember suicide.
"While we know the game will provide our nation's veterans and other fans entertainment, it's also true that many are suffering inside," Kessel said. "That's why it is so important for us to bring Be the One to millions of military supporters. By raising awareness of the suicide crisis in forums like this, we are effectively increasing the probability of servicemembers, veterans, their families and other military supporters to Be the One to save one life."
The partnership between The American Legion and the Army-Navy Game will kick off at this year's game on December 14th at Commanders Field in Landover, Maryland. This collaboration not only celebrates a historic rivalry in college football but also highlights the important work being done by The American Legion in supporting our nation's veterans.
