"military brat" (also known as
"brat",
"base brat",
"army brat",
"navy brat/junior",
"marine brat", or
"air force brat") is a person whose parent(s) served full-time in the
armed forces during the person's
childhood. In conventional usage, the word "
brat" is
derogatory; in a military context, however, it is neither a subjective nor a judgmental term.
[1] It is a term in which the military community takes pride.
[2] Historically, the terms were ""Army brat" and "Navy junior." In recent years, however, the term "brat" has come to be used for all services. The phrase itself is often considered to be a development of the term 'diplo-brat' (as a play on the word diplomat), referring to the children of parents who work in various embassies, consulates, binational centers and international organisations, and as such are members of a certain so-called 'elite' set of the international community.
Navy brats experience the most long term separation from their military parent.
Although the term military brat is used in other English speaking countries, only the United States has studied its military brats as an identifiable demographic.[3] This group is shaped by frequent moves, absence of a parent, authoritarian family dynamics, strong patriarchal authority, the threat of parental loss in war, and the militarization of the family unit.[4] While non-military families share many of these attributes, military culture is unique due to the tightly knit communities that perceive these traits as normal. Although they do not choose to belong to it, military culture has a long-term impact on brats.[5]
As adults, military brats share many of the same positive and negative traits developed from their mobile childhoods. Having had the opportunity to live around the world, military brats often have a breadth of experiences unmatched by most teenagers. Brats identify with other highly mobile children—regardless of race, religion, nationality, or gender—more than they do with non-mobile ones.[6] Military brats typically have a love for their country, and have been raised in a culture that emphasizes loyalty, honesty, discipline, and responsibility. Sometimes these s are so strong that they cease to be virtues and become weaknesses.[7] Many struggle to develop and maintain deep lasting relationships, feeling like outsiders to U.S. civilian culture.[8] This subculture cuts across other cultural identities.[2]
