An LA casting call for Call of Duty-related “voice over/motion capture” for an Activision “video game” has described character Frank Barnes as being part of an elite Vietnam unit, the Military Assistance Command, Vietnam – Studies and Observations Group.

There is more in the article, but basically the rumor comes from a casting site.  This will be a Treyarch release, so not a whole lot to get excited about I guess.  What do you think about a possible CoD Vietnam game?
