Definitely one of the many overlooked MOS in GIJoe. I really never heard much about the FMFRID guys before. But the Corpsman, PJ, Air Combat Controller, and maybe a SeaBee would be much needed additions.

Stretcher's filcard makes no mention of prior service branch, except that he served as a front-line medic for one of NATO's roughest combat unit. So why not a Corpsman? It's perfect.

Well, I've already updated Lifeline as a PJ. I'm remaking one of the Sky Patrol guys as a Combat Controller (just haven't decided which). Re-creating a "named" Joe as SeaBee is a little iffy. Maybe one of the SEALs could have a source rating from one of the Construction Battalion ratings, but an outright active SeaBee on the team just doesn't fit in with any of the positions I've detailed in the organization.

Hartop as a former SeaBee gone SEAL? lol None of the other SEALs make much sense in that regard. |

Yeah, of the SKy Patrol guys I haven't remade, I think he's the only one whose original filecard doesn't explicitly hint at his branch of service (the other guys, IIRC, are all Rangers and/or SF).

The problem with having a SeaBee go SEAL is that there isn't any crossover between the SeaBee source ratings and the SEAL source ratings (I know the SEALs have recently discarded the source rating requirement, but I like to hew to the traditional SEAL personnel sourcing as close as I can).

On the subject of Pararescuemen: Wouldn't the SkyPatrol Airborne make a great one? He's a combat medic with no specific branch. It's a shame he shares a name with the 83 character. Maybe a slight name alteration? It occurs to me the name Airlift could be appropriate name from both a military and medical standpoint.
