I grew up with dad as an Air Force officer. We lived on base at Maxwell, AFB when I was in high school. The base provided us with a cheap built in fridge in the kitchen. We owned a good fridge and my parents wanted to keep it for when dad retires. We kept the spare fridge in my bedroom. We kept the leftovers and dad kept his beer in there. So had cold beer in my bedroom in high school.
At one party (lots of parties for social events to get to know fellow officers) the men were told if you want beer, it is in my son's room. More than a few eyebrows were raised. I knew not to drink his beer. It was not hard to buy beer on base even as a 16 or 17 year old, and I did hide a few beers in the there, but getting the empties out was a challenge without raising suspicion. I learned it was safer to just go out.
