Captain America in Four Levels?
Is it possible to do a basic shield-throwing, justice-dealing Captain America with just four levels?
I know his stats won't be stellar at fourth level, and he won't be Golarion's best fighter, but can he at least hold his own in a fight using only a shield? Available sources include the CRB, APG, the Ultimates and the Player Companions; no 3P, psionics or Unchained material.
Given this, can it be done?

Shield Champion brawler. You hit things with a shield, and you punch things. Possibly mix Mutagenic Mauler for the super-soldier aspect, but with a shield champion, I might want the extra feats. Make the shield out of Adamantine if you can.

If you can get Occult Origins, consider the Mind Sword paladin. Maybe that for a shield oriented build?

If you keep Martial Versatility, focus on feats which open up prerequisite trees.
Power Attack
Point Blank Shot
Dirty Fighting
Shield Slam
And I'd probably use some combination of Tripping, Dirty Tricks, and Bull rush on this guy.

Re: Captain America in Four Levels?
Agreed that Brawler is probably the top choice.
If you had a few more levels to work with, then 6 levels of Ranger might be handy for that sweet, sweet Shield Master feat (bonus at level 6).
Of course, 2 levels of Ranger can always get you some Bull Rush goodness by way of Shield Slam.

Re: Captain America in Four Levels?
Was my first idea as well, but he said no 3p, so thats off the table as well.
