 DEPTH CHARGE. The code name used by U.S. Navy Petty Officer Nick H. Langdon, from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Depth Charge was one of the reinstated G.I. Joe team's "greenshirt" recruits. He eventually worked his way to a regular spot on the team, becoming a full-fledged Joe shortly after the team's battle against the forces of a revived Sepentor on Cobra Island. As part of the Navy UDT (underwater demoltions team), Depth Charge has a working knowledge of various explosives and is SCUBA and Airborne qualified. He has some of the highest ratings in all these skills that the program has ever recorded. While Depth Charge loves his demolitions work, he hates being in the water, but does so to do everything else about UDT he loves. In addition to his military skills, Depth Charge is a musician who plays the glockenspiel. After the Joes stopped a plot by Cobra to unleash the weapon known as the Tempest, and defeated a new threat, the Red Shadows, the military again disbanded the team. One year later, the Joe team was reformed with a smaller roster of active members. Depth Charge, like most former Joes, is a reserve member of the new team. During the conflict known as World War III, he served onboard the U.S.S. Flagg aircraft carrier.

One of many Joes listed on the World War III member assignment map first seen in AE #28.
