Towards the end of the war, he jumped onto a Nazi drone plane, and when the plane exploded, Cap was thrown into icy Arctic waters, where he was frozen for years until he was rescued by the Avengers. Despite being the weakest member, Cap quickly became the leader of the team. His leadership has guided the Avengers through many incarnations, the rock they all look up to.
