Wait why does Cap age but Bucky doesn’t?

Bucky ages. He just hasn’t aged much because he was frozen in cryostasis for most of his life after he became the Winter Soldier. HYDRA would thaw him out, send him on a mission, then freeze him again until the next mission. He probably only spent a short amount of time unfrozen.

Yup, it's a very clever dark riff on the expression "winter soldier" ("Winter soldier" is a reversal of Tom Paine's quote about "summertime soldiers and sunshine patriots", meaning someone who stays loyal no matter how bad things get)

(Bucky is a very literal, dark take on that idea - his WHOLE LIFE consists only of gruesome brutal assassination missions, the downtime in between - the "sunny days" of a happy life other soldiers get between battles - doesn't exist for him)
