"My first years in the Army were extremely valuable, as they served as the foundation upon which my G.I. Joe career would be built. Every G.I. Joe worth his weight in ammo received training at one of the U.S. military branches, although no training can replace field experience when it comes to raw combat. When the shells start exploding and the bullets start to fly, you'd better know how to react with split-second reflexes. As a G.I. Joe, you not only learn when to stand and fight, but when to take cover as well!"
Action Soldier is a G.I. Joe team operative in the A Real American Hero line. First released as a Hasbro carded action figure in 1994, with 1 distinct figure version produced across the 1982 to 1994 vintage run.
