I'm blaming wrellek

Hell's Kitchen, Manhattan. June, 1924. Steve: Pkksssh! Baboom! C'mon boys. We're goin' over the top! Last one to the Kaiser's palace is a rotten egg! Psshhh!! Pow! Pow! Take that, you dirty Hun! Sarah Rogers: Steve? *kaff* Come up here a minute, will you, please? You want to be a soldier *kaff* like your father, don't you? Steve: Yes, mama. More than anything. Sarah: Well, I imagine that's what Joe would want. You and him, acorn and tree. *kaff* Once he got an idea lodged in his head, there was no shaking it loose either. Whatever you dream, you can be, but you're gonna have to fight for it. People are gonna spend your whole life taking one look at your body and telling you why you can't do. But they can't see like I do. It holds a heart ten times its size. You got no quit in you. Just promise your mama…you'll use your head too. Fine line between fearless and foolhardy. Took your father from us way too soon. Steve: I promise, mama. -- From Captain America: First Vengeance #1 by Fred Van Lente, art by Luke Ross
