I was bored, so I compiled this list of where the Joes were born. I didn't include Action Force (I got tired by the time I got to them), and I didn't include GI Joe Extreme (mainly because their bios don't list birthplaces). I know there was a thread asking about this, and maybe someone has already compiled a list, but I'm too tired to search for it.
This list is by no means definitive, nor is it guaranteed 100% accurate. I scoured YoJoe.com's File Cards to make this list, and I skipped repeated figures. If their Birthplaces changed, I didn't note it, I simply listed their original Birthplace. (It's interesting to note that Delaware and Washington D.C. got no love in the Birthplace list as far as I could tell.) I also didn't list characters who were renamed, i.e. Double Clutch, etc. Once Clutch was listed, I didn't bother with the renamed version. The same goes for Agent Scarlet, General Tomahawk, etc. If anyone wants to update this, feel free. Maybe someone can get some enjoyment or use out of this list, but if not, I still had a good time making it. Enjoy! (Attn: Mods/Overlords - If this is posted in the wrong location, I apologize.

That's a cool list. Thanks for this!
Oh, and Snake Eyes was born on a military base in Okinawa. Not really. I just made that up.

I didn't realize that many people live in Rhode Island! I guess having the Hasbro factory there means more Joes came from there.
