If Bazooka was good at using heavy engineering equipment I might buy that, but not the explosive ordnance disposal. That's a very specialised skill.

Falcon became a Green Beret and was part of Blue Light Group, which I believe was the precursor to Delta Force before becoming a Joe. It kind of fits with his 87 movie persona where he started off as an underachiever and in the end redeemed himself.

I only see two ways Falcon could have been in SE Asia, have done Blue Light, and then join the Joes as a Lieutenant. Either he commissioned from the ranks or he knocked up a string of generals' daughters.
As the son of a green beret I can see Falcon picking up Spanish from Hispanic kids on base and French at an international school during an overseas posting. Or maybe it was Arabic during an overseas posting, though I'm not aware of green berets doing any advisory missions in the Middle East in the 60s or 70s.
