The Howling Commandos is a World War II military commando unit led by Captain America.
The men that formed the Howling Commandos were originally prisoners of war that were held captive by HYDRA. They were liberated by Captain America on his first mission and selected by him to become a task force for the Strategic Scientific Reserve; that they would be recruited into a special elite squad under his command. Together they destroyed many HYDRA bases and kidnapped HYDRA's top scientist Arnim Zola. They then participated in attacking Johann Schmidt's last HYDRA base along with other US forces. After Barnes' and Cap's disappearance, the 5 members mourned for his loss. Their fates after WW2 are currently unknown, presumed to have died or retired from military service.
Barnes, along with the rest of the Howling Commandos; were alluded to when Rogers states he knew men with none of Tony Stark's privelage that were ten times his worth. While working out in the gym in the present, Steve Rogers thinks back to his war adventures in which footage of Dugan could be seen. In a deleted scene Steve can be seen viewing files on Morita and Falsworth which both label "deceased".
