In reference to:


During the Civil War, The Battle Hymn of the Republic was one of the most popularized war songs, and it remains so today. During WWII, paratroopers had a little bit of a different take on it. You don’t exactly read about the second one in history books.

This puts a whole new spin to Steve mentioning that his barbershop quartet was dead.

Bucky’s epic facepalm when he hears it for the first time, Tony’s white face when he hears it. Bruce also has gallows humor (one of his faves is “we few, we band of buggered”), and thus just laughs. Natasha is all SMH, and not sure about Phil and Clint…

Now back to your regularly scheduled head canoning…

BAHAHAHAHA Bucky facepalmed and then joined in, because he knows the harmony.  Sam just about DIED laughing but yeah, he can sing that song too, yo - it’s one of those things that have been passed on since forever.  Thor thinks it is a delightful war song and will learn it later.  Clint knows the song too and joins in.

So Steve has a new barbershop quartet and Natasha thinks they’re all ridonkulous.  

Poor, poor Tony…. it doesn’t help that Rhodey knows that song too! :P
