Personality
John Price of the Ghosts/Modern Ware Remake shares a similar personality to the Original John Price while having some of 2019's John Price's mannerisms.

Soviet-Afghanistan War
John Price was sent to Afghanistan along with William Garrick and several other SAS operatives to provide support to the Mujahideen in 1981. However, despite giving adequate support - John Price and William Garrick are ambushed by Captain Vladimir Makarov (Federation). Garrick is shot in the back of the head by Makarov while John receives critical injuries after being shot in the ribs and his right thumb is shot off during the struggle with Makarov. Price promptly strangled Makarov to death before being knocked out by Makarov's second - Imran Zakhaev (Federation) - whom allows him to receive medical attention by Soviet soldiers before sending him back to London.

Reassignment
As a result of his wounds; John is relegated to desk jobs as he slowly climbed the ranks and become the new Director of the Special Air Services in 2011.
