Sam Sawyer was assigned to the British Commandos by the U.S. Army. He trained for parachuting in Britain in 1940 with Finley's Flying Circus, alongside daredevil parachutist Nick Fury and pilot Red Hargroves. They gave him the nickname "Happy Sam" because of his serious and consistently stony demeanor. In 1942, Sawyer, who had been wounded in North Africa and was deemed unfit for combat missions, organized and led the Howling Commandos, Bull McGiveney's Maulers, Jim Morita's Nisei Squad, and Sgt.

In modern times, Baron Strucker creates a Life Model Decoy (LMD) based on Sawyer who attacks the original Howling Commandos as well as Captain America. Sawyer sacrifices himself to stop the LMD after it self-destructs while trying to gain missile navigation override codes.
