Good morning, Everyone. Good morning to our
Military, our Allies, and their families.
Thank you, Tibby, for preparing the Canteen for today’s activities. Kudos to the Military Brats of this world. Without your sacrifices and perseverance, your parents would suffer the challenges of a military career much more. You help them be all that they can be by rolling with the "punches."

But, anyway, I was wondering if I could hang out with you Military Brats since I've been called a Brat? Huh? Huh?
