Filecard information:
Code Name: SKYDIVE
SKY PATROL LEADER
File Name: Felix, Lynton N.
SN: 131-4569-F X90
Primary Military Specialty: Sky Patrol Leader
Secondary Military Specialty: Personnel Administration
Birthplace: Pensacola, Florida
Grade: E-8
SKYDIVE spent ten years on staff at the Ranger School in Fort Benning and earned a reputation for being the toughest NCO* in the program! He would skip breakfast just so he wouldn't spoil his appetite for eating snakes and water bugs. A twenty mile forced march is a piece of cake for this guy. Ranger trainees hate his guts when he puts them through the ringer during the program. In time, most come to appreciate his devotion to "train hard and fight easy," especially after they've fought their first hand-to-hand battle.
"Sky Patrol operates deep within enemy territory, eut off from supply and support. There can be no margin for error when you're that far behind the lines. One mistake and you're history! Only a battle-hardened veteran can pull off a mission without a hitch. That's just the type of leader you'll get with Skydive-the most successful head-knocker in the patrol!"
*Non-Commissioned Officer

Except for the new head sculpts, all 6 Sky Patrol figures were repaints. Skydive's entire body is a repaint of 1987 Gyro-Viper.
The Sky Patrol Joes came with a remake of the 1985 Mail Order Parachute Pack and a silver parachute with "radar reflective coating"
