They tried to handwave how "normal" Walker was pre-serum, they have the whole thing about how he's such an accomplished soldier that MIT scientists wanted to study his body because he's the absolute peak of human performance etc

Kinda funny that if you take Agents of SHIELD as canon that somebody must have considered giving John Walker the Project Patriot treatment that created Jeffrey Mace and somebody just said "nah we don't remember who was in charge of that"

You'd think they'd have at least gotten him an iron man suit, they had plenty of them.

I still can’t get over that Sam Wilson’s whole wings thing is just normal military hardware. How is that not just a slightly higher tech version of Black Widow or Hawkeye

The Falcon suit he has as an Avenger is implied to be Stark-upgraded tech that is way, way more expensive than the one he had when he was just one guy in a unit of wingsuit guys

The one in Winter Soldier gets its wing shot off by regular gunfire while the Avenger one is specifically bulletproof (and he can use the wings as a shield)

yeah they say the falcon program was discontinued cause it proved too weak to gunfire and all the falcons died

Right, and rather than carry a grudge about this horrific waste of taxpayer dollars and human lives Sam just moved on to being a PTSD counselor, until the day Steve Rogers called him out of retirement for one last job

It's a shame that they kind of let the details from past movies fall by the wayside over time because honestly Sam's own military past should resonate with what happened to Isaiah, and even what happened to John The military is just very free and easy with using people up

Well, supposedly Pararescue guys' training is extremely demanding and they're supposed to be an extremely high-prestige course?

Like, Sam by being a Pararescue vet is already an ABSURDLY competent dude even before he hits the comic books tech.
