   Summary

   Nobody cared if a 5 foot nothing, hundred pound kid was smart. It didn’t matter. Maybe people would care in the future, maybe being smart could make a poor kid into something. But not here, not now. Not in 1942.

   He couldn’t even enlist.

   Or

   Steve is distracted when Bucky falls from the train, and the Hydra soldier he hit did not die. Hydra decides to take both Bucky and Steve and attempt to use them to train each other (and create more super soldiers).
