I've read in several places that Owen went to a milatary school. Did the Luke and Andrew also go? I've never read anywhere that they did - If they didn't why would Owen have been the only one?

Hello and welcome cindylouwho Owen is the only one of the brothers who went to a military school. All the Wilson boys went to St. Mark's High School (the poshest school in Dallas) but Owen got expelled in the tenth grade because he was found to have cheated in a geometry exam but refused to give out the names of the friends who did it with him. Then he attended Thomas Jefferson High School but found it stressful to be in a different kind of school (not posh). Then he decided to go to New Mexico Military Institute. It was his own choice (He thought about military career several times later on in his life - when Bottle Rocket didn't do well, etc.). He had a hard time there too but he learnt a lot of things there (following even stupid rules, finding humour in the hard situations, etc.) and graduated. I once read somewhere that Luke missed Owen a lot when he was at the military school and was living at a dormitory, because Luke had always had two brothers and suddenly one of them was so far away. I thought that was really really sweet. Btw Owen met a friend at the military school who later introduced him to Wes Anderson when they were all going to the University of Texas at Austin. OK I did try to make this reply short If you have any other questions or any suggestions for the forum, please let us know, Cindy! I hope you like being here and stay! Love xxx BP

Sorry I am just posting on this thread because something is wrong with this thread (it doesn't show the number of replies and the poster names) and it went right to the bottom of all the threads in the Owen General section. On edit: It seems it has been fixed with my post. Weird Weird like me!
