I'm a Marine Brat
My moms side is from Maryland/Virginia and my Dads side is from Northern Calif. I definitely notice the bay area accents when I go out to visit my family. My grandfather is from Sac but my uncle/aunt are from Monterey. Theres definitely an inflection there and its kind of cool. I dont think I have an accent. I've heard my voice is a bit mellow. If I do its pretty slight but I have lived in Virginia for the past 19 years. 7 years in Okinawa, Japan before that. When I was an active most of my bros considered my home town here hickville but then I think people down by Virginia Tech/Blacksburg have more of a drawl. Even more so when you head into the dixie states. I have to admit I have a week spot for the southern belles that have that drawl. At school I noticed more of an accent from those in the Maryland area around Baltimore or up in New England. Like Bahston.
