Howling Commandos
The Howling Commandos were a combat unit lead by Steve Rogers during World War II. Although part of the U.S. Army, they primarily took their orders from the Strategic Scientific Reserve.
The unit was made up of solider primarily from the 107th Infantry, who were captured by Johann Shmidt at the Battle of Azzano, for use as slave labour and test subjects for Arnim Zola's Super-Soldier Serum, and later rescued by Steven Rogers in his first military action as Captain America.
They were one of the first de-segregated units in the modern Army.
The team continued to opperate as Irregulars for some years after the end of the war, under the leadership of Timothy "Dum Dum" Dugan, and assisted Peggy Carter in her hunt for the Red Room.
