Night Force
Hawk has this to say about the Night Force: "When the sun goes down, the G.I. Joe Night Force squad is ready for action! Night Force is a covert team specializing in nighttime surveillance and defense operations. Missions conducted in the darkness have special problems, which the Night Force has overcome with enhanced skills, sophisticated hardware and advanced technology.
"They use the element of surprise to vanquish the enemy, striking under cover of darkness and disappearing into the night, mission accomplished!" Marketing concerns aside, the Joes' Night Force has been a tradition for years, ever since the first group was assembled back in '88, peopled with some of the Joes' best nighttime operatives, those guys who are not only good at fighting in the night - but enjoy it!
Night Force 1988: |
 |
Tunnel Rat: after being raised on the rather surly streets of Brooklyn back in the day, Nicky grew up to be tough, indomitable, and somewhat jaded. Always looking for a good challenge, he's more than ready to climb into nasty Cobra tunnels to ferret out the bad guys! Tunnel Rat comes in Classic and Saga styles! |
 |
Night Force 2003: |
 |
Duke: before being recruited onto the Joe team, Conrad had a history of working in Special Ops, and brought that sneaky expertise to the team as its field leader. Second only to Hawk in the team's leadership, Duke has consistently led the Joes to victory against Cobra over the years! Duke comes in Classic and Saga styles! |

Nunchuk: originally a student of the mysterious Blind Master, Ralph eventually came under the tutelage of Storm Shadow himself after his first sensei vanished mysteriously. Soon after, he was skilled enough to join the G.I. Joe team, as a part of their Ninja Force! Nunchuk comes in Classic and Saga styles! |

Night Force 2004: |
 |
Beach-Head: one of the hardest, meanest Rangers ever to come out of Fort Benning, Wayne is a perfect addition to the G.I. Joe team, as his never-ending quest for personal perfection tends to rub off on others - even if it does so in a somewhat abrasive fasion...! Beach-Head comes in Classic and Saga styles! |
 |
|
 |
Flint: joining the Army for the promise of adventure after he grew bored with the 'Groves of Acadame', Dashiell used his innate smarts to excel in various areas of military expertise, and was recruited onto the G.I. Joe team by an old acquaintance of his, the one and only Duke! Flint comes in Classic and Saga styles! |
 |
|
 |
Roadblock: aspiring to be one of the world's greatest chefs since he was a child, Marvin put himself through the Escoffier School in France - and then joined the Army to learn from their chefs. Little did anybody know he'd become one heck of a heavy machine gunner, too! Roadblock comes in Classic and Saga styles! |
 |
|
 |
Short-Fuze: coming from two previous generations of Army guys, it was only natural that Eric would join with the Army himself. His natural mathematical capabilities made him a demon with a mortar, a skill which made him a candidate for the new G.I. Joe team! Short-Fuze comes in Classic and Saga styles! |
