Mercer is also given 2 different names, the Slaughters Renegades had one name and the Battle Corps figure had the other.

D'oh! It is Collierville. Cordova, Collierville. It's all the same! lol
I think Hama must have just closed his eyes and pointed at a location, because there was nothing in Collierville back in '87. As a kid in '87 I don't think I had even heard of Collierville. lol And Med-Alert is from Nashville. Statistically, there are usually more Southerners in the military. I don't know how that applies to the Special Forces. You would think with more Southerners in the military, that would naturally mean more in Special Forces, but that may not be the case. Either way, we need more Southerners on the team, and they don't need to be stereotypes like Cross-Country. Special Forces, to the best of my knowledge, is no exception to this ratio. I served at Ft. Bragg with 4th Psy Ops group, which is part of Special Operations Command. I worked with Special Forces on nearly a daily basis (no, nothing crazy or super sexy - I'm a Chaplain). A lot of those guys - A LOT - were Southerners. For this reason - and because I'm biased - I would like to see more Joes from Mississippi, Alabama, and Georgia. Tennessee getting a third Joe is a step in the right direction.

Airborne v1 vs. Sky Patrol Airborne Long Range (I think there were two) Side Trackv1 vs. Side Track v2 (sometimes called Ranger Side Track) Why are we not doing that with Mercerv1 vs. Merer v2? Should we be recognizing them as different characters?

Well, I assume other Joes went to Annapolis, but weren't necessarily born in my state.
There are a bunch of Joes from Northern VA...I lived there the past two years (grad school) and I don't envy them. According to this list Complete Guide to G. I. Joe: Joe Geography which seems pretty current, there are no Joes from Delaware. There are also NO Joes from Washington, D.C. - our nation's capital. That's a real shame too. Super Trooper should have come from there. He likes things bright and shiny.

Mercer is the same, filecard says basically the same thing except for name. I chalked it up to his background, one was the name he used when first got out of the Vipers (trying to hide his identity) and the other the name, his real name, when he officially joined the Joes.

Law Major Barrage Wild Bill Ice Berg Effects 5 isn't a bad representation, but a couple more wouldn't hurt a bit. Always liked Texas. I got family out in El Paso. Nice place. What kind of Joes would you like to see from Texas?

Doesn't that second Mercer file card say he's like an E-9 or something. It seems strange that a Viper turncoat would join the Joes in 1987 and outrank Duke in a few years.
