I don't know that I would call all those guys Joes, though; and anyway, they'd be Navy. So they ought to be wearing blue!

I think most joes start out as greenshirts then get promoted to a "real Joe".....just like in th real military. You don't go on covert ops right out of bootcamp.
I can't recall but I think that is what happened in the DDP series when they introduced a handful of new joes. |

Yeah, in the early Image/DDP days you saw alot of greenshirts. I believe we saw Kamikura get promoted from greenshirt to an official GI Joe in those early issues, but I could be wrong. Anyway as far as the toy goes, the Joes have been in desperate need of cannon fodder for 25 years now. I can't wait for my nameless greenshirt army, sign me up for at least three of those sets.

Nah, Kamakura was just a masked ninja from the get go. But we did see a whole bunch of promotions from the Greenshirt ranks...Barrel Roll, Mayday, Undertow, Mariner...I'm missing some, I'm sure, but I know they got promoted. I wouldn't look for DDP greenshirts in this pack, though.

I hope the greenshirts aren't dressed in only green with lame equipment and accessories.
Am I alone when I think the greenshirts should be pretty tough, with good equipment and accessories. I want modern day greenshirts, the best of the Navy, Army, Marines and Airforce, trying to get a spot on the G.I. Joe team. |

I just think of the Greenshirts as regular army guys who support the GI Joe team, not "Joes" in any real way.
I'd be up for getting them, but so far they haven't been done right... imo. |

That was the cool thing about the old green shirt pack, they were Joes in training, and the filecard names were left blank, so you could add your own code name!

Dude, what would be awesome, but highly unlikely, is that the "Greenshirts" are, in fact, the newer recruits; Kamakura, Firewall, Mayday, Barrel Roll and Doc Greer. |
