Children of full-time military parents are referred to as military brats.
The lifestyle of a military brat is unique and as someone with no close family in the military, interesting to me.
One day, while walking through a house, I found hanging on the wall the coin of the military brat.
It’s a commemorative piece and gift for kids in military families and features an acronym that speaks to what characteristics and values a military brat should uphold.
Some collect coins, I collect acronyms. Here it is:
