So maybe this isnt a secret that lurks in the filecards. But maybe a secret that lurks in a voice actor. Don Johnson (voice of Lt. Falcon) and Kirstie Alley both grew up and graduated from Wichita, Kansas.
The reason I brought up Kirstie Alley is that she has a civilian-military background. I bought a "McConnell Air Force Base: Images of Aviation" book by Steve A Larsen today. Found a picture and caption, That Kirstie during her teen years worked as a lifeguard at the NCO club pool on McConnell AFB.
And it looks like we have The 22nd Security Forces Squadron Phoenix Raven Team here at McConnell.
A few weeks ago I was watching PBS Explore and they were talking about Buffalo Soldiers, after the indian wars, becoming the first unit to patrol the National Parks until Park Rangers became into existance. I had an idea of using Wild Bill's Tiger Rat body and hat without the vest with the head of the darker skinned GI Joe Trooper with firefly Toys R Us pack. I was thinking of making him my Little Bird pilot. I really have a mixed feeling of what I call him now... "Buffalo Wing" Basically making him a modern-day Buffalo Soldier that pilots a rotary wing aircraft.
Which also made me think about the Tuskegee Airmen, I had made the Movie Accellerator Ripcord head on Jungle RipCord's body without the gear into a Helo Airforce Pilot. But have to come up with a new codename for him too.
