Finding Fellow Miltary Brats
If you are trying to find a fellow brat, try the Military Brats Registry first. This database is for any brat, any branch of service and covers both stateside and overseas schools.

Even if you don't find the person you're looking for, take the time to enter yourself in the database because others may be looking for you.

Search Engines
Using "search engines" can be a great help as well. Don't give up if one search engine doesn't help you find what you are looking for. Try other search engines as no one search engine has everything available on the web.

We have also put together some searching tips on our Finding Friends page which you may find helpful in your search.
