Creating a Mode + Medal of Honor Recipient Kyle Carpenter | COD POD Ep. 13
Q: For those who don't know your story, many Cod fans may be unaware. Would you be willing to share that?
Carpenter recounts being seriously wounded by a grenade while serving in Afghanistan, waking up at Walter Reed after weeks in a coma, and facing years of hospitalization and many reconstructive surgeries. He set incremental recovery goals, eventually hoping to run a marathon.
Barry Sloane & María Elisa Camargo Bring MW4’s Price and Valeria Garza to Life | COD POD Ep 12
Q: What was the most demanding aspect of playing John Price, and what did you have to wrestle with?
