Filecard information:
Code Name: DROP ZONE
SKY PATROL WEAPONS SPECIALIST
File Name: Delisi, Samuel C.
SN: 675-4109-SG54
Primary Military Specialty: Sky Patrol Weapons Specialist
Secondary Military Specialty: Special Forces Advisor
Birthplace: Poteau, Oklahoma
Grade: E-8
DROP ZONE loves his job, every olive-drab bit of it. He is at his best when the cold wind hits his face as soon as he steps out of a C-130 transport at 20,000 feet. He relishes the smell of gun oil and nitro solvent on his MAC-10. The sound of artillery rounds soaring overhead is music to his ears. He still can't believe that he actually gets paid to have this much fun!
"Just because he volunteers for every hazardous assignment doesn't qualify him for a special commendation. This guy is fully aware of all the cruel realities that accompany a battle. His main concern is to successfully complete the mission to the best of his ability. Drop Zone is a true G.I. Joe dogface. He believes that duty and honor still have meaning in today's complex society and that Cobra™™ is lower than pond scum!"

Except for the new head sculpts, all 6 Sky Patrol figures were repaints. Drop Zone's entire body is a repaint of 1986 Strato-Viper.
The Sky Patrol Joes came with a remake of the 1985 Mail Order Parachute Pack and a silver parachute with "radar reflective coating"
