Added Valorie Burton to List of Famous Military Brats

[edit]

It's a Wikipedia list, and her Wikipedia bio clearly shows her as the child and teenager of an American military family, who grew up moving over wide distances. That identifies her as a part of the subculture of former U.S. military kids, also known as Military Brats. "Military brat" is a respectful term in military culture, by the way. It is used by social researchers and the Department of Defense. It's a very old American military and also British military term, meaning the "child of a career military family".

It's also a unique subculture that these children grow up in. It doesn't mean she doesn't also have her other ethnicities, but that military brat subculture and mobile lifestyle was a part of her upbringing.
