G.I. Joe: Retaliation

Storm Shadow kills Zartan and avenges his master's death. Cobra Commander escapes after the Joes arrive at the summit of world leaders. Roadblock (Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson) kills Firefly (Ray Stevenson) and stops the Zeus satellite weapons system before it destroys another major city. The Joes' name is cleared by the real President of the United States (Jonathan Pryce) and they receive medals from General Colton; the Joes were framed for killing the president of Pakistan and betraying their country. Colton gives to Roadblock a gun that belonged to General Patton; and Colton tells him that if he needs help again, all he needs to do is contact him.

Anti-Monitor

Factual error: In the beginning scene, Roadblock melts through the fence using some high tech gloves. The design and application of these gloves make no sense realistically. For one, the gloves are open fingered, thus causing great risk to Roadblock of even just a melted metal drip with a slight breeze. The intense heat, even if directed down towards the fence metal, would still be enough, if able to melt through metal in an instant, to burn his fingers as well, even from behind. It would be much safer, much easier, and much more practical to have the same type of device as an external stick or long object, or even an extension of a gun, keeping the hands out of harm's way.

Question: General Joe says he wants some of his own men in the mission. You see them when they are making the plan and the are other old men. They don't really do much if anything during the actual battle. Who are they?
