The military family is different from the normal family in many ways. There are many basic differences in the lifestyle of the military family that the normal family will never experience. The military lifestyle is of a necessity a unique experience. It is not normal nor should it be because of the nature of the job which has to be accomplished. The military family has to face, adapt to, and overcome many of the hardships that the normal family will probably never experience. This in itself makes the military family so unique. The military family exists in a highly structured environment if they reside on a military base, and more so if the base is in a foreign country or an isolated city. The environment is a multi cultured environment whereas the rest of the country is normally not so. Many of our cities are more multi cultured nowadays but this is a very recent development.

There is a very distinct advantage to this, especially for the children because they experience some of the mores and customs of other cultures. Many times this is a positive thing but it can also be a negative. Most often than not it is a very good thing. The family that lives on an installation wakes up to revile each morning and listens to taps in the evening. They will hear the sounds of troops doing physical training and may have to hear the sound of artillery and tanks in the field. They are used to the active service member being alerted in the middle of the night so it is not a big deal when that family member does not come home after normal working hours. The biggest negative occurrence which is an inherent part of being in a military family is that one of the family members may be absent from the household for extended periods of time.  Read more...
