Mansfield brings Captain America (Sam Wilson) up to date on the Mohannda affair

Nomad works for the Office of Federal Utilities which was supposedly shut down
and that Bucky Barnes knew he was alive though Steve Rogers does not. The plane
arrives in Mohanndan airspace and they come under fire. Nomad ignores Cap’s

safety when a fleet of tanks arrives. Nomad readies himself for combat but Cap
tells him the refugees are the priority….
