"Carry the flag shore to shore for America, from Hoboken to Spokane."
Star Spangled Singers[src]

Hoboken is a city in the state of New Jersey.

History[]

Captain America's USO Shows[]

Steve Rogers was chosen as the new public hero of World War II due to his heroic persecution of Heinz Kruger in the streets of New York City. The event became a front page in the newspapers, and Senator Brandt realized he had potential as a public symbol to boost the morale of the nation, and promote the purchasing of War Bonds.

Rogers joined the USO and began touring the nation in a colorful costume as "Captain America", accompanied by a chorus named the Star Spangled Singers, who sang a song praising his qualities and heroic feats. As such, during the song, the city of Hoboken was named, to represent the East Coast of the United States.[1]

Affair[]

"I'm off risking my neck, serving my country, she cheats on me with some jerk from Hoboken."
Roger Dooley[src]

A plumber from Hoboken was called by Loretta Dooley while her husband Roger was fighting overseas during World War II. Loretta and the plumber started an affair, and Roger found it out when he returned home, distancing himself from his wife and referring to the man as a "jerk from Hoboken".[2]

Car Disposal[]

"You did dispose of the old car?"
"I left it in Hoboken with the keys in the ignition. I don't imagine it's still there."
Peggy Carter and Edwin Jarvis[src]

Edwin Jarvis received a call from Peggy Carter at his private residence and ordered him to dispose of the car they used to travel to the Roxxon Refinery, as the car sustained damage and would surely have been contaminated with Vita Radiation, and could incriminate them or Howard Stark in the destruction of the facility.

Jarvis, surprised at first for the request, traveled to Hoboken and left the car with the keys in the ignition, to make sure that the car got stolen.[3]
