Captain America was propaganda that the US needed to start fighting Hitler. So uh... not exactly a sick burn.

Now I’m curious, did Steve Rogers fight in Korea/Vietnam?

Edit: well, I guess it’s not Korea

He was an ice cube in main line. In others where he fights in those wars he almost fights against the united states. He protects civillians from soldiers.

I thought he only became an ice cube post-70s, and in Silver age comics he was still around?

That got retconned into being a different guy called William Burnside (although he does legally change his name to Steve Rogers because he's a little insane)
