Greenshirts were alerted to an aerial assault by Cobra and quickly defended the G.I. Joe base as best they could. Sadly, many Skystrikers were still destroyed. The Greenshirts get some satisfaction when the Joe Team investigated Dr. Vandermeer regarding Cobra's ability to teleport and end up rescuing the scientist. Greenshirts joined in the action to board the Cobra heli-carrier over the Ring of Fire. More took part in the uphill battle to storm the Cobra Temple in the mountains.

Trivia

• The Greenshirts are named after the Redshirts in Star Trek. A red shirt was the uniform of security officers who had minor or non-speaking roles in landing parties and usually got killed to establish the threat level. Consequently the term "Redshirt" has become a cultural term for expendable background characters.
