(Secret Avengers v1 #9) During a transport to the border, the Nazi convoy was ambushed by American special operatives Red Hargrove and Nick Fury who retrieved Professor Erskine for the Allied effort. (Marvels Project v1 #2) His completion of the Super-Soldier Serum for Project: Rebirth led to Nazi agent Heinz Kruger being dispatched to eliminate Erskine where he succeeded in killing the professor stopping the Americans from mass producing Erskine's formula though the program did transform Steve Rogers into Captain America.
