My son grew up an Army brat. By the time he was a teenager I was confident he could be set down anywhere in the world and find his way home.

It’s a difficult life for dependents but it is an invaluable experience. No snowflakes :).

It made him into a man who can handle everything life throws at him and still come out on top.

Of course, the quality of accommodations varied greatly from base to base.

I remember moving from a nice house and walking into the new one and thinking, “Oh, HECK, no.”

But, sure enough, in a few weeks it was home and I was used to it. I’ve always since been quite comfortable living anywhere.
