Neither would I. It's an interesting life, and an interesting community. I see comments on this thread from folks who didn't want to do that "to" their children ... I view (and viewed) it as what Dad did "for" me.
Indeed. Staying in the military while we kids were little, was probably the single best thing my dad did for our futures. I think growing up in that environment, and attending the military schools, gave us a leg up on our civilian peers.
Matter of fact, I know it did.
