There's a war going on, and Captain America isn't fighting it.

Every day, Steve Rogers comes back from his morning 13-mile run, heads out to a local breakfast nook and tries to absorb as much as he can about what's going on over in Afghanistan... and he's gotten to the point where he's amazed at how much effort it takes to do that. 24 hours a day of news media, plus the internet, and still, the airtime gets filled with yellow journalism of the worst kind.

That old familiar sense of duty is certainly calling him overseas, but there's still so much he doesn't know about the entire Middle East situation, and the goals are so unclear. Nation-building? Terror fighting? How did they declare war on an emotion? There's just so much to catch up on, and Fury's kept him way too busy playing clean-up on ops gone wrong to really devote the necessary time to the study.

In fact, just as he's finding some news out of Kandahar, he's expecting to get called in. Almost eerie that it happens like that so often.

He's a spy. Captain, he's THE spy. His secrets have secrets.

Trust is so hard to come by in the 21st century. That's one thing he misses.
