Guest guest Posted December 13, 2002 Report Share Posted December 13, 2002 Hi y'all I'm having a little chuckle over this. As an " Airforce Brat " I have a slightly different perspective on this. Kids of course pick up the vibes from their parents, and let me tell you, the attitude airforce brats had towards army brats and vice versa was rather amusing. We KNEW that those Army brats were a lower class of people and no WAY would we ever talk or become mates with one. The Army brats felt the same way of course. Navy brats were Aliens from outer Space and didn't fit in our Sphere at all! ROFLMAO! HOWEVER, having said all that, We always had more in common, and hooked up more easily with other Armed forces Brats, than Civie Kids. We didn't have ANYTHING in common with them, they usually didn't like us either. Weird world of segregation between the armed forces and Civilians.. Cheers!

Guest guest Posted December 13, 2002 Report Share Posted December 13, 2002 Now my husband and father in law was in the Army, so having a son a Marine is different for them. Now my father in law switched to Air Force for Viet. war. So he is a mixture!
