>> Yeah. I have Phil as having been a Ranger due to the 'Cap + Army' thing, combined with Phil's canon badassery. They seemed to be the best fit, since I wasn't considering Marines. <<
That makes sense.
>> Navy and Air Force just did NOT fit Phil at all, with *maybe* the exception of SEALs, but they have a HEAVY emphasis on water-based hijinks that just didn't work for Phil. <<
Agreed.
>> Which might be why I didn't hold the Marines as an option - from what I know of them, they do a LOT of shit on the water, or use water as an access route to beat the shit out of folks, and that just doesn't seem to fit Phil, really. <<
That part is true. But they are BAMFiest force.
>> And Air Force ... well, Phil doesn't strike me as a pilot, and other than than pilots the Air Force isn't really known for its badassery on a personal, close-quarters level. You want to bomb someone back to the stone age, that's who you go to, but when it comes to punching someone in the face ... not so much. <<

I think you're right about that too.
