Nope, just New England unfortunately. Btw, much earlier some one said CT had three joe members.
I know Airtight is from New Haven.
I suspect Strecher is Hartford.
Who is the third?

does this make Blowtorch, Barbecue, and Lightfoot front line EOD's or support rear guard staff?

Tunnel Rat has EOD speciality, but needs to be in the field where this may be required, along with his other specialities.
I know it is probably old news at this point, but it goes to an issue that has been burning in my mind.
I consider and use Barbecue as Navy. I do not believe his filecard specifically states a branch. His uniform also seemsto imply a mobile/combat firefighter better used on the USS Flagg or Tactical Battle Platform.
Regarding the TBP, wouldn't it make more sense to classify it under Coast Guard? It has legs and need to actually reach the ground, not get lucky and match old oil derrick legs like in the comic.
Opinions?
