I guess I'm in the minority of liking Barrel-Roll as an Officer.
However that makes the card sort worthless. Since I doubt there are any Officers that are marksmanship instructors. But I'm more a purist and the card clearly states E-4. Him being a spotter is also a good role for him. I don't know enough about the 24th Special Tactics to see if he fits in with them.
Like Zulu mentioned before and how he created Barrel-Roll was to have him as a Countersniper, which is one way the Air Force uses Snipers. That would be a good fit for him. To role in with Sky Patrol and seize an airbase or druglord's landing strip and hold it until reinforcements arrive.
Personally, I like to thnk of him as a unique individual with a special set of skills uncommon in most soldiers. I view him as an officer that is set for promotion, which is why he isn't a Captain yet. But I thought I remember reading that his father was Air Force as well. So I figure they are playing up his level of dedication stemming from family tradition. He just seems like the ROTC sort of guy who went to school just to be an officer in the Air Force and fly planes. For whatever reason he is not a Fighter pilot, but maybe he never wanted to be one. Then I hit a snag, with him being a sniper and an officer.
So I view him more as 31P3.
