Monday's editions of Stripes feature a new twist on traditional year-in-review stories published by Stripes around this time of year.

This December, we take a look at the Pacific's top 10 military and high school sports stories of the year, as determined by Stars and Stripes' sports staff.

Some may disagree with the placement and/or the selections made, and maybe you might feel we left out one or two stories, but let's face it -- that's part of the fun of it.

Feel free to weigh in with your thoughts in our latest polls And Happy New Year to all!
