[OOM: Howard Stark]

London, 1943

Downtime is both precious and rare when you're in an elite military force. Steve spends it at Milliways when he can, and at the pub that's become their local when he wants to stay in London.

(Which he often does, despite the air raids and curfews. He's come to love this dark, sprawling city. It's not New York, but it'll do until it's time to go home.)

So Steve is having a drink and smiling at the singing. Another thing to like about the English--no matter what, they keep on singing.

There enters a man in a suit that probably cost more than most in the pub made in the last year. And a brunette in a dress that probably costs more than a typical tank. War or not, style endures.

The two go to the bar, trying to talk despite the singing. The man hasn't spotted any friends yet, but he knows this is where the "Howling Commandos" - Duggan's nickname - take their leave.
