Profile
His real name is Robert W. Graves, and his rank is that of corporal E-4. Grunt was born in Columbus, Ohio.
He graduated from Advanced Infantry Training in the top ten of his class. Grunt's primary military specialty is infantry and his secondary military specialties are as a small-arms armorer as well as being an artillery coordinator. He is familiar with all NATO and Warsaw Pact small arms, as well as domestic civilian arms, and is a qualified expert with the M-14, M-16, and the M-1911A1 auto pistol.
Grunt eventually left the G.I. Joe Team, to get his engineering degree at the Georgia Institute of Technology. There he met a girl named Lola, who he later married, and the two have a young daughter together. The file card that came with the 1991 figure followed this storyline, but differed in continuity by having him come back to the team.

“Nature centres into balls,
And her proud ephemerals,
Fast to surface and outside,
Scan the profile of the sphere;
Knew they what that signified,
A new genesis were here.”

Wears its soul like a hat....”
