James Buchanan Barnes, called Bucky, is a fictional character from Marvel’s comics and movies. Bucky Barnes was born on March 10, 1917, in Brooklyn, NY. He spent his entire childhood at his
best friend’s side, Steve Rogers, who would later become Captain America. In 1942, he was drafted into the US Army. A few years later, he fell off a
train into a ravine during a mission and was presumed dead. In 2015, during Captain America: Winter
Soldier, Bucky is revealed to be alive. He had been captured by the evil organization HYDRA and brainwashed to do their bidding, becoming a puppet of violence called The Winter
Soldier. Luckily, Steve Rogers was able to help him escape HYDRA’s physical and mental bonds, and, eventually, Bucky was able to go back to living as a healthy and functioning part of society.
