(Hawk & Dove III #18,19) - Punch and Jewelee spoke at the Georgetown University Law and Order Symposium to promote the work of the Suicide Squad and praise the government's rehabilitation of their own criminal tendencies. When they learned Washington S.C.U. was demonstrating a force-field jacket they decided to steal it because it would make excellent protection for their future child. The Madmen also had designs on the vest, and attacked the symposium, but were opposed by Hawk and Dove. Punch took the opportunity to lift the vest, but when he put it on it caught fire, giving him severe burns. The S.C.U. reminded him that prototypes were unstable. After the Madmen's defeat Punch and Jewelee gave a TV interview playing off Punch's injuries as him being wounded in the line of patriotic duty.
