The Call of Duty Endowment launches its biggest veteran support campaign yet this May 2025, bringing real military heroes into the game while helping veterans find jobs. The “United Force” initiative, backed by financial services company USAA, connects players’ love for gaming with real-world support for veterans.

Players can now spot two familiar faces in the game – retired Army First Sergeant Korey Staley and Medal of Honor recipient Captain Florent “Flo” Groberg. Their likenesses appear as playable characters in the new United Force: Tracer Pack, available in both Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Warzone.

The United Force: Tracer Pack features operator skins inspired by these two U.S. Army Veterans who served in combat. Every net proceed from pack sales, after VAT/sales tax, goes directly to the Call of Duty Endowment’s mission of placing veterans into high-quality jobs.

The pack includes two special weapon designs with tracer effects – the “Ballistics Breaker” LW3A1 Frostline Sniper Rifle and “Barreled Barrage” Kilo 141 Assault Rifle – plus extras like calling cards and emblems. Active military members and veterans can claim this pack for free through USAA’s special offer with ID.me verification, while supplies last.

For those wanting to help beyond buying the pack, there’s the “Got Your Six” in-game event running until May 29. “Got your six” is military speak for “I’ve got your back” – fitting for an event where players earn rewards across Black Ops 6 (including Zombies) and Warzone while supporting veterans.

The initiative comes as the Endowment celebrates placing over 150,000 veterans in high-quality jobs. Through its grantee organizations, the Endowment provides free career services to help veterans transition into civilian careers.

What makes this different from past gaming charity events is how it brings real veterans’ stories into the game. Players aren’t just donating to help veterans – they’re playing as actual heroes who served their country.

The Call of Duty Endowment works in both the U.S. and U.K., funding organizations that help veterans find work. They offer these services free of charge, removing cost barriers for veterans seeking employment help.

For veterans looking for job support or players wanting to join the cause, the Call of Duty Endowment’s “United Force” initiative runs throughout May 2025. Active service members and veterans can verify their status through ID.me to claim their free content pack.
