Notre Dame was one of those<br>universities. With so many young people going off to war, the school<br>was left with few students and even fewer financial resources.<br><br>At the same time, the U.S. Naval Academy was facing a different<br>problem—the Navy needed more officers than the academy was able to<br>produce. So the decision was made to establish naval training<br>facilities at other universities across the country and send young<br>people there to attend college and become naval officers. Notre Dame<br>was one of the universities chosen.<br><br>As a result, Notre Dame had an influx of students, and several new<br>facilities were built on the campus that served Notre Dame for years.<br>Many believe that the assistance from the Navy helped save Notre Dame<br>during a difficult time.<br><br>Long before the war—and even longer since—Notre Dame and Navy have<br>enjoyed a spirited football rivalry. Even during those years when<br>Notre Dame was a national football powerhouse and Navy wasn’t, the two<br>institutions kept the tradition going in honor of the mutual<br>assistance they received during a challenging time. It has remained<br>one of college football’s most beloved rivalries.1<br><br>Notre Dame and Navy have played each other every football season for<br>over 80 years, but it’s about more than just football. The lesson of<br>two football teams bound together over the decades is this: you don’t<br>drop your friends.<br><br>When hard times come, and they do for each of us, let us remember<br>those who lend a hand, those who lift and help us. Perhaps it was a<br>teacher, a coach, a neighbor, or a friend who stepped in to help at a<br>crucial time. Let us stay true to them by remaining grateful and loyal<br>to their legacy.<br><br>Let us never forget those who helped make the present possible.<br><br>1.
