Project Rebirth
Camp Lehigh was established in 1914 as a US military base. By 1942, it served as the training facility for the candidates of Project Rebirth under General Chester Phillips

Dr. Abraham Erskine, creator of the super-soldier serum found a young Steve Rogers, who was brought to the camp as Erskine's primary candidate, although everyone realized that he didn't match with the rest of the candidates. Though during one training exercise, Steve outsmarts every trainee and is rewarded a ride back on Peggy's military jeep. Despite being the smallest and weakest of his platoon, Dr. Erskine sees something special about him and tells General Chester Phillips that Rogers is a suitable candidate.

During an exercise, Phillips is unconvinced by Erskine's claims that Rogers is the right person for the procedure and preferred Private Gilmore Hodge instead. He tests the recruits by throwing a grenade in the middle of the field. The rest of them take cover while Rogers commits an act of self-sacrificing bravery by covering the grenade with his own body. After seeing this, General Phillips finally but reluctantly agrees with Dr. Erskine.
