“This will truly be a special day for all of us as we salute the men and women around the world who protect and defend our country,” said Charlotte Jones, the Cowboys’ executive vice president and chairman of the National Medal of Honor Museum Foundation.
“The red stripe on the helmet provides a beautiful ribbon to wrap around this salute to those who currently serve our country’s military – and the patriotic love and appreciation that we all share for those who came before them.”
Bill Belichick doesn’t usually participate in wearing the camo gear
Belichick has a strong military background as his father, Steve, has a strong legacy with the Navy after serving.
However, Belichick annually doesn’t participate in the practice of wearing camo gear for Salute to Service.
In 2019, the Patriots head coach explained his decision.
“I don’t know. I mean, I usually wear the same thing for every game – I mean, not the same thing, but depending on the weather and so forth, I just wear the same thing for every game. So, I don’t change what I wear weekly based on whatever the theme of the week is,” he said.
“But, Salute to Service is – look, the military and the job that our servicemen and women do and the sacrifices that they make are very important to me and my family, always has been, always will be, and I always want to recognize those and I do it. So, I don’t have any objection to what anybody else does, but I just choose to – honestly, I don’t think what sweatshirt I wear is that important. What’s important to me is what your actions are, what you do, so I try to make those count.”
