Plus keep in mind that deep sea divers also wear pressurized suits to protect them from increases in atmospheric pressure at depths far below sea level, which can result in barotrauma. |

Are there any Joes that didnt have signifigant military training prior to their Joe status? Perhaps some of the Ninja Force guys? Hama-Lore would suggest that all the Joes worked there way up the military ranks. Marvel comics and my curiosity make me think there may be a few that slipped through the cracks?
Budo? All the Ninja Force guys bother me. Especially Dojo and TjBang since they are NCOs. I think this is how DDP sort of did right with Kamakura. But what about Ace? wasn't he a stunt man too? We know he was in the Air Force, but how do you leave to make movies and just come back? Backstop? What rank is he? I guess he's a naturalized citizen. Recoil, SCOOP!!?!?, DeeJay, Blast OFF. But the worst in my book is Space-Shot YOJOE.COM | Filecard Gallery - Spaceshot although ICE Cream Soldier is pretty close. |

Although probably none would work because you wouldn't be able to drive through most places. I combine the Jungle/Amphibious team into one. So that Jungle team is a SEAL/Marine team, stationed on some river bank on the TBP. They can move inland by Boat or Helicopter but very little mobility in the way of tracked or Wheeled vehicles. Mostly Swamp Masher, LCV, or Assault Quad, Jungle Humvee and the Awestikers. Otherwise you're walking. |

I would probably go with the Rolling Thunder since it has better ground clearance. ROCC and RHINO seem like Unban to me.

So here's the start of the Jungle Assault Team.
I used Tiger Force as the base model. The team is based in Sierra Gordo, base on the river a couple miles outside of town. I'm thinking the Joes took over and expanded the base from the first Recondo mission (the bunker at the bottom of the shear cliff). Not sure if it was near/on a river, but it will be now. This team is primarily for South American operations and can be moved to Africa if needed (the desert team isn't necessarily equipped to operate in a jungle enviroment), as well as Southeast Asia. From Tiger Force the following have been reassigned: Dusty, Flint, Frostbite, Jinx, Stalker, Beachhead, Alpine and Wild Bill. Base Commander - ???? Top NCo/Field Commander - Duke Medic - Lifeline Anti-Armor - Bazooka Heavy Weapons - Roadblock, Downtown EOD/Combat Engineer- Tripwire, Wreckage and Hardtop (Who also serves as a vehicle driver) Air Support - Skystriker (this is where the Tiger Rat's VTOL capabilities come in handy) Communications - Dial-Tone Intelligence - Big Brawler Infantry - Mutt, Grunt Armor/Artillery/Anti-Aircraft Vehicle Drivers - Steeler, Knockdown Anti-Aircraft Trooper - Salvo Drivers: Rollbar Vehicles would be: Air Support: (1) Tiger Rat and a couple Tiger Fly Water: (1) Tiger Shark and a couple of Tiger Fish Fast Attack: a couple Tiger Stings and 4 or so Tiger Paws Armor: MOBAT (I chose this because it's the smallerst of the tanks and can manueveur thru the jungle easier) Light Armor: a couple of Armadillos Anti-Aircraft: Skysweeper Support: Warthog Calvary: Hummer So the team needs more infantry and vehicle drivers. Base would have the support personal (mechanics, maintenance, guards, command center operatives, etc..). Smaller team, wouldn't need as much air support so would only maintain a couple of Tiger Rats. Most "big" vehicles would maintain only 1 or 2 on base, would mostly utilize the smaller ones. So who else would round out the unit? Who's the base commander, overall team leader?

Recondo Outback Ambush Crosshair Muskrat

Or Claymore. Pathfinder as well should probably be part of the team. Salvo is anti-Armor but what about Backblast?
