I think that would be a great job for Falcon. He's certainly qualified for that kind of work. I use him as the commander for all sub-groups. Even if he doesn't always go with them, they report to him. I also have him in his classic role as the Night Force Commander
... just another word about Falcon: his file card lists him as part of "Blue Light" group. "Blue Light" was one of the early code words for Delta Force. I always understood Falcon as having served as an officer with Delta Force before coming to G.I. Joe.
I may not be telling anyone anything they didn't already know, but Delta Force specializes in counter terrorism and urban/close quarters combat.
Since Falcon is the leader of Night Force, and he's got a background with Delta Force, I use Night Force as my "Delta Force" of G.I. Joe. They're considered the most elite unit among all my sub-groups, and Falcon personally leads this unit.
So, I think the way you've suggested using Falcon is great; it makes a lot of sense. Special Forces usually works in that teaching capacity in teams of at least 2 - so I could see Falcon and Outback as a great pair for that kind of work.
Falcon and Claymore certainly have a lot in common - though I do think there are some important differences. But Falcon is not just a "Green Beret". He's one of the best trained commandos on the whole Joe team - He's former Delta Force and an Officer. He's a lot tougher than most people give him credit for.
Honestly, I thought Falcon and Claymore should be considered to be every bit as tough/important as Duke and Flint. There are a lot of similarities between the pairs.
