Yeah we've all seen The Pacific, and everyone knows about the Battle of Iwo Jima, but there wasn't "a lot" of Jungle fighting in WW2 and most of it didn't involve American soldiers.

Actaully there was a lot of fighting in Jungles and a lot of it was with American soldiers. The Pacific does not even remotely cover what occurred. There was numerous other Islands and engagements that occurred. They simply are not nearly as famous, but there were many and lots of them did in fact involve American Soldiers.
There wasn't lots of Jungle fighting in WW2. There wasn't "lots" of desert conflict either. There was some. It's a matter of numbers, if you look at all the battles that happened in WW2 "lots" isn't the qualifier to accurately describe the amount of jungle conflict fought in WW2.

Slade definitely has more experience then Cap in the jungles I imagine. But I wouldn't call that area alien to Steve.
Off the top of my head in Dead Man Running Steve fought in the South American jungle.
To some WW2 adventure in the Wakanda lands in Flags of our father with TCHAKA. And the Savage land with the Dino, and freak dinos etc more then once IIRC.
Plus with Cap's incredible adaptability this still might be a very close one.

Captain America was on the front lines in France, Germany and central Europe. He wasn't in North Africa fighting Rommel either.
Originally posted by srankmissingninI know what you're technically trying to say, but "minimal" is probably the worst term you could have used.
In context of the number of armed conflicts fought during the second world war, fighting on the pacific rim was minimal.
