Well Zulu that makes the most sense of all. I imagine all the Federal Agencies have their own police Forces and a few have even more elite police/SWAT type units.
I'm with you Oliver, I can't make him an officer either. But Zulu may have come up with the best compromise/explanation. With the Convention figure he will forever be FBI, and his Quantico training will be linked to his FBI career. I'm still on the fence with Hollow-Point as a Warrant Officer, or Cannonball for that matter. Red-Zone seems like an OK move to Warrant Officer since he really has no character besides the Filecard and he is listed as a Helicopter Pilot. Chuckles also makes good sense to be a Warrant Officer instead of just E-5. He comes across as too experienced to be just an E-5. Link Talbot as a Warrant Officer works for me. But he could be an Officer as well. Personally I've embraced the Lt. Torpedo Moniker and he leads the SEAL teams. so I can't have Link outrank Torpedo. Anyone making the move of Scarlett to WO or Lt? I moved her to Captain myself. One character I'm wondering about is this Steel Brigade Delta figure. Is he suppose to be the Steel Brigade Commander? Steel Brigade Commander has no rank listed so I don't know what rank he should be given. He is also listed as a Helicopter Pilot. Quote:
I wonder how Pittsburgh area Joe fans feel about Steeler?
He's a Capt. in my Joe force. Gen Flagg leads the Armor units with Storm and Steeler. Considering I only have maybe 20ish Armored vehicles it's a bit of overkill but one is the General and the other is the MCC. I don't know about Red Zone because I haven't really looked at him. However, if he's a pilot, it's the only way it works: Pilot = at least a Warrant Officer. It also makes sense that if he's an experimental (lazer) weapon specialist... that seems like a "subject matter expert". I could see Sci-Fi and Zap working for him. I think of Link Talbot as an enlisted SEAL. He got his Vet training as a civilian, so it would have no bearing on his rank in the Navy if he returned to the SEALs Scarlett... I have never really liked her. I just keep her as an NCO. Steel Brigade Commander (from the Convention) I think of him like a Colonel... almost like Sure-Fire. Maybe a Major, but a Field Grade Officer none the less. However, my Steel Brigade is HUGE, so it needs a higher ranking officer. I also promoted Steeler... to Major. He commands all Joe Armor in my Joeverse, and so he needed to be on par with Major Barage in Artillery and Bullet-Proof in Infantry.

I think you're confusing Red-Zone with Red-Spot
I'm talking about this guy: So any guesses on who this Steel-Brigade Delta Figure is suppose to be?

I happened to go look at the 1982 Filecard of Hawk,that comes with the MMS. His rank is listed as 0-6. His next updated Filecard has him as a Brigadier General. I hope I remember that correctly.

Just some generic troop builder type is my guess.

Thanks for clearing that up about Red-Zone and Red-Spot. You're right, I was getting them confused. Yeah, if he's a pilot, it only makes sense that he would at least be a Warrant Officer, but if he's former FBI... well, after Bull Horn, I guess the FBI isn't considered to be all that important on the Joe Team ;)
