John Fitzgerald Kennedy, usually abbreviated to JFK, is a playable character from Call of Duty: Black Ops. He was the 35th President of the United States of America in the years 1961-1963. In the mission “Pentagon” he speaks personally with Alex Mason. His username on the CIA computer is: JFKENNEDY, and his password is: LANCER.
In the mission “Pentagon” Alex Mason shoots Kennedy, but this happens only in his head. Kennedy is also playable in “Five” a survival map. There he has a conversation with Fidel Castro, Richard Nixon and Robert McNamara but zombies interrupt the conversation. When you play through Call of Duty: Black Ops, there is a video of John F. Kennedy being shot, but before that the camera zooms in on a man who looks like Alex Mason. Most likely this is to hint at Dragovich’s plan for Mason, which he was “programmed” to do in Workuta. It could also mean that Alex Mason shot Kennedy. Reznov, however, was able to break through the brainwashing, and “memorize” a new order to kill Dragovich, Kravchenko and Steiner. However, it is not known whether he did not keep the order to kill Kennedy in the back of his mind.
