History: (Marvel Mystery Comics #29) Mary Morgan was present when the Patriot thwarted a German plot to sabotage a shipyard.

(Marvel Mystery Comics #50) Taken captive by Dr.Groitzig and Signore Scharrolla, Mary Morgan was used as a test subject for their super-soldier serum. This backfired for the villains, as it worked all too well and she gained superhuman senses. Inspired by the Patriot, whom she had often encountered, she created the identity of Miss Patriot.

Comments: Mary never actually called herself Miss Patriot, though the text of the story did. Although there was the stated intention of her being the Patriot's new sidekick, by the next issue of Marvel Mystery Comics she seemed to have lost her powers, and her costumed identity was not seen again.
