[It's definitely not Army - more Captain America, honestly, because Steve's happy to stand solely on the protocol they both recognize... but this guy looks like he could use a friend.
And Steve's all the more decided when he mentions Peleliu; his face doesn't show shock so much as respect, because he learned more about it after the fact, but what he did learn is pretty awful.] Right in the worst of it.
I was in Europe. [Which he assumes the Private will assume, given Steve's Army - and he also knows Sledge will assume it was right before he made his deal, and not seventy years ago, but he figures that can wait. The guy's probably had enough dumped in his lap at the moment.
Although if there's one thing Steve doesn't care about, it's shaking a hand that's dirty, and he shows it - his grip is firm.] You need some water? And maybe someplace a little warmer. [Don't worry, he'll suggest a shower, too.]
