Nah lol the Army doesn't have the serum If nothing else this show is really owning the Pentagon, portraying them as a bunch of thumb-up-their-ass losers who haven't actually invented anything in generations and are just cannibalizing their old greatest hits

They were sitting on the idea of bringing back Captain America because they had literally no gimmick for the "new Cap" to roll out with other than a stupid patriotic costume Until Sam gave them Steve's shield back and they were like "THERE we go"
