Zack Johnson

"I'm Army Specialist Zack Johnson, our APO here is 96309."

- Zack Johnson

Army Specialist Zack Johnson is a character who is never seen but is heard in the mission S.O.G. on Call of Duty: Black Ops.

S.O.G.
When the mission starts, players hears Zack Johnson speaking on the radio which is most likely transmitted over loudspeakers around the base. As Mason and Hudson are about to meet Woods when he lands, Johnson then plays the song Fortunate Son by Creedence Clearwater Revival. This same song plays at the end of the mission as Bowman arrives.

Trivia

 * He refers to Creedence Clearwater Revival as 'CCR'. He says this at the end of his speech.
 * The song Johnson plays on the radio is anachronistic. The mission S.O.G. takes place during the Battle of Khe Sanh in January 1968 a year before the song was actually released (September 1969).
 * Fortunate Song has also been used in the Vietnam War-era games Battlefield: Vietnam and Battlefield: Bad Company 2: Vietnam and movies Forrest Gump and Tropic Thunder

Speech
"This is the psychedelic music show at AFVN. I'm Army Specialist Zack Johnson, our APO here is 96309.  If you send a request to that number, what we do is we open it like this (opens letter)...and when it arrives we read it, pull out that record and play it on the air (starts playing the song).  Like this one; 'Fortunate Son' by CCR."
