Yeah, you're right. I believe Flint's filecard makes note of his having served with Duke previously. Also, in the issue with Flint's first appearance, Duke mentions that he specifically asked for Flint to be transferred back under his command.
Regarding Roadblock-- In G.I. Joe: Declassified, a nameless sergeant runs a special forces school at which Short-Fuze is a student. The sergeant is accompanied by a man who is obviously Roadblock. Coupled with the fact that Duke's filecard says he ran several special forces schools before joining the Joes, that makes me think the sergeant in the issue is supposed to be Duke. Therefore, Roadblock was apparently under Duke's command at one of the schools he ran.

Another briefly seen duo...Short-Fuze and Steeler in the MASS device miniseries.

Oh man, I can't believe I forgot that! They were teamed in the Revenge of Cobra too, guarding the Laser Core at Joe HQ. I loved those two team-ups. Good comic relief.
