I think Freefall is one of the most overlooked, and under appreciated characters on the roster. I think he just came out at a weird time. He was a paratrooper/Ranger (awesome) but why wasn't he on Sky Patrol? Don't get me wrong, he's an awesome character - I just think it was the wrong time to add him to the team.
I use Airborne, Rip Cord, and Free Fall as my Regular Army Airborne recon Unit. Paratrooper Flint leads the Team. These guys act as the link in the field between Sky Patrol and the main Army, or they can act as sort of the "JV" sky patrol for the Regular Joe Army if they have to act independently. This is way off topic, but has anyone heard from Tall Creeper lately? |

Would the Joes employ assassins?
How do you use Budo? He's another one like Quick Kick that just doesn't seem to fit with the Joes and the military.

Wow.. read this filecard of Duke
YOJOE.COM | Filecard Gallery - Duke It's for the 2000 2-pack one, that came with Sidetrack. Who's a "survival expert". Doesn't say anything about his military training like Outback's does. So what does Sidetrack do? Is he special forces, infantry, ranger, what? BTW, that Duke is pretty cool looking and different enough that it could be a new character.

Speaking of Sky Patrol, why is everyone on that team an E8 or higher. I understand that Special Forces will work with an Operations Sgt who his an E8, but there's only one in a 12-man detachment. Not sure what the file card writers were thinking, especially making Altitude Sgt Major of the Army. What?
Sky Patrol is an odd one to place. Almost want to make the entire team Special Forces and independant of the main Joe team. Seperate squad that operates on their own kind of thing.

I like how the filecard says Duke has been with the Joes for over 30 years.
That would put him in his 50s.

Well, many of the odd balls in terms of uniforms/costumes are also in intel like Chuckles, Budo, Quick Kick, Jinx and Scarlett. So I think they should work together. I see them as covert, undercover operators who go out to gather information and their martial arts backgrounds come in handy since they get close up and personal with the enemy.
