Get to know John Cody

John Cody's own answers from the pre-game cast profile CBS published before the season aired.

Claim to fame
Being a West Point grad, graduating from Georgetown Medical School and training at the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center for my Orthopedic Surgery residency.
Hobbies
Basketball, golf and working out.
Pet peeves
Slow thinkers, talkers and movers; people who eat paper; illogical, irrational and inflexible people; excuses; mouth breathers.
Inspiration
The Wounded Warriors that we care for at Walter Reed.
Castaway they say they are most like
I relate most to Mick and Marcus because of my profession. I also relate to Penner and Boston Rob, as smart family oriented guys who realize they have more to play for than just themselves.
Why they wanted to play
This is one of the most intense, intellectual and physical challenges I can think of, and being able to play with Candice will make it that much more interesting and crazy!

Alliances fans have named

Survivor never names an alliance on screen. These names, and who counts as a member, are how the fan community records the game rather than an official record of it.
