Post by General Colin L. Powell.
The former U.S. Secretary of State was just 16 years old in the image. Guess much hasn't changed for teenagers and mirror pics in the past 60 years.
Powell joins a long line of politicians who have jumped on the selfie bandwagon, including another Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, and even President Barack Obama.
Now just imagine what he could have done with a front-facing camera and a Hefe filter.
