The thing with grouped by year is that 87 was such a big year. Like 24 characters or something. Maybe swap out communicators Troop Sgts, and Medics with Mobility types guys as communicators, Troop Sgts and Medics to add to the pool of characters.
Muskrat, Leatherneck make good Scuba guys. I assume you are skipping certain characters to form some other sub teams,(you may have mentioned it before, but I forget) like the Renegades? Battle Force 2000? Laser guys(who should make good snipers in another outfit), Breaker Dial-Tone? Last edited by Loose Cannon; 09-16-2015 at 07:34 AM.. |

has anyone actually sat down and figured out how many are actually Rangers?
Beyond the obvious ones, Stalker, Snake Eyes, Duke, Beachhead, Flint, Storm Shadow, Wade Collins, Repeater. I would guess Ripcord, Rock N Roll, Roadblock would be in there too. |

Listed on Filecards? Those last three have never been listed although all three could easily be Special Forces.
Ranger School or Rangers Hawk Stalker Snake-Eyes Clutch Flint Lady Jaye Alpine Beachhead Outback (assumed because Ranger handbook reference) Crazylegs Claymore Duke Starduster Sneak-Peek Freefall Dart Sidetrack Crank-Case Tunnel rat Rampage

Who most likely are Rangers or went through Ranger SChool is another topic.
(I forgot Muskrat, SkyDive and Repeater) Airborne, Grunt, Grid-Iron, Super Trooper, Rapid-Fire, Dial-Tone, All Sky Patrol, Mutt, Pathfinder, Recoil, Rock'n'Roll, Spirit, Footloose, Hit&Run to name a few. With many going through SPecial FOrces.

Muskrat, Leatherneck make good Scuba guys. I assume you are skipping certain characters to form some other sub teams,(you may have mentioned it before, but I forget) like the Renegades? Battle Force 2000? Laser guys(who should make good snipers in another outfit), Breaker Dial-Tone? I have most of those characters in my Support Squadron. Since reading "Kill Bin Laden" I felt that characters like Breaker and Dial-Tone would be better utilized as signals interceptors versus a Troop Communicator. I feel they have more specialized radio skills. I figured the Troop Communicators are just keeping in contact with HQ, kind of like an 11B Infantryman in a standard platoon who is given RTO duties. I strongly considered using the laser guys as snipers but ultimately put them in my R&D section. I do not do any sub groups, but may name A Squadron "Tigers" in honor of Tiger Force and B Sqaudron "Night-somthing or another" in honor of Night Force. Here is my Support Squadron. Note these are not the only characters in these sections. There may be six named characters in the Signals Section but there might be about 10 more unnamed Joes as well. I do not have the time or interest in filling every spot on my roster. E Squadron (Support) EOD Tripwire (83) Deep Six (84) Lightfoot (88) Long Arm (93) Depth Charge (03) Dog Handler Mutt (84) Law (87) Wide Scope (03) Signals Breaker (82) Dial Tone (86) Dee-Jay (89) Airwave (90) Metalhead (95) Sparks (07) Heavy Breacher Blowtorch (84) Charbroil (88) Barricade (92) Medical Doc (83) Computer Technology Mainframe (86) Sgt. Hacker (03) Hard Drive (04) Kickstart (10) Intelligence Scarlett (82) Lady Jaye (85) Jinx (87) Chuckles (87) Mace (93) Big Brawler (01) Agent Faces (03) Helix (09) Rook (06) Training Wing Sgt Slaughter (85) The Fridge (86) Research and Development Gears (94) G.I.Jane (06) Hi-Tech (04) Dodger (87) Knockdown (87) Blocker (87) Blaster (87) Flash (82) Sci-Fi (86) Red Spot (03) Psychological Operations Psyche Out (87) Are you referring to Joes that previously served with the 75th Ranger Regiment or ones that went through Ranger school? I interpret any Joe card that states "Airborne Rangers" as having served with the 75th. This would include Sneak Peek and Starduster. Clutch, Tunnel Rat and Crankcase clearly say "Ranger School". Some others are not so cut and dry though (such as Stalker). |

Where's Mercer, Taurus and Red Dog?
Sky Patrol? Long-Range, Armadillo, Dodger, Zap, Hot-Seat and Tollbooth strike me as more Senior Sergeants.
