SHEARWATER RCAF 12 Wing BAse Brat Tall glossy ceramic mug
A military brat is a child of serving or retired military personnel. Military brats are associated with a unique subculture and cultural identity. A military brat’s childhood or adolescent life may be immersed in military culture to the point where the mainstream culture of their home country may seem foreign or peripheral. In many countries where there are military brat subcultures, the child’s family moves great distances from one non-combat assignment to another for much of their youth. For highly mobile military brats, a mixed cultural identity often results, due to exposure to numerous national or regional cultures.
Many military brats report difficulty in identifying where they belong (due to a lifestyle of constantly moving, and also immersion in military culture, and in many cases, also foreign cultures, as opposed to the civilian culture of their native countries, while growing up)[11] and frequently feel like outsiders in relation to the civilian culture of their native countries. The home countries of a number of Military Brat subcultures have highly mobile (modern Nomadic) lifestyles, or at least significant overseas (or distant-internal) assignments for career military families and their children and adolescents while growing up, including Canada, Britain, France, Pakistan, the Philippines, Australia, New Zealand and the United States. These military-dependent subcultures are generations old.
A strategically placed accent can bring the whole room to life, and this pillow is just what you need to do that. What’s more, the soft, machine-washable case with the shape-retaining insert is a joy to have long afternoon naps on.
This 15oz mug with our design is a little taller than your standard mug. It is safe for microwaving and washing in a dishwasher. It makes a great gift and a useful everyday item.
