Checkpoint a fifth generation career solider “A military officer” who grew up in Alabama. His father (referencing to the G.I.Joe character Wayne R. “Beachhead” Sneeden who Served with a stop-secret and anti-terrorist unit during the 80’s and 90’s). In keeping with family tradition to the inter-service L.I.U where he specialized in the “armed interdiction of illicit ordnance transport across state lines. In order words he ambushed gun runners. 

He did such a good job that he made a certain Federal agency look bad. His talent for apprehending law breakers did not go unnoticed. The top brass thought that the country’s civilian law enforcement agencies could use some military support. AS a result, they placed Checkpoint on special duty with the Cops.

So, without further adieu, enjoy The Case of Mukluk’s Luck!

COPS File #160042. Checkpoint teams up with Inspector Yukon to capture a tricky Canadian thief named MukLuk who has arrived in Empire City. He even steals the BlackJack Trophy Big Boss won in “The Case of the Crime Convention” and prompts the Boss to send Bullit and Rock Krusher to head to MukLuk’s Arctic hideout and reclaim the trophy — only for all their luck to run out and for the trophy to land at the paws of a polar bear.
