Biography
Early Life
- "Tell me, Agent Krzeminski, who you are bringing to the show, your wife or your girlfriend?"
- ―Peggy Carter[src]
Ray Krzmenski was a married man, but he had women on the side.[1]
Disrespectful
Krzeminski attended the meeting that was held on the disappearance of Howard Stark and the possibility that he was a traitor. At the meeting, he questioned Peggy Carter's virtue because she knew playboy millionaire Stark and was known as Captain America's "liaison". Daniel Sousa demanded Krzeminski apologize to Carter; Krzeminski teased the veteran's handicap and left.
Krzeminski was among the agents that infiltrated La Martinique and found the body of Spider Raymond on his office's floor.[2]
Strong Man
Agent Krzeminski was tasked to take apart the imploded mass that was once the Roxxon Refinery to see if he could find any clues to how it happened. He went to Daniel Sousa for assistance. Krzeminski found the license plate of the car that Edwin Jarvis used to help Peggy Carter escape the Nitramene blast.[3]
Unwanted Shift
Kaminski begged different agents, including Yauch, if someone could switch shifts with him when he was appointed to do a night duty; there was a show he wanted to see. He even asked Peggy Carter in a demanding way, but she ignored him with bigger problems of her own.
When Krzeminsky and Sousa had a night-shift at the SSR office, they got an anonymous call that told them that all of Howard Stark's weapons that had not been sold were located on the ship called The Heartbreak. They went there, and discovered not only the weapons, but also an incapacitated Jerome Zandow. Krzeminsky was full of joy, as he hoped this would lead to him getting a promotion, but Sousa was more skeptical, as he found it odd that many cases that they had had been wrapped up before they even got there.
Nonetheless, they called Chief Roger Dooley, and waited upon his arrival. Dooley arrived with additional men, and a truck, and supervised the packing of the weapons into the truck. Krzeminsky was tasked with driving Zandow back to the office for interrogation. However, when he stopped by a traffic light, another car crashed into his car. When Krzeminsky got out of the car to complain, he was shot and killed by the other driver, who also proceeded to shoot Zandow, despite the latter's plea that he had not told anything. The hitman left the scene afterwards.[1]
Remembrance
- "He was a brute, a cheat; he was disrespectful, rude, but he was good at his job."
- ―Peggy Carter[src]
Everyone at the New York Bell Company Office was somber upon hearing of Krzeminski's death; the ladies of the New York Bell Company cried openly. Rose told Peggy Carter when she came to work.
Chief Roger Dooley held Howard Stark ultimately responsible for his death. Daniel Sousa believed the anonymous tipster was involved. Dooley volunteered to call Krzeminski's wife while Jack Thompson called his subordinate's girlfriend.
Later, Carter went to L&L Automat and told Angie Martinelli that one of her co-workers died. Martinelli listened as Carter sobbed.[1]
Daniel Sousa and Jack Thompson were the only ones who knew Krzeminski's middle name as Thompson tried to give an inspirational speech when he was in charge of the New York Bell Company while Roger Dooley was overseas.[4]
Female Assassin
Peggy Carter told Chief Roger Dooley that the gun that killed Krzeminski was small and likely wielded by a female. She told him that she believed that an assassin from the training academy from where she just returned killed the agent.[5]
