Stretcher uses his "enormous" Olympic weightlifter strength to carry even the beefiest of injured Joes from battle.
Filecard information:
Code Name: STRETCHER
MEDICAL SPECIALIST
File Name: Larivee, Thomas J.
SN: 040-9812-JA41
Primary Military Specialty: Medical Specialist
Secondary Military Specialty: Troop Transportation
Birthplace: Hartford, Connecticut
Grade: E-5
A former Olympic weight lifter, STRETCHER now utilizes his enormous strength to carry wounded G.I. Joes to safe landing zone evacuation sites. Before joining the G.I. Joe Team, Stretcher served as a front-line medic for one of NATO's roughest combat units. Although he is highly proficient in, all the latest first-aid techniques, his primary duty is the speedy delivery of injured troops to the best treatment facility in the area.
"DOC may have a medical degree from a top medical school and LIFE-LINE may be the next best thing to a real doctor, but if I'm wounded and Cobra tracers are buzzin' above my head, I'll breathe a lot easier knowing that Stretcher is coming to get me. The other two guys can patch you up fine and dandy, but Stretcher will definitely deliver you from danger, pronto!"

Filecard variation:
All 17 of the 1990 main-line figures (visible at the top of the cross-sell section on the back of every cardback, from Capt. Grid-Iron through Undertow) were also sold in 1991. 1990 filecards are gray colored, while 1991 filecards are more blue/gray colored.
Stretcher's 1990 card is gray colored and has an H-1 notation. More than likely, Stretcher's 1991 card is more blue and does not have an H-1 notation. Needs confirmation.
