I think as an elite unit the Joes would have a basic working knowlege of most of the equipment but The Helicoptors would be a different thing, a specialized feild. Even then I think alot of joes would be able to fly a Dragonfly or Tamahawk in a pinch but there were more qualified guys around all the time. The Jets are a different story tho, I think only a few guys would be trained with most Joes qualified to be the back seat man. |

Gonna have to respectfully disagree with you on that. None of Zap's filecards list helicopter pilot as a secondary specialty. I realize the comic may have made reference to it, but that's kind of my point. Why, from a writing standpoint, would Hama (or whoever) choose to make the team's bazooka specialist a pilot.

It's kind of funny that in the Declassified retcon, Wild Bill and Ace are around during #1 (they're the ones that get Shooter into position).

Speaking of Zap.
What kind of name is that for a bazooka trooper? Zap, the sound effect, doesn't really go with an explosion. It's more of a laser-kind of noise.

Wasn't Doc retconned in even before that. I seem to remember something about Doc being the one who treated Snake Eyes after he was injured in the helicopter explosion. I think that maybe even happened during Marvel's run.

Oh yeah, you're right. I think it was DDP's Snake-Eyes: Declassified.

I could be wrong, but I thought Marvel also retconned Doc at some point. But I think they sort of skirted around it by saying Doc treated Snake Eyes but he wasn't yet part of the team. I'm not positive, though.

It was in #144. It also featured Wild Bill(flew Doc there) and Vipers(disguised as Bedouins). The mission was to rescue George Strawhacker(Who was engaged to SEs sister)
