Vann, Crimson Tide, forgot about that! ANYTHING by Tom Clancey is good. I like his investigating prior to writing. His books usually include technical stuff in the front, making the story and nomenclature of weapons, ships, subs, aircraft easier...

I think the best war movies are ones based in real fact. I know the add a love interest or so but the bottom line is keep it true to history. Watching the Battle of the Bulge is real hard. The tank battle took place at Ft Carson, not the Arrde...

Military Brats Online contains blogs, articles and essays about a wide range of Military Brat experiences, from everyday life on base to moving around the U.S. and traveling overseas. We also have many discussion groups for alumni organizations, photo albums where members can share with other members as well as polls.

Many members will post comments which generally affirm our unique cultural as Military Brats. take at look at the following: Christmas in Mannheim, Germany, Bomb Shelters, Duck and Cover, Castle Climbing in Germany, Been There, Done That, AFRC Vacation Time, Part 1.

Military Brats also identify strongly with the the branches of our U.S. military forces: Air Force, Army, Marines, Coast Guard, and Navy. While each branch of service is different, the experiences of Military Brats - being part of something larger than the sum of it's parts - is the same for all Military Brats.
