A Special Tribute
ΊΪΑΟΙη senior kinesiology major Logan Locke of Starkville, a member of ΊΪΑΟΙηβs Army ROTC program, models the special Adidas βStatesmanβ uniform that the ΊΪΑΟΙη football team will wear for its Nov. 17 game against the University of Arkansas. The uniforms pay tribute to ΊΪΑΟΙη alumnus, World War II Veteran and former U.S. Rep. G.V. βSonnyβ Montgomery. Unveiled during a press conference Monday [Oct. 29] at the Montgomery Center for Americaβs Veterans at Nusz Hall, the uniforms are inspired by the Mississippi Air National Guard C-17 Globemaster III plane named βThe Spirit of G.V. βSonnyβ Montgomery.β Montgomery served in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1967-1997 and was author of the Montgomery G.I. Bill.
