I remember some of her first appearances had her working at the Presidio in San Fran.

Jinx was born in the US (Los Angeles, California), not Japan (reference: GI Joe vs. Cobra: The Essential Guide & The GI Joe Data Desk Handbook, A-M). Just like Storm-Shadow, she was born in the US but spent a good portion of her childhood and early teens in Japan, and then moved back to the US in her late teens.

Zulu what are the main sources for those reference books? Do they refer to the filecards, comics, cartoons?

The Data Desk Handbooks are a companion 2-issue mini-series to the Devil's Due Production comics from a couple of years back. As such, they reference mostly the DDP continuity (which itself is partially rooted in Larry Hama's GI Joe comics from Marvel). |

According to both Battle Files and Special Missions:Manhattan, Mercer did serve in the Army before joining Cobra. No specific unit is mentioned.

If Mercer only had Cobra training, and never enlisted in the military, then his Rank should be on the GS scale... like the CIA.

I always viewed Mercer as an independent contractor, a mercernary like Bludd, when he fought for Cobra, not someone who believed in its cause. Then he switched to GI Joe when he realized how ruthless they truly were, even to their own men.

This is how I viewed him as well more of a merc. and one that comes to the realization that he is be treated like crap. He leaves to get his revenge on his tormentors and give them a good taste of a boot to the throat in the process!
