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 LIFELINE 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!"
