I wonder if that would be appropriate, because that's actual work I've done with real characters from real shows.
What do you think?

As far as I am concerned, anything that you have voiced is fair game in a demo as long as it is good. If it is something that was actually used in a show then it is completely legit. It maybe a bit costly to keep editing your demo though. However, with your experience there is no reason not to add the roles to your demo. Its all part of your marketing. Don't be shy about what you have voiced even if it was "Soldier A".
I also highly suggest you get that resume completed to help market yourself.
As far as the Commercial thing is concerned, I am in the same boat. Just don't let it get you down and keep at it. The more you audition the more practice you get and the better you will become. You'll get there eventually. You have a young sounding voice with nice texture and you should play up to that. Just listen to what is playing on the Radio and TV to get an idea of what kind of reads book gigs and where your voice fits in. And, try to get your name and work in front of anyone that is in the position to hire
VO talent; keep marketing yourself. But, before doing so, follow Bob's suggestion and work on the Commercial demo. Also, give Eric a call just to get an idea what your options are.
Good luck.
