to recognize the service and sacrifices of the military "BRATS"

Created by M.W. on September 30, 2014

BRATS are the dependent children of military personnel, active, reservist, national guard, etc. They are a little know subculture of the nation. Many subcultures have been officially recognized by the president and congress and it is time that the military BRAT receives official recognition for the service and sacrifices that they have made for the nation. They are the ones that have the most difficulties adjusting to moving to various base every 2 to 3 years following their parent's assignments. They have endured being without a mother or a father when the parent is deployed overseas. They have suffered through the good bye to their best friends and then becoming the perpetual new kid on the block. Let us not forget the ultimate sacrifice when a parent does not come home.
