A brief Joe timeline that I came across when trying to set up my Joeverse:
1979: A U.S. Army Special Forces team under the command of Lt. Joseph R. Colton is overrun by Communist Borovian troops in the central highlands of Borovia. All team members except for Colton, 1st Sergeant "Top" Wenzel and Specialist Angel Vasquez are killed. Vasquez dies on the extraction chopper en route to Bonn, Germany. President Jimmy Carter founds the original G.I. Joe team. Lt. Colton is placed in command (Colton is unofficially code-named G.I. Joe). 1983: Conrad "Duke" Hauser enlists in the U.S. Army. 1985: Conrad "Duke" Hauser joins U.S. Army Special Forces and works with tribesmen in war-torn Borovia. Joseph "G.I. Joe" Colton retires from active duty and becomes an adventurer and explorer. 1987: Stalker, Storm Shadow, Snake-Eyes, Wade Collins, Ramon Escobedo and Dick Saperstein fight Communist Borovian soldiers. Escobedo and Saperstein are killed and Collins is seriously injured. Believing Collins is dead, Wilkinson, Arashikage and Snake-Eyes retreat and are rescued by an extraction chopper. Collins is captured by the Borovians and held in prison for the next two years. On the way to the helicopter, Borovian troops fire on the landing zone, wounding Snake-Eyes. Despite Stalker's orders to leave him, Storm Shadow runs out in the field where Snake-Eyes is lying wounded. The helicopter's pilot and gunner give him cover fire. Storm Shadow somehow evades enemy fire and rescues Snake-Eyes. "Duke" Hauser turns down a U.S. Army officer's commission. Snake-Eyes returns home from Borovia. Snake-Eyes' parents and twin sister Terri are killed in a head-on car collision while on their way to meet him at the airport. U.S. Army officer Clayton M. Abernathy (aka Hawk) travels to the airport and informs Snake-Eyes of the accident. The driver of the other vehicle, an unstable Borovian veteran and the brother of the future Cobra Commander, is also killed in the collision. 1988: Snake-Eyes travels to Japan to live and study with Storm Shadow's family and ninja clan. U.S. Marine Blaine L. Parker (aka Mainframe) begins a tour of duty in Borovia. 1989: The future Cobra Commander, blaming his brother Dan's death on Snake-Eyes, hires Firefly to kill Snake-Eyes. Using his status as a ninja master, Firefly becomes apprentice to Onihashi, the swordsmith of the Arashikage ninja clan. American troops leave Borovia. Many POWs are released, including Wade Collins. The war ends, and the Communists win, although it's not long before the Berlin Wall falls. Upon Wade Collins' return home, his wife's lawyer meets him at the airport and serves him with divorce papers. Collins, unable to find a steady job, travels around the country. He will eventually join Cobra Command. 1990: While watching a practice session between Snake-Eyes and Storm Shadow, Firefly realizes he is no match for Snake-Eyes and refers Cobra Commander to Zartan. Cobra Commander hires Zartan to kill Snake-Eyes. Zartan becomes apprentice to Onihashi. 1991: Stealing one of Storm Shadow's arrows, Zartan kills Storm Shadow's uncle, the Hard Master, believing he is Snake-Eyes. He escapes in a helicopter piloted by Firefly. Storm Shadow is blamed for the murder and leaves home. He will eventually join Cobra to learn the identity of the assassin. Onihashi commits suicide after learning of Zartan's actions. Snake-Eyes leaves Japan and moves to a cabin on Iron Knife Ridge in the High Sierra mountains, where he lives in seclusion. 1992: Cobra Commander leaves his wife, taking his son Billy with him. He will eventually form Cobra Command, headquartered secretly in Springfield. Billy will eventually leave his father but stays in the Springfield Anti-Cobra underground. 1993: The honorary member of the Arashikage clan later known as the Blind Master loses his sight. 1994: Brigadier General Lawrence J. Flagg re-establishes the G.I. Joe team, officially named Special Counter-terrorist Group Delta. Flagg places "Hawk" Abernathy, now a colonel, in command of the new team. Together with Specialist "Stalker" Wilkinson, Hawk recruits Snake-Eyes as a member of the team. 1995: The final roster of the new G.I. Joe team is completed: Specialist James "Grand Slam" Barney, Cpl. Eric "Short-Fuze" Freistadt, Cpl. Anthony "Flash" Gambello, Specialist Robert "Grunt" Graves, Pfc. Alvin "Breaker" Kibbey, Cpl. Craig "Rock and Roll" McConnel, Cpl. Rafael "Zap" Melendez, Sgt. Shana "Scarlett" O'Hara, Sgt. Ralph "Steeler" Pulaski and Cpl. Lance "Clutch" Steinberg. (Also Shooter) The Joes are trained in hand-to-hand combat by Scarlett, who surprises them with her fighting skills. Snake-Eyes allows her to beat him, though she recognizes he's better than he lets on. Intrigued, she begins spending time with him while off-duty. 1996: SE is injured in a Helicopter accident 1997: Cobra agent Brian Hassel infiltrates the U.S. State Department. He will later become an ambassador. Snake-Eyes returns to active duty after spending six months hospitalized for his injuries sustained in the Middle East. 1998: The G.I.
