"The Bird"
LANDOVER, Md. -- The U.S. Air Force Academy's mascot, "The Bird," greets a few of the 30,000-plus fans on hand as the Air Force Falcons take on the U.S. Naval Academy squad at FedEx Field here Oct. 4. Despite some promising early success, the Air Force Falcon's fell to the Navy Midshipmen 28-25. (U.S. Air Force photo by Master Sgt. Jim Varhegyi)
