...or Beaver instead of Natalie, who looks like she was recruited from a trailer park.

Supposedly Natalie is based on a 12" Action Force and is accurate... but come on...

As an aside, I read that non-officers joining the SAS lose their rank and revert to being a "trooper", what happens in the US "Special Forces" (in my British view of the word, i.e. SEALs, Delta, Rangers and Green Berets too ;) ?
Perhaps this would explain why some members of GI Joe have low ranks but reasonable experience - they've only just joined and have yet to be promoted...?

Looks like Natalie gives a different kind of "action" if you know what I mean .
In the words of Bradley Nowell, "I didn't know she had that GI Joe kung-fu grip" |

International G.I. Joe Collectors' Convention - GIJoeCon 2010!
What do you guys think of the souvenir figures? When heard it was 2 Q-Force with kayaks I was hoping for Beaver. Instead we get Dolphin (who wasn't part of Q-Force) and Natalie (who the hell? I know she was some 12" figure). For Z-Force I pegged Gaucho (who they did a good job making stand out as more then a Gung-Ho repaint) and Jammer. But Lifeline painted as Doc? Huh? Weird... I'm not sure if I want 'em or not. Undecided. I think I really only want Dolphin (who is cool looking), Jammer and Gaucho. The repainted Indy car is odd. The base is odd as well. Natalie? WTF.

I agree. But the joes don't have a Combat Controller. I wonder what Jammer's Filecard will be? Quote:
A complete rundown of a military service man's MOS/Rating/AFSC qualifications and any of the formal training schools and courses they've attended is listed on their DD 214 form which a soldier/marine/sailor/airman or his/her immediate family can request once they get out of the military. On just about any other HR document though, the information listed is usually incomplete and only includes details that are pertinent to that document. What about payroll? And would they get extra pay for graduating from these schools?

Extra pay depends on the school and the unit a soldier is assigned to. For example, a soldier, marine, airman or sailor who is a graduate of Basic Airborne School only gets "jump pay" (a $150 monthly bonus given to airborne-qualified personnel) if they are assigned to an airborne unit such as the USSOCOM units (the Special Forces Groups, the 75th Ranger Regiment, the PSYOP battalions, etc.) or the various airborne infantry battalions under the 82nd Airborne Division. Graduation from most schools doesn't specifically merit extra pay, but many of them count towards an enlisted soldier's administrative points in order to get promoted to the next rank, indirectly entitling him/her to higher pay.
