SUMMARY: This 30-line poem takes you to the late 1960s and early 1970s in Europe, where for military BRATS, moving around was common, going to movies a bit different, and where military personnel and dependents still ate K-rations.

USE? For students, this can be read or recited in relation to history or for speech presentations. Adults, who were BRATS, will appreciate the details.

NOTE: “Europe BRATS: Looking Back” is included in my book, Military Brats in Cold War Germany.
