Who Are The Warzone Operators Based On?

Helen Park / Lilly Cowles

Lerch / Tony Sentmanat

Kitsune / Akemi Look

Otter / SAS Operator

This is a funny one. This Otter skin is a nod to the SAS operator who was photographed during an active firefight in Kenya. He grabbed his weapon and assisted local Kenyan authorities when there was a terrorist attack on a hotel and he was off-duty nearby. | © Activision Blizzard / The Guardian

D-Day / Emil Daubon

This next one is another actual soldier, Emil Daubon, who was a US Army Green Beret before going into film as a writer and actor. The likeness to D-Day is obvious with this one. | © Activision Blizzard / Elites_Academy's Twitter

Roze / Jamie Gray Hyder

Any Law and Order fans? They will have recognized Jamie Gray Hyder instantly. Unlike Roze, she seems like a far nicer person, and does a lot of work with veterans and charities, besides acting. | © Activision Blizzard / Jamie Gray Hyder's Twitter

Talon / Andy Arrabito

Andy Arrabito, the inspiration for Talon, is a retired Navy SEAL who's taken up acting since leaving the Navy. He's also an ambassador for the custom knife company Half Face Blades. | © Activision Blizzard / SPEAR Tactical's Tumblr

Mara / Alex Zedra

Probably the most famous of new-generation Warzone operators, Mara is based on the model Alex Zedra. And Alex Zedra actually plays Warzone on Twitch sometimes. | © Activision Blizzard / Alex Zedra's Instagram

Captain Price / John McAleese

How could we not end on the classic. Captain Price is based on John McAleese, a decorated British soldier, who fought in the Falklands, and in Ireland during The Troubles, and on countless undisclosed missions. He's been the bodyguard of three Prime Ministers, and he led the famous SAS raid on the Iranian Embassy during the hostage crisis of 1980. Yep, a real-life Captain Price. | © Activision Blizzard / Daily Record
