Call Of Duty: Black Ops III’s Latest DLC Supports Real-Life Veterans

Obviously, Call of Duty is a series with a very pro-military outlook, and publisher Activision is extending that support to the real world. Call of Duty: Black Ops III just got a new DLC bundle, the Double Duty Pack, and 100 percent of the proceeds from its sale will go towards the Call of Duty Endowment, which helps US Armed Forces veterans get good-paying jobs after they leave the service.

The Double Duty Pack costs $4, and includes a new animated calling card and three rare supply drops. Here's what Black Ops III developer Treyarch had to say about the new pack:

"We're incredibly excited to continue to bring new content to our community in proud support of the Call of Duty Endowment's mission. This year's Double Duty Calling Card is animated to highlight the good work the Call of Duty Endowment does to help veterans transition to civilian life."

Meanwhile, Call of Duty Endowment executive director Dan Goldenberg thanked fans for their support:

"The Call of Duty community has always come out in a big way to support the Endowment and its work to help veterans. We're so grateful for their backing. To date, the in-game purchase program alone has helped our grantees get more than 4,000 veterans back to work—that's about the size of an aircraft carrier's crew."

The Call of Duty Endowment (CODE) has found jobs for over 37,000 American military vets since being founded in 2009. It costs $552 to find each veteran a job placement, with the average starting salary for positions being $56,784. 88 percent of veterans who find a job through CODE end up keeping it for at least six months.

The Double Duty Pack will be offered until February 7, 2018. Call of Duty: Black Ops III is currently available on PC, Xbox One, and PS4.
