So this is the Big Bang fanmix that would not be.
It's about Captain America and the Howling Commandos during the war where they blew up Hydra factories and fought Nazis and got drunk and rowdy in bars while bonding over everything and teasing Steve about his crush on Peggy. Because one of my favorite parts of that movie was the Commandos and their awesomeness. And I know that racial integration in military units happened years after the war ended, but I was still happy to see these guys fight and banter and generally be heroes alongside Captain America.
I kind of hope this mix reflects that.
Zip file, but no graphics included because if I have to re-zip this thing one more time, I'm gonna scream. Millions of kisses to Jen for giving me detailed feedback on this thing and holding my hand while I freaked myself out for no good reason. Sigh.
I hope this is enjoyable!
