My wife's stories about moves as an 80s/90s/early-2000s army brat are mostly ones of everything getting broken and, over the course of 10 or so moves, almost anything resembling a keepsake or memento (or even just a favorite toy) eventually being in one of the several boxes per move that the movers straight-up lost. Sad stuff.

'Course, her dad was enlisted, so that may have made a difference. About as high-ranked as he could be toward the end, though, and AFAIK their moves were still awful.
