Captain Canada - Origins
Last time we fucked with Canada, they burned down the White House.
That’s basically Vindicator. You can’t blame the Canucks for sacking your capitol for a laugh though - it was an early barmy army visit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burning_of_Washington

Captain Taliban too
Never watched a cap movie but would watch that movie.
Captain Vietnam aka Anh Hung
Even when the war happened before I was born it doesn't feel like "history" to me. Maybe because of all the movies that revolve around it.
Unfortunately although not in Vietnam in the majority of his comics they did the cowardly thing and avoided the subject altogether.
