In regards to the question as to which Joe mans which vehicle, well let's just say thank God for Greenshirts.

Yeah, the bulk of my "defense" force would be made up of Greenshirts. The "real" Joes would be out behind enemy lines causing havoc.

I guess in order to make it a little more fun, how about we choose a few random vehicles to consider. For example,
Armadillo was always driven by Dusty. It's on the box art and his backpack nestles right into the space where the middle bar comes down without falling out. LCV was always driver by Recoil for me.

Since this is probably the best place to ask,
http://www.hisstank.com/gi-joe-news/...achmentid=3202 I just won this Dutch custom and I think he needs a filecard. There isn't much about the character to use so what sounds the most realistic. Isn't there a website that lets you create your own filecards? Anyway I'm looking for Ideas. I assume he is a Green Beret, but if he met Dillon at the battle of Hue that is sort of a Marine battle. Although the 1st Air Cavalry showed up later. |

So I'm still revising my list of Joes and what vehicles/stations they would occupy in an all out war, but I got to thinking about the military specialties on the file cards and tried to find a list of things that military personnel could specialize in. But I discovered that a lot of the Joe specialties don't exist anymore or may never have existed, at least in name/title as seen on the file cards. So am I correct in assuming that the primary and secondary specialities are the equivalent of MOS in the real military. Or are they the equivalent of ASI and SQI. Just for comparision I've attached some of the common specialities that the Joes have listed on file cards and beneath those are exampls of MOS, ASI and SQI. I guess my question is, what would a modern, realistic file card look like? Would Roadblock's speciality say Infantry Heavy Weapons or would it just say Infantry? Would it also say that he is a cook? Is there an actual Arctic Ski Patrol speciality like the one on Snow Job's card or would this now fall under a new title or could a person actually specialize in this in today's military?
