The official Call of Duty website reports on the bio's of the soldiers featured in the new Zombie Shi No Numa content from Map Pack 2

You're not going to believe this.

Recon has picked up some very strange information. Until recently, I would have marked this zombie infestation as the most twisted turn of events our boys have yet encountered. However, it turns out that the men themselves are about as unlikely a group as the zombies attacking them.
