Who Started OSB?

Overseas Brats was founded by Joe Condrill, a journalist, reunion planner, and marketing/public relations consultant.

Joe himself grew up attending several American schools overseas, experiencing firsthand the unique lifestyle shared by military and civilian families abroad.

He attended the following overseas schools:

• Boeblingen Elementary School – Boeblingen (Stuttgart), Germany — 1963–65 (3rd–4th grades)
• Orleans Elementary School – Orleans, France — 1965–66 (5th grade)
• Kaimuki Intermediate School – Honolulu, Hawaii — 1968–69 (8th grade)
• Maryknoll High School – Honolulu, Hawaii — 1969–70 (freshman year)
• International School of Bangkok – Thailand — 1970–72 (sophomore & junior years)
• Tehran American School – Iran — 1972–73 (senior year)

Joe’s own experience moving between overseas schools inspired the creation of Overseas Brats, helping reconnect people who shared that same global upbringing.
