Here's something I always found funny about Ambush's file card: "Ambush has no trouble staying out of sight. When he was ten years old, Ambush participated in a neighborhood game of hide-and-seek, then disappeared for three days. It wasn't until the National Guard was called to aid in the search that his well-camouflaged hiding place was discovered under his parent's front porch."
I don't know, but shouldn't he have realized that the other kids would have given up searching after an hour or so? He hid under the porch for three days! Either he had a mean step father or Ambush was a little slow. Well, his IS the lowest ranking GI JOE member I beieve.

What's funny is that Crankcase is Ranger qualified and has done some training with the S.A.S. That's about as close to Special Forces as any vehicle driver in G.I. Joe... with the exception of Wild Bill, who was a LRRP.

Because Duke is just really an evil semi-clone of Hawk planted by Cobra. Just wait... you'll see.

I'm always surprised that Hawk wasn't Special Forces. He was in Field Artillery, I think. If you're recruiting a Colonel to head up a new covert ops team, why wouldn't you get a Green Beret? Was Gen. Flagg Special Forces? I don't think it's ever mentioned. Big Brawler would be another good choice for Special Forces.

Sorry, of course General Colton is also Special Forces.

Well Gen Tomahawk V2 is listed as a Ranger for his PMS but that's just the once. |

But Version2 Mercer is one of my Favorite figures. Maybe because he's a Virginia boy, but my theory is that he was so undercover for the government that when he came back he received his due rank. His first incarnation was just a brief period of witness protection where they hid his Identity. But my Mercer is always, Richard Cecil. |

General Hawk, I would encourage you to read through this entire tread. There's a lot of info here, and a lot of the points you're bringing up are good ones that others have already shed some light on.

There can be no doubt that a West Pointer and combat officer like Clayton Abernathy would have gone to Ranger School. He may very well have done some time in the Ranger Regiment.
