Jay, think about it. Every country wants they children getting an indentification with their roots, not USA roots. So Brazil and Argentina made the Joes as we call here, be brazilians or argentinians. In Brazil at '84 we had not G. I. Joes, we had Comandos em Ação (Action Commandos). They were supposed to be a Brazilian force. It is all related, many spoke about a world "americanization" (take Rammstein - Amerika song as a reference) So Brazil wanted to get they childrens getting an identification with our military forces.
