National Military Brats Day - April 30th

National Military Brats Day

Today, April 30th, is #NationalMilitaryBratDay!  Today we pay tribute to the often overlooked sacrifices of the children of active duty military personnel.  Imagine never having a home for more than a few years at a time! Imagine being shuffled from location to location and school to school for (sometimes) your entire childhood… having to establish new friendship, join new sports teams and having the constant fear that your father and/or mother is deployed to a dangerous location!  Today we celebrate those of you who understand these sacrifices!  We thank you for your understanding and thank you for for being an integral part of a team that 24/7/365 fights to keep our great country safe!

In honor of #NationalMilitaryBratDay: check out these celebrities who grew up in military families (broken down by branch): Jessica Alba, Bart Starr, Wiz Khalifa, Amy Adams, Priest Holmes, Timothy Leary, Michelle Rodriguez, Faye Dunaway, Tiger Woods, Emmylou Harris, L. Ron Hubbard, Jim Morrison, Lou Diamond Phillips, Steve McQueen and 100s of others!
