I grew up on a Military Base, yeah I'm one of those Army Brats you hear about. The families that grew up there in Base Housing, the kids we were all friends. It was Officer Country, my dad was a Major, everybody on our block wasn't lower than a First Louie! Unless you counted the Command Sergeant Major he was the Highest Enlisted man on the base where half of the guys had never seen Action in Battle the CSM had been in Korea, Vietnam he had the scars and the medals to prove it. My best friend Joesph was his son. We were two of the three musketeers my other friend was named Silvio Garcia was the third. His dad was a Captain. He was Hispanic but the weird thing was his mother was white he had dark green eyes and brown hair, he could pass for a white boy, we kinda forgot he was Hispanic. I think at times even he did. I know that sounds racist but we kind of forgot that kids were different color we all saw Khaki. And rank insignia if it was an Officer you respected that rank. Now like I said Joseph was my best friend, he had a sister Camille, she went by Cami. She was the most beautiful girl I had ever laid eyes on in my 10 short years of life. Yeah, you could say I had a huge crush on her. Cami was 7. 3 years younger than me. It didn't matter for some reason something didn't work. She was in diapers still at 7, oh don't get me wrong Joeseph was a bedwetter Silvio as well so what my older sister was as well and she was 13, I was the weird kid I wasn't a bedwetter. Any way my 11th birthday was coming up I invited my friends, Cami was included. We went off base to the local Pizza parlor this was one of those places that had rides and games. You got points and could turn them in for prizes. We had just been informed by my dad that he was being promoted to Lt. Col. But with the promotion a transfer to Guam went with it. I didn't even know where the hell Guam was? I was bummed out at my birthday party! We would be gone before Joe's birthday and Silvio's wasn't until November. I was sitting there chewing on a piece of pizza. Cami came she sat a table over. She lifted up her leg she had skinned her knee. I got a good peek at her wet diaper. I don't know why but it kind of excited me. At 11 I got a stiffy from seeing a girl in a diaper. I looked away. Cami came and set by me. "Why are you so quiet Bennie?" "Just found out my dads getting promoted and tranfered." "Where to?" "Guam!" I said. "That's okay my mom and dad are getting a divorce. My mom's moving into town with me!" "Is Joe moving with you?" I asked concerned. "No, Joe is only my step brother. He belongs to daddy, I belong to mommy." "Oh. I didn't know!" I said. "Where ever you go I will miss you Bennie. You treated me good not many of my brothers other friends did, a lot of them made fun of me because I'm still in diapers! How come you never made fun of my diapers Bennie?" "I figured you already knew you wore them, you didn't need me reminding you. Plus my sister Caroline she wets her bed as well I got one of the worse spankings I ever got making fun of Caroline and her bedwetting. Kind of learned my lesson. Besides you were Joe's little sister my best friend!" "I like you Bennie, I guess I've always liked you!" "You know I guess I've had a crush on you Cami! Too bad were leaving here so quick." I turned the points I had gotten I got this cheap ring but It had little pink things I'm sure were supposed to be diamonds. I gave it to Cami. I don't know why but it reminded me of her! My dad was stationed in Guam for 6 years he tried and tried to get his Full Bird. In the military as an Officer if you don't promote within a certain amount of time you have to resign your commission. My dad was now a civilian. He had worked with computers. He got a great job making more than the military ever paid him. We returned to the states we ended up in Arizona, where Guam was Hot and Humid, Arizona was just plain hot. I wasn't used to it. I graduated high school I went college then, there was no way I was going to stay in Arizona. I moved to Seattle. I had been a photographer in Guam and majored in Journalism in college. I had got a good job with the Seattle PD I got to take those lovely Crime scene photos. You know the kind, people killing other's if it needed pictures I got to do it. I took more pictures of homicides, suicides you name it. I was close to the place where I lived! I grew up around here I tried to find some of my old Friends. Silvio was now stationed at the base he was in the army enlisted. He had lost track of Joe years ago his dad had been moved to Germany. All he knew was his dad retired soon after Germany. I was able to get a cheap apartment it wasn't in the best of neighborhoods. At least I didn't have to travel far for pictures of crime scenes. I had been at work and came home to find I had been a victim of a crime myself. My tv, stereo, DVD player my computer, everything gone. It was a good thing that I had my camera equipment with me or I would of been out a job! I decided to spend the extra couple of hundred a month and move to a better place. I moved, what the theives had left me with. It was a much better neighborhood but now I had to commute to the crime scenes. The only local scene I got turned out to be a suicide. The day I moved in there was another tenant moving in she had had two boxes her face was covered I saw a foot feeling the curb before stepping up. I said let me help you I took the top box. And I assisted the cute blond into her apartment that was above mine. I helped her get the rest of her boxes out of her car and into her apartment. The girl was staring at me. She said one word "Bennie?" I looked closer this girl was beautiful. It came to me "Cami?" I said just as unsure as she was we smiled at each other we were Old New Neighbors!

I usually wet myself before bed and am wondering if it is okay to stay in my diaper or if I need to change it because they are so
