Call of Duty 5 Trophy List - technically from www.ps3trophies.co.uk

| 16 | Carlsons Raiders | |
| Complete 'Semper Fi' on any difficulty. (Solo only) Simple. | ||
| 17 | Stormed Peleliu | |
| Establish a beachhead at Peleliu Island on any difficulty. (Solo only) Surely, you can beat the game, at least. | ||
| 18 | The Last Stand | |
| Survive the conflict in Okinawa on any difficulty. (Solo only) Surely, you can beat the game, at least. | ||
| 19 | Stabbed in the Heart | |
| Complete all missions on the Eastern Front on any difficulty. (Solo only) Surely, you can beat the game, at least. | ||
| 20 | Hardened War Hero | |
| Complete the game on Hardened or Veteran difficulty. (Solo only) Complete every mission, in any order, on one of the difficulties. Clearly, you should be working on Veteran for all the other trophies above, so use that one. | ||
| 21 | War Hero | |
| Complete the game on any difficulty. (Solo only) Surely, you can beat the game, at least. | ||
| 22 | Saved Private Ryan | |
| Save the soldier before he burns to death. Shoot or melee the burning Japanese soldier in the first level when he charges Private Ryan. Shouldn't be a real problem. | ||
| 23 | Weapon of Mass Destruction | |
| Radio in a naval bombardment that kills at least 4 Japanese soldiers. You get the bombardment option in the next level, but I've had a lot of trouble actually getting this one to trigger. | ||
| 24 | The Professional | |
| Shoot all of Amsel's henchmen, including their attack dog, without reloading. (Solo only) Once you realize that you can kill two guards with one bullet if they are behind one another, this is fairly easy. Shoot the right pair, the middle pair, and the left pair (two bullets for them), then a guard will come out. Don't shoot him until his dog comes out and sticks its nose behind his left leg, when you can get both of them at once. | ||
| 25 | Gunslinger | |
| Assassinate General Amsel with a pistol shot. (Solo only) There is a YouTube video out there that shows how you can blow up a truck to kill Amsel with a pistol. | ||
| 26 | Lights Out! | |
| In 'Black Cats', blast out all of the spot lights in the Japanese cargo convoy. (Solo only) The spot lights are at both ends of the three ships. Just shoot them. | ||
| 27 | Rough Economy | |
| Kill 3 enemies with a single round. Can happen at any time, but is most easy on the first Russian level when you have a sniper rifle. | ||
| 28 | Guardian Angel | |
| In the final battle for Okinawa, save Sergeant Roebuck. When Roebuck and Polonsky go to negotiate with the "surrendering" Japanese, watch the two Japanese soldiers near Roebuck. When the grenade goes off near Polonsky, shoot the two soldiers to save Roebuck, which somehow means Polonsky dies instead. | ||
| 29 | Close Shave | |
| Survive a banzai attack. (Solo only) Let a banzai charger get to you, and you'll get the animation where he is about to bayonet you. Press R3 at basically any time to survive it. | ||
| 30 | Snake in the Grass | |
| Take out a Japanese soldier lying in wait in the grass. In several levels, soldiers are hiding in the grass waiting to attack you. You'll just have to realize in one playthrough where those surprise attacks are and shoot them before they pop out next time. | ||
| 31 | Grave Robber | |
| Collect all Death Cards in the game. (Solo only) Here's a link. | ||
| 32 | No Safe Place | |
| Burn an enemy out of a tree with the flamethrower in 'Hard Landing'. There are lots of trees with soldiers in them where all the soldiers pop out of the grass later in the level. They're fairly close to the ground, so just burn 'em out. | ||
| 33 | Throw a Six and a Half | |
| On Hardened or Veteran difficulty, complete a level without dying. (Solo only) This is easiest on Black Cats, if you just make sure you shoot the PT boats before doing anything else. | ||
| 34 | Purple Heart | |
| When staring into the face of adversity, show courage and persevere. Die. A lot. You'll likely earn it at some point while trying to complete the game on Veteran. | ||
| 35 | Firestarter | |
| Complete a level using only the flamethrower. Melee, grenades & explosives are OK. Burn 'em Out works pretty well for this on an easy difficulty. Just abstain from using bullets, and your infinite ammo flamethrower will get you through. | ||
| 36 | Kamikaze | |
| Complete a level on Regular difficulty or higher using only melee or grenades. (Solo only) This is easiest on the first level, Semper Fi. Don't use bullets, and don't be afraid to hide when you're hurt. | ||
| 37 | Iron Fist | |
| Destroy all towers and bunkers in 'Blood and Iron'. Not too nuanced. | ||
| 38 | Ruthless | |
| Kill 15 enemies while mounted on a tank in 'Ring of Steel'. At the end of this level, tanks roll up to pursue the fleeing Germans. Go up to one and hold Square to get on the machine gun on top, with which you can easily gun down 15 of them. | ||
| 39 | Mortar-dom | |
| Kill 8 Japanese with thrown mortars in 'Breaking Point. If you find the mortars, they're plenty destructive, so just use them and nothing else for a while until you get the trophy confirmation. | ||
| 40 | Shot in the Dark | |
| Kill 10 enemies while the lights are out in the subway in 'Eviction'. As the lights flicker out and your allies basically tell you to wait, start shooting the enemies, or even charging them for melee attacks if you're on an easy difficulty. | ||
| 41 | Sum of All Zeros | |
| Down 45 Japanese Zeros in 'Black Cats'. (Solo only) Difficult. Don't try to rescue survivors, and make sure you get a lot shot down in the initial crowd of them. | ||
| 42 | Blue Ribbon | |
| Complete a 4-player Competitive Co-Op match in 1st place. (Online co-op Only) No real advice here, except go on an easy difficulty and charge ahead of your friends. | ||
| 43 | Get Your Left Foot Wet | |
| Complete a match in Campaign Co-Op mode. (Online co-op only) | ||
| 44 | Get Your Right Foot Wet | |
| Complete a match in Competitive Co-Op mode. (Online co-op only) | ||
| 45 | Platinum | |
| Awarded when all other trophies have been unlocked. |
