It's Profile Time Again! *Crowd hoots, hollers, cheers, chants, claps, and screams* This time, we look at a GI Joe who is the proudest, loudest member of the Marine Corps, a Joe who is never afraid to fight, Gung-Ho!
Gung-Ho
Real Name: Ettienne R. LaFitte
Affiliation: Marine Corps
Rank: Sergeant Major
Primary Military Specialty: Recondo
Secondary Military Specialty: Jungle Warfare Training Instructor, Heavy Weapons
Birthplace: Fer-de-Lance, Louisiana
Bio: Born into a big Cajun clan in the bayou, Gung-Ho established a reputation as an infamous knife-fighter and brawler in New Orleans. One of his sisters was a child model.
At the age of 18, Gung-Ho joined the Marines, where he graduated at the top of his class from the infamous Marine training boot camp at Parris Island. He also trained at Recondo School, Airborne School, and Marine Ordinance School.
When he joined the G.I. Joe team, Gung-Ho quickly established himself as one of the team's toughest fighters, as well as their craziest! He often charges into battle bare-chested so he can show the enemy that he is a proud Marine, and that he doesn't fear going down fighting.
He possesses great physical strength, allowing him to take on one of Magneto's mutant Acolytes, a ram-like mutant known as Ramrod.
Note: Do not, under any circumstances whatsoever, let him talk anyone into trying his family gumbo soup recipe. It's been known to put people in the hospital for severe burns!

(Central Park, New York City)
Four teenagers sat in a park having lunch in a beautiful Saturday afternoon in New York City's vast Central Park. One of them was a red-haired girl clad in a yellow t-shirt. The second was a blond boy clad in a black t-shirt with flames on it and matching slacks. The third was a boy with a long brown mullet, clad in a black t-shirt and fingerless gloves, torn blue jeans, and a brown cowboy jacket. The fourth was a boy dressed in a KISS t-shirt with purple acid-washed jeans, numerous bracelets on each wrist and purple fringe gloves, possessing long black hair and a birthmark of a five-pointed star over his right eye. The redhead was named Angelica Jones, a mutant codenamed Firestar for her ability to generate microwave energy, which she could use to fly and create heat beams. The blond boy was an Australian mutant named St. John Allerdyce, codenamed Pyro for his power to psionically manipulate flame. The black-haired boy in the 80s-rocker gear was Paul Stanley Starr, codenamed Starchild for his hypnotic powers and the ability to fire a purple laser beam from his right eye, as well as his incredible charm. The brown-haired boy was Lance Alvers, codenamed Avalanche for his geokinetic abilities. These four kids were members of the East Coast Misfits, a team of young mutants based in Florida trained by GI Joe to use their powers to help people.
"John, glance at me one more time, and I will beat you so hard, your blood will flow all over the city!" Angelica snapped at John. John was an insane pyrokinetic, and he developed a crush on Angelica because her powers can cause flame.
"But Fire Angel, I just wanted to OW!!" Pyro whimpered. Angelica hit him with the picnic basket. After the battle against Cobra-La in the Himalayas, the Misfits of both coasts were allowed some time to rest. They did deserve it, and several of them were wounded in the line of duty. Pyro was on that list, thanks to an arm injury he suffered. It was minor.
John, you should ask for my help. I did wonders for Kurt, and for Todd. Paul thought.
"John, knock it off. You know Angelica doesn't like you." Lance groaned.
"Oh yeah? What about that thing between you and Kitty?" John snickered. "I mean, c'mon! Didn't Peter take her out last night?"
"Yeah, the low-down, no good son of a…" Lance muttered curses under his breath. "Taking advantage of my hospital stay." Lance had to stay in the hospital due to his…medical problem.
"C'mon, Lance! Even Paul, King of Oblivious, notices that Kitty's stringing you both along! Pietro is constantly trying to get you and me together!" Angelica moaned.
"Huh?" Paul blinked. He really wasn't listening. Pyro glared at Lance.
"Relax John, I don't like Angelica in that way. Besides, all of Pietro's attempts keep exploding in his face! Like that one time…" Lance smirked. Pyro laughed.
"I remember that, mate! Pietro wrote the letter wrong, and he ended up getting these e-mails from a construction worker that looked more like Tommy Lee than Pam Anderson! It was bloody hilarious! It was all apples in the end though. We tricked Beach Head into the date." John grinned.
"I remember that!" Paul grinned. "Poor Pietro. I tried to warn him, but he didn't listen!"
"You know Pietro. Mr. I-don't-make-mistakes." Angelica chuckled. "He tried to hit on me too."
"Angie, maybe you and I should just go out for dinner." John grinned, wiggling his eyebrows. "We are staying at the Hilton."
"Yeah. Thanks, Paul. Who knew you knew the Hilton family?" Lance laughed.
"Pen-pals." Paul shrugged. "Not that long, actually." He then heard something. Screaming. "What? Guys, you hear that?" The screaming got louder.
"Yeah." Lance and the others got up. "Guys, I think this situation calls for some mutant power!" Lance, Paul, Angelica, and John pressed buttons on their watches and their clothes glowed. In an instant, they were clad in their Misfit costumes. Pyro's flamethrower appeared on his back. The Misfits called it 'Quick-Change', a process created by Trinity based on teleportation that allowed the Misfits to change into their costumes in an instant. Lance took the lead because we was the eldest (Pyro was around 17-18, but Lance was way more mature)
"Okay, folks! Let's rock!" Lance said. They stopped when they saw a kid with brown hair fly by at great speed, clad in a blue-and-white costume with a blue cape and yellow star on the chest. He was surrounded by a reddish energy field. His eyes glowed the same color.
"Who was that?!" Paul wondered.
Well, another Saturday afternoon for some of the members of the East Coast Misfits starts with a bang! What madness will happen next? Who was that flying kid? What's causing people to scream? Will Pyro ever win Angelica? Find out in the next chapter! Suggestions needed badly!
