Roadblock would be an Indirect Fire Infantryman, the cook thing would be in his bio/personality part.
Snow Job would be infantry, he'd have specialized training in Arctic survival and combat techniques.

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?

So what did you guys think of the movie trailer?
I liked it. I can't wait for the movie now. Yeah, it wasn't the classic Joe, but as a movie it should be pretty good.

I loved it. With all the naysayers I was starting to have my doubts. But I knew better. It is what it is and it'll be great. This is just the thing the line needs. Kids will love it. I kind of wonder what some people think they woould be getting. It's suppose to be a summer blockbuster for kids/teenagers and I think it will deliver.

Yeah, like I've said in other threads, this movie is NOT FOR US. It's not a nostalgia-fan movie. It's a movie to get new people into the franchise. It's made to be a summer blockbuster movie, which are usually nothing more then exciting action movies, shot on plot and acting but long on explosions and exictment.
I loved Transformers and am looking forward to 2: Revenge of the Fallen. That trailer was awesome. Did I love Transformers as an old school fan? No. I loved it for what it was, a big entertaining movie.

I wasn't into Transformer toys as a kid, but I loved the cartoons. I couldn't buy both Joes and Transformers. I thought the movie was good and the new movie looks even better. I don't see how the Transformer movie ruined the Transformer franchise nor do I see how the Joe Franchise will be ruined. Although it will be a little more confusing now.

It'll be like Star Wars and Transformers are now: Legacy lines, movie lines, comic book lines, etc..
All I know is that it'll be more Joes on the shelves and more kids getting into Joes. Which is needed. For Joe to have a 50th anniversary, Joe needs to make the "us" of today.
