Yeah I couldn't remember if Lowlight got shot too in that issue with Dart and Ripcord getting pissed off at Duke. Ripcord get shot too? The worse part of that debacle wasn't Duke using his teammates as bait, but the fact that Dart need to be treated for post-traumatic stress. I don't want to disregard how powerful its effects are on troops, but you imagine that firefight they had where everyone lived wouldn't be the one to break a guy. Maybe it was Dart's first action. |

I was thinking of the ones who weren't killed. I assume the KIA joes all got Purple Hearts.

Something about it just struck me oddly. Like it was a manufactured reason to get Ripcord extra pissed at Duke.

Ripcord did mention that it was Dart's first outing. That whole thing created a negative impression of Dart. To be a Joe, that means he's had to have seen combat before, and for that operation to give him PTS?

Not sure. Maybe just a flesh wound.

Thanks man. I was just thinking of a way to explain it, and the "high school" model seemed to be the best fit. It just sort of worked at the time.

Zulu I just saw you're newest uploads. They're great. I think that's a better use of Grid-Iron. And Grand-Slam as a SFC is great i always viewed him more of a leader than he ever got. But Courage... I nearly pissed my pants. Where did you get the Steve Urkel lookalike? Perfect. Somebody has to do that job.

Just looked at Courage. That's awesome.
Nice addition of the helmet to Grid-Iron. I prefer the knit cap, but that's a great homage to his original figure.
