The Military Child Education Coalition Bernard Curtis Brown II Memorial Space Camp Scholarship About Space Camp NASA Space Camp (www.spacecamp.com) is a place of learning where kids come together for a journey they will never forget. For many, it is a life- changing event – helping them make decisions about their educational and vocational careers. This extraordinary adventure teaches our youth about astronauts and space travel... and so much more. They learn leadership and they develop bonds of friendship that can last a lifetime. The Military Child Education Coalition created a Space Camp scholarship program in memory of one of America’s bright young Military Children, Bernard Curtis Brown II. Bernard, the 11 year-old son of Chief Petty Officer and Mrs. Bernard Curtis Brown, died tragically on September 11, 2001, when the hijacked airliner on which he was a passenger, crashed into the Pentagon in Washington, D.C. At the time, Bernard was on

his way to California to represent his school at a National Geographic event. Bernard’s parents agreed to allow the MCEC to honor Bernard’s memory with this scholarship to provide other militaryconnected children with the opportunity to experience the worlds of science and learning, and share their experiences of service to the nation, as proud members of Military Families.
