Idahoans have appeared on on American Ninja Warrior and The Apprentice through the years, but one of Boise's bravest just became a household name thanks to CBS's Survivor! 

 

In case you didn't watch the season, Ben is a 2001 Capital High grad who went on to serve the country as a Marine.  After returning home from Iraq, he felt himself floating from place to place...eventually ending up in Texas for a period of time.  While in Texas he tasked himself with the extremely difficult task of hand delivering one of his friend's dog tags to his mother.  The fellow Marine was killed while he and Driebergen were serving in Iraq and Driebergen felt that it was his duty to make sure the dog tags made it back to the family.

His original cast video is below!
