Epionage
Duncan is still learning the ropes as a SHIELD agent, while he has been an adept learner so far he is still new to the spy game and at times this shows.
Leadership
Duncan was an officer in the SEALs, as such he received extensive training on leading troops on mission and after that trainign he did lead teams on many mission in fact it was his accomplishments on these missions that brought him to the attention of SHIELD.
Athletics
Duncan was a natural athlete he honed this when he was in high school playing both football and basketball. Once he entered the service this training was extended to running and climbing, in most activities that require phyichal excetion he abilities are well above those of the average person though still below those who are at human peak levels.
Demolitions
One of the things SEALs are known for is their skill in demolitions, when it comes to using explosives to breach fortifications or to take down an obstacle there are few better to call than a former SEAL like Duncan.
Marksmanship
Duncan is an excellent shot with automatic weapons, rifes, and handguns. He leanred this skill while he was in the military and both his time in the service and his current activities with SHIELD have given him enough practise to stay in top form.
Hand to Hand
Just as the Army taught him how to use a gun, it also taught him how to fight with out him, both unarmed and with a knife.
Swimming and Diving
The one thing SEALs are most know for are they underwater activities and Duncan is no exception, he is a master swimmer and has been very well trained in both unassisted and SCUBA diving and in fighting while underwater.
Survival Skills
Second only to their underwater training the other main point of emphasis for SEALs is being able to surivive cut off from support. Duncan has been taught to live off the land, to avoid and lose enemies hunting him, and to withstand the worst that mother nature can throw at him.
Service Buddies
Duncan spent eight years in the service and during that time he made a fair number of firends. Most of those firends has mustered out and have returned to normal life, however they are likely to respond favorably if Duncan is near by and in nead of aid.
Intelligence Resource
Since joining SHIELD like any good agent Duncan has started building his own network of informants and information sources since he is still pretty new on the job this networks is not as big as that of many agents but still comes in handy.
SHIELD Gear
As an agent of SHIELD, Duncan has access to all those wonderful toys, though there are of course limitations on what he can get and where he can get it from, he is still a new agent so nothign unique or especially valuable is going to be given to him.
Authority
As an agent of SHIELD, Duncan has legal power and responsibilites most people do not have. He can make arrests and access offical documents that the public is often restricted from viewing. Also if in a nation with a government friendly to SHIELD he can get assistance from the local authorities.
Guilt
Like any who have been in the service Duncan has seen fellow soldiers die in combat, this has taken a toll on him and he has developed surviviors guilt, at times he wonders why he made it out and the others did not. to this end he is often more concerned with protecting those he is fighting alongside than the mission, while concern for comrades is not bad thing the extent he takes it to can get him into trouble out in the field.
Subject To Orders
The downside to the having the authority that comes with being a SHIELD agent is that as an agent his activities are monitored and he is subject to the orders of the organization, this orders can be received at anytime and wihtout notice so even when he is offically off duty is life is never completely his own.
