I and my sisters, too, grew up as military “brats”. Stopped moving when Dad retired, parents and youngest sister moved across the state halfway through her high school years. She had been in the same place for six years – the longest of any of us kids while living with the parents. She never recovered from that move. She felt parents didn’t care about her to uproot and move her from the place she had made home. A most promising child had a tragic end.
