Dwayne Johnson‘s cousin is serving as the inspiration for a new Call of Duty pack, with the WWE legend praising his family member in a new post.
The Rock’s cousin Ben is a former and highly decorated Navy Seal, having received multiple Bronze Stars and Purple Hearts, and served as a member of Seal Team 6. Ben’s likeness was recently used in the Call of Duty Endowment Warrior Pack, which also includes various weapon blueprints, vehicle skins, and more.
In a tweet, The Rock praised Ben for his service, calling him an “inspiration” while also thanking Call of Duty for honoring Ben and their Samoan heritage in the pack.
“This is my cousin, Ben, who I consider my brother – and this is incredible,” The Rock said. “Ben is a 16 year decorated Navy SEAL, Command member of SEAL TEAM 6, Multiple Bronze Stars, Purple Heart recipient. He served our great nation and now he serves the veteran community as the inspiration behind the @CallOfDutyEndowment (C.O.D.E.) Warrior Pack, which incorporates his military service and our Samoan heritage.
“Every purchase of the pack in @CallofDuty Modern Warfare III goes directly towards the placement of U.S. and U.K. veterans in great jobs + careers. His operator handle in the game is KOA KING. KOA means WARRIOR is Samoan. This whole thing is very cool and bad ass.
Love you “giggles” ? ? ?? You’re an inspiration brother ? This is a phenomenal partnership.”
