Can I just step in here for a second and point out that when Steve found Bucky, he was all alone, repeating his name rank and serial number (which is what soldiers are trained to let be the only things they say under torture or interrogation) to an empty room. They’ve clearly broken him to the point where all he can do is just keep saying that over and over again. And what’s the first thing he says when he snaps out of it?
A symbol to the nation, a hero to the world. The story of Captain America is one of honor, bravery, and sacrifice. Denied enlistment due to poor health, Steven Rogers was chosen for a program unique in the annals of American warfare. One that would transform him into the world’s first super soldier.
