Don’t worry, you’re not seeing double. 👨🏼‍🤝‍👨🏼👀⁣
⁣
Meet identical twins Senior Sergeant Rob and Sergeant John Henderson. ⁣
⁣
Aside from sharing looks, they both share a love for renovating their homes, a Bunnings trip, and the diversity and challenges that come with policing. ⁣
⁣
Growing up, they worked at the same workplaces, starting out by delivering newspapers to working at petrol stations, in retail and manufacturing, and then policing. ⁣
⁣
Rob joined Victoria Police in 1993 at 22 years old, with John following suit seven years later in search of better job security after working as an apprentice auto electrician. ⁣
⁣
Between them, they have worked across Melbourne in areas including general duties, the Bicycle Patrol Unit and Highway Patrol. ⁣
⁣
As you’d expect, Rob and John have had their fair share of mistaken identities on the job. ⁣
⁣
When they worked together at Fawkner Police Station, most of their colleagues could only tell them apart by the watches they wore. And yes, you bet they took advantage of this from time to time. ⁣
⁣
Both expressed similar sentiments when asked what life is like with a twin and having the shared experience of policing.⁣
⁣
“It’s like hanging out with your best friend 24/7.” ⁣
⁣
Not to mention the constant battle to make sure they’re not dressed the same, which is unavoidable in policing. ⁣
