History
Bucky Barnes' Training
Bucky Barnes, having enlisted the United States Armed Forces shortly after the attack on Pearl Harbor, spent a whole winter training at Camp McCoy in Wisconsin. As he quickly achieved the rank of Sergeant, he and the rest of the 107th Infantry Regiment were shipped out to Europe, ending up at the Italian front.[1]
Captain America's USO Shows
Steve Rogers was chosen as the new public hero of World War II due to his heroic persecution of Heinz Kruger in the streets of New York City. The event became a front page in the newspapers, and Senator Brandt realized he had potential as a public symbol to boost the morale of the nation, and promote the purchasing of War Bonds.
Rogers joined the USO and began touring the nation in a colorful costume as "Captain America", accompanied by a chorus named the Star Spangled Singers, Milwaukee being one of the many cities visited.
Rogers' shows included Rogers' speech about the role of the common citizen during the war, a dancing show by the Star Spangled Singers, feats showing Rogers' strength, a climatic moment when Captain America punched another actor portraying Adolf Hitler and the possibility of getting an autograph or a photo with Captain America.
Rogers' success during these shows led to the promotional movies and comics about "Captain America"'s adventures during World War II.[2]
Birth of Phil Coulson
On July 8, 1964 two of Manitowoc citizens, Robert Coulson, a history professor at the local high school and the coach of the schools football team, the Manitowoc Outlaws, and his wife Julie Coulson had a son: Phil Coulson.[3]
