* GeniusBonus: Barracuda's abusive father is briefly mentioned as having served with the 827th Tank Destroyer Battalion. Historically, the 827th was a segregated unit that was plagued with disciplinary problems, brought about by poor garrison conditions, insufficient training, and period-era racism by its white officers towards the rank-and-file. Its mediocre performance during the Battle of the Bulge eventually resulted in the battalion being relegated to rear echelon service duties until it's disbandment when the war ended.

* CompleteMonster: [[FromCamouflageToCriminal Barracuda]], who also shows up in ''ComicBook/ThePunisherMAX'', was a [[SociopathicSoldier former Green Beret]] in Nicaragua with a penchant for executing members of the Sandinista government by [[ChainsawGood chainsaw]] after trying to [[MindRape psychologically torture]] them. Perhaps his worst act is the revelation that he assisted in the atrocities of the [[UsefulNotes/{{Nicaragua}} Contras]], entailing the wholesale rape, torture, and slaughter of several defenseless villages, adults and children alike butchered by 'Cuda, and, following this, to prove a point of how little the US uniform meant to him, 'Cuda kicked a decapitated child at Nick Fury.

* SomeAnvilsNeedToBeDropped:
** Even if you think America is a good country and a good place to live, ''so much of its power is built on the blood and dead bodies of nations and people it's attempted to destroy for profit during the Cold War, and very little of it is actually good and heroic.'' The history of this nation is a history of brutality, not one of joy, and it's one that all of us who live here need to reckon with; if you still think it's WorthIt after everything, then good for you, but that's a damn hard viewpoint to arrive at. Hatherly is the in-universe example of this anvil, being a genuinely good and kind American who happens to work for the very force committing said brutality for its own 'altruistic' interests.
** From a military perspective: ''special forces are not magic war-winners.'' Fury laments this as one of the mindsets that was responsible for the absolute disaster of the Bay of Pigs Invasion. Too many CIA men and attached US military operatives were former Rangers, commandos, and paratroopers from [=WW2=] who believed their daring secret missions and raids changed the course of the entire war. They ignored the blatant evidence that their efforts were only painful but little stab wounds to the enemy, who was really being worn down by the ordinary, often-ignored American soldiers, sailors, and airmen who did practically all the fighting and dying:
--> '''Fury:''' When in reality, the war was won by the grunt in his foxhole, sitting in a foot of water for a month. The navy gunner who keeps on firing, even when the fucking kamikaze crashes down his throat. The kid who climbs into his B-17 for one more mission, pissing his pants to Berlin and back, coming home with the co-pilot's intestines slopping in his lap.
