Captain America life at war.

Chapter nine

Decades later, my wartime comrade, the Sub-Mariner, stumbled across my still-frozen form, which was being worshiped by a far-flung Inuit tribe. Enraged, the Sub-Mariner threw the ice block into the ocean. While opposing Namor, the newly formed Avengers happened upon My thawing body and soon revived me. I joined their ranks as the first recruit, since their formation, and was given retroactive "founding member" status in place of Hulk. With my superhuman abilities, extensive training, combat experience, combined with his impressive physique, confidence, and will, I was an excellent addition to the team. As a born leader, I would come to be seen as the heart and soul of the team and my commands, while in the field, were often followed regardless of who might have been team leader at the time. I would teach teamwork, tactics, and hand-to-hand combat to many Avengers over the coming years.
