Okay, so here’s a decent list (may not be all inclusive) of the Joes who are explicitly confirmed or closely confirmed via interpolation by the file cards as having severed or trained in Special Forces, Ranger School, the Marine Corps and/or Vietnam. You may add any I missed and/or your list of "probables" below.
Special Forces:
Breaker (“Project Gamma” was run by Detach B57, Company E, 5th SFGA, 1st SF)
Duke ("Went Special Forces in 1969")
Flint ("Special Forces School")
Falcon ("...served with the 10th SFGA...")
Drop Zone (“Special Forces Advisor”)
Joe Colton ("Recruited by Special Forces...")
Beach Head ("Special Operations Weapons Sergeant (18B)")
Ranger/LRRP/LRP or Ranger School:
Scarlett
Snake-Eyes (“Ranger qualified and graduated from Recondo School in Nha Trang”)
Clutch
Wild Bill (“LRRP”)
Stalker
Alpine
Flint
Lady Jaye
Crankcase
Beach Head
Claymore
Crazylegs
Sneak Peek
Tunnel Rat
Outback (“Ranger Handbook (1969 edition)”)
Starduster
Muskrat
Repeater
Recoil (“LRRP”)
Free Fall
Skydive (“spent ten years on staff at the Ranger School”)
Storm Shadow (“LRRP”)
Marines:
Gung-Ho
Leatherneck
Mainframe
Sgt Slaughter
Hollow Point ("...served with Marine Expeditionary Unit")
Sgt Stone (Marine tatoo in ROC film)
Vietnam Service:
Snake Eyes (“...served in Long Range Recon Patrols in South East Asia”)
Stalker (“...served in the same L.R.R.P. unit with Snake-Eyes...in Southeast Asia”)
Gung-Ho (“Recondo School” probably in Nha Trang)
Wild Bill (“...participated in LRRP...during South East Asian debacle”)
Duke (“Worked with tribesmen in the boonies of South Vietnam”)
Spirit (“Served in South East Asia...”)
Keel-Haul (“Flew Phantom F-4s off the Intrepid in the late 60s...”)
Leatherneck (“1st Recon Bn in Vietnam”)
Mainframe (“...made it over to South-East Asia for the last year of hostilities”)
Claymore (“...served three hitches back to back somewhere in South East Asia” probably in Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia)
Outback (the "Ranger Handbook" of 1969 implies he probably served in a LRP company and then a Ranger company in Vietnam)
Tunnel Rat (official Tunnel Rats only served in Vietnam)
Payload ("He flew F-4 Phantoms over southeast Asia for three tours")
Repeater (“With close to twenty years in the Army...” he most likely served in Vietnam though it's not certain)
Recoil (“LRRP” units only served in Vietnam)
Joe Colton (“In 1963, after participating in ‘ultra’ top secret combat operations and extensive tours of duty in trouble spots around the world...” probably includes a tour in Vietnam)
