And this is modern day me. Now out of The Army and retired from Mississippi State Troopers. I started the whole Vin Diesel look on the head when I found out he was 3 years older than me so I thought I would try it myself being that I got tired of everyone saying in the dojo that (The reason they were holding back was because they felt like they were hitting their Dad) because the combat stress from fighting in every conflict from 1987 to 1997 that kind of accelerated my aging process and then the stress of Law Enforcement over a 30-year career didn't exactly help either. So I figured the head shaving seems to work for Vin Diesel to make him look younger so I gave it a try and in the dojo they started throwing regular kicks and punches at me without holding back and told me I looked more my age so I have stuck with it. LOL.
