I just scanned through the new
GI Joe: Cobra
#1 today and it seems like Christos Gage (who's one of the most underrated talents working in comics these days, BTW) is writing Chuckles as more like a private operator to whom Hawk outsources certain sensitive missions, and that the whole CID thing is just a convenient cover for his contract. I can see a lot of Joe fans having issues with this, but personally, I think it's an interesting take.

Yeah, that was actually something of a minor running gag during the early days of the Marvel comic. The chaplains would be all like "what's up with all these requisitions for the motor pool?" and Hawk and Scarlett would come up with these half-assed explanations. I guess that's where the "fiction" and "suspension of disbelief" has to come in on the part of the reader.
