So maybe we can look at our first question about qualifications/training. Something like:
1. In the file cards, some soldiers are specifically mentioned as having certain training, while others seem like certain training could be inferred. For example, Flint and Duke are explicitly mentioned as having Special Forces training, while Recondo's position as an instructor at the Jungle Warfare Training Center, and his work in the comic book would lead us to believe that Recondo is also a Green Beret. Can you offer us a little more clarity on the military qualifications/training of some characters? In other words, were these soldiers intended to be Ranger Qualified? Special Forces Qualified? etc.
Spirit - Is he a Ranger or anything more? Psy Ops? Special Forces?
Airborne - Is he a Ranger?
Rip Cord - Is he a Ranger?
Low-Light - What is the extent of his training: Ranger? SF? CIA?
Stalker - we know he's a Ranger, but he wore a Green Beret. Is he Special Forces qualified?
Recondo - What is the extent of his training? Is he a Ranger? Special Forces? LRRP? His name would make me think he's at least a LRRP Ranger, and his work with the natives in Sierra Gordo is the kind of stuff Special Forces would have done. What else did you have in mind for this character?
Outback - We know he's a Ranger; is he a Green Beret/Special Forces?
Hit & Run - Is he a Ranger?
Big Brawler - What is the extent of his training? Ranger? Special Forces? Black Ops? Intelligence Support Activity?
Chuckles - We think he really works for C.I.A. or the D.I.A. Who is he really, and what is the extent of his training?
Claymore - This character has become a fan favorite among our group. I've been a huge fan for a long time, and there's a lot of mystery to the character. We know he's Ranger qualified... was he also LRRP trained? He did three tours in 'Nam, and worked with Intel... Was he a Green Beret as well? Was he working with the CIA/MAC-SOG on the Phoenix Project?
Falcon - when he's listed as having served with "Blue Light", was that a reference to Delta Force? Did you intend for Falcon to be a Delta Force Operator as well as a Green Beret? Is he the only one who intended to have worked with Delta Force? Or in Joeverse, was the Joe Team your version of Delta Force?
What do y'all think of this question? Do we need to add more names? Do we need to word things differently? I think I might submit our questions one at a time so we don't overwhelm him. When we hear back from him, we can submit another question.
I hope this doesn't overwhelm him. He may be rolling his eyes when he sees the depth of each multi-part question. Like Shatner at a trek convention.
