- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The story told here, holds true! (An Army Brat)An officers son, I could easily place myself in many of the situations here. With comments, phrases, events, I’m sure many a “Brat” have lived, questioned WHY!?, and was forced to toe the line. It’s been a life time ago… yet in an instant I was back to being a little boy on the bases/forts… finding treasure and troubles.
This book may stir old memories, and make you thankful for the experience you through not knowing why!
Thank you for the trip down memory lane! - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5July 2009 COTC Book Club selection.
Highly enjoyable, but very sad in parts. As it's a coming-of-age story, this would also likely appeal to older high school students. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Loved this book! Interesting look at life as part of a military family.
