but all the other Joe's real names arent.
I know the real life wrestler Sgt. Slaughter's real name is known to the fans if they search the net, but the GI Joe universe version in the toy, toons,comic, why is it classified? |

To keep the anonymity of the Wrestler. Remember, back in the 80's, even though we knew wrestling was fake, most people still considered it real. Thus giving the real name of one of it's wrestlers meant doing away with the chracters "realism".
The others...no idea why. Snake Eyes is a classified above top secret miltary weapon, so he's protected much like some of our American agents. Besides, it'll ruin the mystery of one of GI Joes flagship character were it to be divulged. The others I'm at a loss...

If they revealed a picture of Snake Eyes dressed in nickers and a big straw hat like Christopher Robin or something, I don't think I'd ever be able to take him seriously again.
