yes. one of the stupider moves in the AM mythos if you ask me.
i wrote a fan-fic series where 'Action Man' was the name for a whole team of badass British commandos. the leader was called 'Alex Mann', but his codename/nickname was 'Axe'. |

So remember my theory a couple hundred pages ago, that Joe's pieced their uniform together throughout their life to look unique and not look like ordinary military?
Tripwire attached his dad's Navy patch onto his uniform, to not look like an ordinary Joe. Shipwreck kept his Dixie Cup and dungarees so he could shrug off duty, but attached his Chief's patch to his uniform. Cutter, I dont have any clue how he has Dungarees being an officer his entire career. Tho, they barely resemble the Tropical Blue Long uniform. Also, he acquired the Boston Red Sox' baseball cap, probably serving at the Boston Coast Guard station. Keelhaul's shirt looks Air Force instead of Navy. Maybe during Vietnam while he was flying F-4 Phantoms he was transferred short term to an Air Force unit. He formed a friendship with a buddy in the Air Force that traded shirt's, and his friend was killed in action and thats why he wears an Air Force shirt.

I Like your tripwire explanation. That's great!
What about Duke's Airborne (Marine) Wings? or Spirit?

Gonna need to think about those. I remember awhile back someone found out what the different colors of the chevrons meant during the civil war until the mexican war for the US Army. That would help out with Spirit's shirt, but I cant remember.

Around post 6134 we started talking about Spirit and his shirt. That's all I could find so far.

the Marauders have got to be the weirdest sub-team going.
the packaging fluff says they're an armoured force - hence the Lynx, Armadillo and Equalizer - and who do they put in it? an infantry trooper, a scout/tracker guy, a dog handler, a sniper and a frickin' firefighter. what the eff? Surely it should've been like, Steeler, Grand Slam, Thunder and Cover Girl or something?! Hell, even Bazooka would've made more sense since he was a damn tank driver... |

Good point. Had never really thought about the Marauders, but the choice of team members doesn't fit the team profile.
Weird...

that and i don't get why Lowlight was never in Night Force or Airtight in the Eco-Warriors. Lowlight's role is supposed to be night spotter after all and Airtight's NBC and what's toxic slime shite if it's not chemical warfare...
