In the early 2000s, the Club made the Steel Brigade an international security and peacekeeping force for their Convention set. This idea stuck with me and over the years, I've added a few Steel Brigade customs to my ranks.

I started from this idea: ''The Steel Brigade is a paramilitary team that follows GI Joe into SWARM infested areas. The Steel Brigade is responsible for mopping up SWARM stragglers, securing and holding areas, law enforcement, crowd control and insuring relief efforts for the affected populations.'' I then set about creating team members that fit those roles.

One of the roles of the Steel Brigade is to provide medical support and humanitarian relief. For this, I made up Suture, a doctor. I kept the recipe simple and tried to give him a lighter uniform that the rest of the team. For the color, I added the white to differentiate him even more. Finally, I kitbashed a rescue pack for him using a Retaliation Trooper backpack and other bits and pieces to complete the look. Thanks to Raptor and GITrekker for the filecard!
