My parents had 4 boys, two of them in the early 70s and two in the early 80s.

Our heights are, in order, from oldest to youngest:

* 5' 7", same as our father

* 5' 9"

* 5' 11"

* 6'

Now obviously the sample size is quite small, but we've always wondered if nutrition had something to do with it.

Nutrition is correlated with childhood growth. Was there a reason why how much they were fed would have changed with each individual, but not across the entire cohort?
