Cover Girl

Cover Girl is a fictional character from the G.I. Joe A Real American Hero toyline, comic books and cartoon series. She is a tank jockey for the G.I. Joe Team, specializing in the Wolverine missile tank, and debuted in 1983.
==Origin==
Cover Girl was a beautiful and famous model who wanted to be "more than a pretty face". She decided to join the Army to find a new direction and decided to master the un-feminine discipline of Armored Fighting Vehicle Operation and Repair.Proving to be a quick-study and a dedicated student, it wasn't long before she was an Instructor herself.
Honored to be only the second woman Selected for the elite G.I.JoeTeam, Cover Girl quickly proved herself in action against Cobra H.I.S.S. tanks in a night action in Washington D.C.
Cover Girl excels at combat both vehicular and personal,and has mastered many weapons. She is also a skilled under-cover operative and has helped train new members of the G.I.Joe Team. Her grace,beauty,intelligence,and ability reduce most men to slack-jawed awe.
Cover Girl first joined the Team in a combat exercise,as most of the regular Joes were practicing Anti-Armor Combat on the firing range, Team C.O. Hawk sent Cover Girl and her "Wolverine" Missile Launcher Tank in against the Remote control targets. Acquitting herself well, Cover Girl did get a bit "catty" with Scarlett, suggesting that she herself would "Hold up better in battle than your face has, dearie".
Soon, Cover Girl was sent on her first mission. Cobra threatened a full-scale attack on Washington,D.C., forcing Army General Flagg to call almost every Army unit in Virginiaand Maryland to defend the Capitol. GI Joe Leader Hawk had evidence that suggested Cobra's true target was the Treasury Building. General Flagg allowed Hawk to deploy the GI Joe Team to defend the Treasury, knowing the small unit (at that particular time in the Joe's history) would face long odds against the might of Cobra if Hawk was correct.
The Joes were spread out to cover the Treasury. Rock 'n Roll (the Machine gunner) and Bazooka Soldier Zap were placed on the roof, with Team Members Gung-Ho, Tripwire and Torpedo inside. Cover Girl's Wolverine Tank was disguised as a Garbage Truck to keep some heavy firepower close to hand.
