Gordon (World at War)

Major Gordon is the commanding officer in the American campaign of Call of Duty: World at War.

He is first mentioned in "Little Resistance", and is first heard in the level "Black Cats" talking to Booth over the radio (sometimes the player will notice Roebuck talking to Major Gordon over the radio during cutscenes and/or missions, but he will not hear Gordon's replies to Roebuck's words). He is then seen at the end of "Blowtorch & Corkscrew" talking with Polonsky. Oddly, he wears sunglasses at night. He nonchalantly tells Polonsky that Shuri Castle is deserted, before he leaves in the truck carrying the wounded. It is possible, due to the tone of his voice, he could have been suffering from battle fatigue.

Trivia
He is the only Major in world at war
 * He uses the same sunglasses that the player gets when the use the Shades perk on multiplayer.
 * He looks just like Jason Hudson from Black Ops, so there is a chance that his character model was simply reused and given new clothing.
 * Under his name, its says Gordon is a Submachine Gunner, which is odd because you never see him in combat.
 * Major Gordon is either the CO of the Battalion that Roebucks squad is in or is the operations officer of players Regiment; the later seems more likely since he is said to stopped further beach landing during Relentless and is the person that the crew of Mantaray gets authorization to engage from.
 * In the opening cutscene before "Blowtorch & Corkscrew," Major Gordon's line is incorrectly labeled as Roebuck's.
 * His sunglasses may be a reference to famous pacific commander, Douglas MacArthur.
 * Gordon has NCO Chevrons on his shoulder.
