This is always the toughest group to figure out. I would think that a "Rescue Operation would be part of the Joes Wheel House, and a CBRN Special Ops team would certainly be something these Joes should be a part of like the Chemical Reconnaissance Battalion. But they are so boring. These guys need alternate roles and then they come together when a CBRN issue arises.
What are the rest of the Laser guys doing like Sci-Fi or Grand-Slam? I'm just looking at where I shove these guys and aside from some of the medics like Lifeline, they are all together too. I feel like all my Troops need at least one Medic. And I agree each Troop needs one medic. With whatever I have left over I have them placed in a medical troop under the combat services support squadron. They would be responsible with setting up a mini-first aid/surgery stations on forward operating bases and the like for when causalities may be rolling in. |

I love the set up Darkhawk75 btw. Its a solid team. Not to take anything away from your troop there.
My focus with this same group is more focused on the special weapons role I envision the Joes have with field testing new equipment and development. So Airtight's Ordnance role, Clean Sweep's Combat Engineer MOS, and Ozone's Chemical Laboratory Specialist role is needed for all the Plasma and Laser weapons the Joes are developing from captured Alien tech. All my flamethrowers are firing Plasma Weapons. I know it's ridiculous, but so are flamethrowers on the modern battlefield.

Given the Dragonfly news, it seemed like a good time to renew the list of Joe chopper pilots:
Wild Bill Lift-Ticket Windmill Dogfight Updraft Major Altitude Flint Recondo Cannonball Glenda Lighthorse Is that it?

Blades from Special Action Force in the 2009 con set.
Chopper too if you're counting the other AF pilot. Volga from 1997. Daina too. |

Steel Brigade Commander v1
Zap in the comics. Then Bulletproof v1 is listed as Apache Qualified and 91 Dusty can fly the Locust if you count those.

Hey guys, hope you're all doing well.
I was reading Dan Klingensmith's newest Joe book the other day and it had a write up of Grunt v3. I never noticed it before but the figure has a Special Forces patch on his jacket. Guess we can add him as another potential SF Joe. |
