It is supposed to flare to the left like that. It is more pronounced when standing at parade rest like in the photos.

The shorter one (older) is now a cop, married with a child. The taller one is still trying to get a job as a cop in Nevada.

YK, if he wants to go the Marine route, he should do well. But be aware, it does change them.

Thank you, that's the image of Y2K forever burned in my brain, and a fine one at that. How old was he here?

I remember when you first posted those pics, sure don't seem like 7 years ago. I always heard other people saying how fast kids grow up, never got it till I had my own....
