Old GI Joe Dios

The Joes thought they were safe to go on vacation, but they were wrong, dead wrong

The Joe recon team makes it back to their main defence line and prepare for the upcoming onslaught.

Night falls on the small town and Cobra moves in another unit by ship.

The Joes are doing some recon on an upcoming Cobra Attack

The Cobra's call in some air support to help them defeat the Joes.

The Joes hold their own against the Cobra attack

The recon mission went horribly wrong and now the Joes are on the run with Cobra forces close behind them.

With casualties on both sides, the Cobra attack starts to stall, but are their enough Joes to hold the line?

The battle may be won, but some of the Joes aren't satisfied letting Cobra off so easy.
