As for Flash, I'm thinking of making him the team's fire control systems repairer... part of that MOS' responsibilities is the maintenance of all laser designation and targeting devices which, I think, is a plausible real-world analog to the whole "laser trooper" thing (in the Marines, they even have people who are specifically trained to work almost exclusively on laser designation systems... IIRC, the MOS is called "Electro-optical Systems repairer" or something like that) .
Sounds like this guy:

Dodger should have been a marine. Or if they used him instead of Clutch as a Mega-Marine then there would have been less doubt if the other's were Marines.
I'm a fan of Dodger. He's the only BF2000 guy to live. Why was that? He made a decent appearance in the DDP run which was one of my favorite in that series, just for the sheer fact they had so many randoms in those few issues he was in. It was Claymore, Big Ben, Dodger, Stalker, against Overkill, (Who happened to be the same Saw-Viper that killed all the Joes in the Battle of BenZheen).
I can see the laser guys having a place but their roles can vary. Spotter, Sniper, Infantry? All 3? Someone suggested using them as Drone operators, which would seem like a good fit. Still The Joes really need Air Combat Controllers rather than Lasertag.
Flash? Sci-Fi? Red-Spot? Dodger? Grand-Slam?
