"Eric Samuels was part of President Bosworth's Secret Service detail and was responsible for safely transporting her through Los Angeles during Menendez's drone attacks in 2025 - a battle in which Samuels fought alongside, and earned the trust of, experienced CIA agents like David Mason and Mike Harper. Old school and tough as nails, Samuels' peers look to him for leadership and strength in times of crisis. His ability to spot threats well before they materialize, coupled with his cool head in a firefight, make him the ideal Secret Service operative. It is rumored that Samuels has turned down multiple CIA recruitment offers, preferring his role as a protector of the country's most important leaders."

Protecting President Bosworth[]
Samuels was part of the protection detail for President Marion Bosworth, following Raul Menendez's successful attack on the USS Barack Obama. If Mike Harper is present as part of the detail, Samuels play a minor role. However, if Harper was killed during Achilles' Veil, Samuels will essentially replace Harper's role during the mission, but will not destroy the CLAW that is right outside the MRAP after the car crash. Unlike Harper, Samuels will also not accompany David "Section" Mason on foot for the duration of the mission. He will, however, remain on comms, and will congratulate Section in person at the end of the mission.
