Flint is a weird one. He's gotta be pushing retirement by the time he hit his stride in the mid 80's. I mean he's a Helicopter pilot and he's a bookworm and he's Special Forces qualified. That guy must've had no social life at all.
What suprises me is that a lot of the Joes in the early sets are e-4 and e-5's with WAY too many qualifications and schools under their belts to stay at such a low rank. I'd imagine that in order to make the joe team you'd probably have to get SF qualified and that pretty much bumps you to e-6 upon completion. That's why most of my joes get promotions and Flint is a Colonel now. |

Heh - my first thought on reading this was "yeah, the pilots". What with smart bombs and over the horizon radar and such, anything that fires at sniper range is way too short for them.

I love Barrell Roll, not sure why.
But yeah, I see him as a solo sniper and the glider is for deployment behind enemy lines. I think all the Stall siblings are air force, I think I read that in the filecards. Hey, here's a question, who are the Joe Rangers? For sure: Stalker Beach Head Side Track Tunnel Rat Alpine Crankcase Roadblock Questioned: Repeater Recondo Mutt Outback Muskrat (the last 4 cause of jungle warfare training) Wild Bill Duke Flint Scarlett Snake-Eyes (LRRP days, and what exactly is a "commando"?)

That's true. I just found out that Beachhead is listed as a Green Beret on the Convention exclusive. But I imagine once you become a Green Beret wouldn't that be your calling card from that point? Of course then how do we explain Duke?

Or Flint. Those two seem to have the most qualifications. Where would they fall? Rangers, Berets?
Not surprising they're the two main field leaders of the Joes.
