Abstract

LAY SUMMARY The focus of this study was on family and community. Interviews with 23 adult children of Canadian Armed Forces Veterans who served between the Korean War and the Gulf War suggested key capabilities were developed that supported them in meeting demands and contributed to adaptation over the course of their lives. Living on military bases was identified as a significant resource shaping identities, intensifying bonds with others who also grew up as military children in that era. Participants shared insights on how their experiences could inform contemporary military family support programs and policies.
