Comments: Upon becoming a Rhodes Scholar, Dashiell Faireborn found that his work in English Literature and the world of academia in general ceased to offer him the challenges he desired. He enlisted in the Army, applying the same degree of effort and resoluteness that had garnered him scholastic accolades. He graduated with honors from Ranger, Airborne, Special Forces and Flight Warrant Officers schools. Becoming a skilled field leader, he exceeded the expectations of his superiors. When his close friend Conrad "Duke" Hauser was promoted to a leadership position within the G.I. Joe Team, Duke requested him to join. Dashiell accepted and took the code name Flint. Brandishing a confidence that earned him a reputation for arrogance, Flint backs up his bravado through precise execution and his abilities as a paramount strategist.
Flint's tactical planning against the threat of Cobra has carried G.I. Joe into many victories against the snakes. Flint's peers rely on his phenomenal, over-the-top strategies as well as his ferocious demeanor in the field. His leadership abilities well tested, he has led many missions around the globe against various Cobra agents who are all too familiar with Flint. When the plan is laid in action and the battle cry is heard, Flint is on the front line pursuing Cobra with an unmatched perseverance...YO JOE!
