Jump to: navigation, search

This is a list of military brats. Military brat is an objective term used to describe the children of somebody in the military who identify themselves as members of the unique subculture of military children and teenagers. A number of English speaking countries have distinct lifestyles and subcultures for military families (especially career military families) and their children arising out of the children's continued association with the military subculture.

Military brat is not a subjective term but is considered a derogatory term. It is still used as term of endearment by military members within the military culture. It is also a term of cultural identification.
