I think at this point I'm pretty straight on whose who and who goes where except this...which is gonna make alot of people click off of this thread, here goes.
Ninja Force. Ok, so these guys we're basically hand picked by Storm Shadow because they are the best of the best and worthy of fighting under him for the Joe team? Right?
Next, it says these guys are also "Infantry"..so, does that mean they went through basic in any of the Military branches, then resumed training at Arashikage Temple and became Joes?
I just always thought ALL Joe team members served in a legitimate branch of Military and excelled to the point where they were selected to be G.I. Joe.
Ninja Force gives me the idea that none of these guys ever served. They were martial artists from the get go, worked the ranks of Arashikage Temple, Storm Shadow put the team together and said "hey these guys are the best, swear them in as Joes and I'll do the rest".
Also wasnt Gen Flagg or Hawk (?) very reluctant of the NF team in the begining because they had no prior military training?? I may be wrong there.
In my world, these guys were the exception. Never soldiers, if they had any sort of basic/military training it was briefly through the G.I. Joe team, they have no previous military training or affiliation.
