Snake Eyes

Main article: Snake Eyes (G.I. Joe)

Snake Eyes is the G.I. Joe Team's commando. He is a ninja infantryman, and the owner of the wolf named Timber whom he saved from a bear trap. Much of his history and information, including his real name, place of birth, as well as almost everything else about him, have remained classified throughout all depictions of his origin. All that is known for certain about his military standing is his rank/grade (originally U.S. Army Sergeant/E-5 and eventually reaching Master Sergeant/E-8), he has undergone Drill Sergeant training, and is a former U.S. Army Special Forces Delta Operator. He is also the team's resident hand to hand combat instructor.

Snake Eyes was originally billed by Hasbro Toys in 1982 as a commando, but by 1984, in the pages of Marvel Comics, it became clear that he was also a full-fledged ninja master. In every version of his story, Snake Eyes is quiet in his movements and is a swift and deadly master of multiple martial arts. He is an expert in the use of the ninjatō and spike-knuckled trench knives (which he collects). He usually carries them in pairs but often uses only one. He is equally qualified with and willing to use standard weapons like firearms and explosives. Making him even more dangerous is that he rarely relies on one set of weapons to the exclusion of others. In keeping with his quiet personality, Snake Eyes usually wears what could perhaps best be described as a black "military ninja" bodysuit, along with a balaclava and visor to cover his face, which was disfigured in a helicopter explosion. Since then, Snake Eyes has had extensive plastic surgery to repair the damage to his face. He still has a few scars left, but his vocal cords cannot be repaired.

As in the comics, Snake Eyes never spoke in any media appearances. Timber's vocal effects were provided by Frank Welker in the Sunbow G.I. Joe cartoon.

Sneak Peek's primary military specialty is infantry, and his secondary military specialty is radio-telecommunications.

Sneak Peek is Ranger qualified and proficient with all NATO night vision devices.
