the way I'm treating GI Joe in my fan-fic is that, since they were reinstated in 1995, they are a special military task-force operating under direct Presidential control outside the usual chain of command and with a force structure unlike anything else. Hawk is the CO and reports to the President, but the Joes have to beg, borrow and cajole the regular forces to get kit, range time (for flight exercises at RED FLAG or wherever) and so on.
Captain Falcon leads the SF unit of Green Berets/Delta types: Recoil, Hit&Run, Alpha Dog, Spearhead, Footloose and Beach Head.
Torpedo leads the SEAL team: Wet Suit, Wet Down, Tracker, Night Fox, Lone Star and Depthcharge with Shipwreck as SWCC.
Captain Grid-Iron leads the infantry team which basically comprises the fire-support element and the other non-SF qualified guys.
Sky Patrol is a six-man paratroop recon/Pathfinder team
Marine Raiders is a six-man amphibious recon team
Major Storm leads the mobile artillery/mechanised assault unit - basically the M1A2 Abrams tanks, Wolverine missile tanks and Armadillo mini-tanks, Cover Girl, Clutch, Skidmark, Rampage, Rollbar, Steeler, Switch Gears, Thunderwing, etc.
There's then a Naval ops unit (Cutter, Topside, Rampart in a WHALE), an Arctic ops team headed by Snow Job (Frostbite, Cold Front, Windchill, Sub Zero, Blizzard etc), an extreme conditions unit (Dusty, Big Brawler, Outback, Recondo, Pathfinder, Muskrat), an EOD team, a MP/K9 unit (Shockwave, Wide Scope, Mutt, Surefire, Law), a medical team (Lifeline, Med Alert, Stretcher, Guardian Angel, Swimfin and Splashdown) and then the Air Wing - which is not really a wing - Ace leads Barrel Roll, Bombstrike, Dogfight, Skystriker, Freestyle and Ghost Rider in the fighter squadron (with three OCs), while Wild Bill leads Lift Ticket, Windmill, Updraft, Major Altitude and some OCs in the helo squad.
Stalker is senior NCO since Duke retired. General Flagg is XO, Col. Courage is Ops officer.
So how big is your total unit? What's OCs?
