Hundreds of Students at Military Base Schools Walk Out to Protest Trump Administration's Anti-Diversity Policies

13. I grew up on duty stations in the Pacific.

Lived in the service until I was a teen. It was awesome, until dad retired and we had to move back to a highly segregated state.

Being a brat, embracing so many cool cultures, befriending others of various nationalities, exploring beautiful untrashed places, eating such amazing food, that was my childhood (because dad volunteered for WWII and stayed in the service for his 30).

Nobody in my jr high or high school had any experience outside their home town. Boring, hostile, resentful people.
