- Follow your team through the swamp as Roebuck consoles the younger soldiers.
- Checkpoint Reached
- Take cover behind the stones on the left side of the pathway while your team examines the downed airplane ahead. It's the makings of an ambush, so why not be prepared?
- When the plane explodes, shoot the three soldiers that appear in front of it, then go after any remaining enemies. Watch out for any who rush towards you.
- Another ambush is ahead by the big tree running through your path. Start by shooting the well-camouflaged soldier to the left and move to his position for cover. Take down the remaining soldiers and move forward to meet some more allies.
- Checkpoint Reached
- Your next objective is to assault Japanese bunkers ahead. Press B to crouch, then stay all the way to the left on the path ahead, so you are positioned to the left of a nearby artillery cannon. This is a perfectly serviceable location to flank the opposing force.
- Stay crouched as you eliminate all the enemies. You should be safe from heavy gunfire, but watch for grenades.
- Checkpoint Reached
- Run into the first bunker and shoot the first enemy you see. When you reach a wall and you see a Japanese flag in the hallway to the left, turn the corner around the wall in front of you and shoot the enemy waiting behind it, then quickly spin to the left and kill the other enemy waiting in the next passageway
- Proceed through the bunker, shooting the last enemy inside, and join your fellow soldiers outside.
- Defeat any enemies that your allies haven't killed outside, then move through the burning structure ahead for your next objective.
- Checkpoint Reached
- On your way through the burning structure, look to your right and kill any enemies that are causing trouble for your fellow soldiers. Keep moving until you reach a vantage point on the bunker ahead.
- Checkpoint Reached
- Approach the cover where your team is waiting. Your next objective will be to recover a flamethrower from a fallen comrade. Stay low and navigate to the star icon as seen on your map. The flamethrower is glowing in gold to make it easier to see. Swap it with one of your weapons by holding X.
- Flame the bunker by aiming into the two windows and holding RT. When the controller rumbles, the objective is complete.
- Checkpoint Reached
- Keep the flamethrower -- you'll want it for an achievement later -- move through the bunker, taking out the two enemies hiding inside. Exit the bunker and start moving towards the airfield ahead.
- Checkpoint Reached
- Follow the path with your buddies. Get ready for an ambush once you see a plane going down in front of you.
- The enemies are clever at hiding, but not much of a threat otherwise. Start by shooting the handful hiding in the grass as they emerge
- Achievement: Pull out your flamethrower and torch the tree in front of you, where another soldier is positioned, to get "No Safe Place."
- Keep an eye out for charging enemies as the final batch rises from the grass. Move along the path.
- Checkpoint Reached
- You'll reach a trench ahead where your fellow soldiers are pinned down across from a building. On Roebuck's word, follow him through the trench to a nearby supply truck, where you can pick up a rifle fitted with rockets.
- Use the rockets to destroy the two machine guns perched on building's top floor. Approach the building from the left side and clear out as many other enemies as you can before moving in.
- Checkpoint Reached
- Death Card: Once inside the building, head through the doorway to the left, then turn right. Walk back and you'll see lantern casting light on a soldier's helmet. The "King of Hearts" is attached.
- Go back to the doorway and turn right. You'll see the stairs, walk up, turn back and move to the opening in the building, where you get a great view of the airfield.
- Follow Roebuck and your crew to the U.S. tanks.
- Checkpoint Reached
- Shortly along the path, you'll be directed to the left, where you can hop into a mortar pit and grab a bazooka. Hold X to pick it up, and use it to destroy three Type97 tanks.
- The first tank will roll right in front of your pit. Take it down with two shots from the bazooka, then head back into the mortar pit to grab some more ammo.
- Use your radar to locate the last two tanks, identifiable as golden circles with stars inside. You may have to run back to the mortar pit again if you run out of bazooka shells while fighting the tanks. This objective isn't too dangerous, just keep moving and watch for grenades.
- Strategy: Load up on bazooka ammo just before finishing off the last tank. This weapon will come in handy later.
- Checkpoint Reached
- An anti-aircraft bunker is giving the U.S. a hard time. Before raiding it, you need to clear the surrounding area. As you approach the Japanese base, you'll see a mortar pit teeming with enemies. Toss in a grenade to draw them out, then shoot as many as you can.
- Storm the mortar pit and clear any remaining enemies. Your teammates should follow suit.
- When you get to the wall of the AA bunker, turn right. Shoot the enemies guarding the entrance to the bunker and head up the stairs.
- Checkpoint Reached
- The objective to destroy the AA operators is fairly straightforward. You'll face enemies head-on. Take cover and shoot as many as you can, letting your allies do the rest. Don't forget to toss grenades at larger groups.
- Strategy: With so much commotion, it can be difficult to tell who is who. Look for the enemies with yellow helmets -- they are clearly not on your side.
- The AA guns are large turrets that point straight into the sky. Each of the four at this base has two men operating it. Kill them all and clear out the remaining troops to cue the victory music.
- Checkpoint Reached
- But don't celebrate just yet. You'll need to defend the tower from one last counterattack by the Japanese. Find the mounted cannon on the bunker's back wall and hold X to operate it.
- Resist the temptation to hold down the trigger the entire time while fighting the enemy. This will cause the machine gun to overheat, probably at the worst possible time.
- The wall-mounted gun has limited range. If any enemies are out of reach, get off the wall and use your conventional weapons and grenades to fend them off. If you saved any bazooka rounds from the tank battle, now is a good time to use them. Once you've held the base, it will be time to check in on your Russian allied soldier.
