Gentlemen! Long time, no see...
Quite a while ago, I recall a discussion in here about how Ice Storm might have been a member of the SBS based upon his specialty and the fact that he is listed as a Sergeant (rather than a Naval rank). I recently created an Ice Storm custom that is aimed at this general idea. Additionally, I have another character that I need help with a name for. He's dressed in the same uniform and I'm considering him to be another Brit, assigned to the Joe team along with Ice Storm. I am considering having him be a member of the Royal Marines. Any suggestions on a name for the second character? |

Any suggestions on a name for the second character? Of the top of my head Boot Neck ? It's the nickname of the RMC and is the equivalent of the term "Leatherneck" I'll have to get back to you on others |

I didn't remember that Bushido was Jewish. Clutch most certainly is.
Are we simply saying that Bushido is Jewish based on his file name? So we're asserting that he's genetically Jewish, but it would seem that he would be more of a practitioner of an eastern religion, probably Buddhism. Budo is Budhist... so are most of the ninjas, probably, but I hold that Snake-Eyes was probably raised a Christian, and possibly still see himself that way. Arguably, his relationship to Scarlett may influence him to still list Christian on his dog tags. I'm not trying to get into any kind of religious debate, but merely a matter of interest in the Joes bios, which is filecard related. Also, it's a professional interest for me. I'm an Ordained Methodist Minister. Religion is what I do. |

I think we figure Bushido is of a Jewish heritage because his filename if Lloyd Goldfine. Half of the Ninjas Force guys are from New York, and have non-Asian, Italiansounding surnames.
I think Leatherneck may also be Jewish. But it's hard for me to differentiate which German last names are more likely Jewish. Quote:
Yes. Sorry, I forget its both an ethnicity and religion.
I find characters like Bushido, Dialtone, the rest of the Ninja Force, Torpedo, Airborne, Gung Ho and so forth, well, I don't know how to say this, but 'novelties', as because Joe's make up reflects Americas, there is a overwhelming amount of people of German, Irish and British decent.

Hey Oliver, I've been meaning to ask, did you find your dogs?
It sucks they were stolen. I know what a big part of the family they become. |
