2024/Charles -

Sometimes it’s difficult to be a military child because you have to leave friends behined. And sometimes your Dad or Mom deploy to war and you never know if you're going to see him or her again, and for me I don’t remember anything, but all that I know is that I got to see him again, and he went on four seven month deployments. And we only got to see him 32 day’s out of the year.

But if I never moved here, I would have never gotten to see Australia, Korea, Vietnam, Tokoy, Koyoto, Keramas. And if I never got stationed here I would have never hiked Mt. Fuji a week before my birthday! And if my Dad would have never been stationed here I would have never seen cool coral reefs, cool hikes, and the awesome views you get to see when you get to the top!
