Steeler (SG)

Steeler hails from a family with blue-collar middle-class background. To get through college, he took an ROTC scholarship and operated heavy equipment machinery. When he joined the Army, he specialized in operating many armored fighting vehicles including many NATO and Warsaw Pact AFVs. Though he is recognized as a tough and dedicated soldier and an officer, he does have a tendency to clash with his superiors. Steeler is one of the strongest G.I. Joe members. His family liked to prove their worth through displays of physical contests and likes to challenge his teammates in bouts of strength and stamina.

Canonical/Pre-MUX/Theme History:
Steeler was part of Hawk's heavy support team providing heavy armor and firepower to rescue Dr. Adele Burkhart from Cobra. He was able to destroy many of Cobra's tanks before they were able to disable his MOBAT. When Cobra sent a Trojan horse robot into the Pit, Steeler was among those trapped in the canteen. To get out, they have to lift the counterweight holding the blast doors shut. As a tank operator, Steeler has the necessary strength to lift the counterweight long enough for Breaker to prop a chair to keep the door open. Afterwards, he went on a hunt for the robot and threw a can of paint in its face, leading it to fall into the hydraulic lift shaft. Steeler was in command of the MOBAT for the Armed Forces Day parade when his tank became a target for Cobra to pry its secrets. Although they didn't have any ammo, his quick thinking enabled them to bluff Cobra with an amplifier and Breaker's bubblegum blow up. A mission in Afghanistan has Steeler driving the RTV to haul out a downed spy plane. After Cobra stole the RTV from the team, Steeler seconded Scarlett's opposition to Stalker's decision for an alliance with the Oktober Guard.

After the Afghan mission, Steeler served with his trusty MOBAT as among the first line of defense against a Cobra invasion of Cape Canaveral. On a investigative mission in Alaska, he managed to destroy all but two tanks in a HISS column before his MOBAT is rendered inoperative and being injured in the process.
