"I never know what's on the other side of that door. That's why I'm there, to kick it down! Do you think I'd do that if I knew what was behind it? Get real!" A former choirboy and Detroit police officer, SHOCKWAVE™ had all the qualifications to be the point-man for the special G.I. Joe D.E.F. ™ detachment.
Every special weapons team needs a "door-kicker." He's the guy who crashes through the barricade first with all weapons blazing to find out how bad the situation really is. At least on his D.E.F. assignment, the brass have seen fit to supply Shockwave with a mobile robot-tank battering ram to save him a bit of shoe leather on the door-kicking part. Now, if only they could teach the robot how to shoot straight!
