Nice that maked a lot of sense. I would swap Rock'n'Roll and Short-fuze but that's just me. The beard just screams Green Beret more than almost any Joe. Plus Rangers use mortars and have fire teams the Green Berets do not.
Grunt would need something else to overcompensate for his lack of spec Ops background. Like he won every meritorious award through boot camp and rated high in every single aptitude test so they didn't know where to stick him because he was good at everything. Every drill Sgt and instructor who had him put him at the top of their list of outstanding recruit. Marksmanship, pistol, jump, Demolitions training, vehicle maintenance, artillery coordinator, small arms maintenance. Every Special Ops unit wanted him the Joes just got him first. Everyone wanted him as a Ranger or Green Beret, or Cavalry Scout Pathfinder, but Hawk wanted him for him. A jack of all trades who is good at everything he does, and never quits. Extremely loyal and is not into titles.
I imagine after Grunt left went to MIT or Georgia Tech? as an electrical engineer and then came back his role would change. He may have gone to become an officer? I could see him staying enlisted as well, but why get that degree and not put it to use. I would say the Joes Armourer, small arms designer as well as a Squad leader.
He's a Joe and he doesn't need to be anything else and I bet that is exactly what Hawk wanted.
