Down/Heavy-Forward-Medium X2: Jonesy (Level 1) - A corpse of a soldier will appear out of nowhere, and Boykin will say "Jonesy, I'm out of ammo!!" before taking a new ammo clip from the corpse.

Medium-Backwards/Up-Forward-Forward-Heavy X2 - Civilian Evac (Level 3) - A green cloud of gas appears. If both Boykin and the opponent are close to it, they will start coughing violently, while gas zombies appear. Boykin frantically shoots at the gas zombies, killing 2 and hitting the opponent with stray bullets. After that, Boykin says "I need to get this civilian out of here!!", grabs the opponent, and shoves them into his jeep before slamming the door. He then gets into the driver's seat and drives off, ramming into several gas zombies, as one of them breaks through the back window and starts attacking the opponent, biting at them.
