	Comment #5 by DissObey Tuesday, November 08, 2011 @ 10:06:06 AM Inpossible to do this on vet, most you can get is 3 before the group riddle you with bullets. Price and soap don't defend you at all on veteran..

	Comment #6 by DissObey Tuesday, November 08, 2011 @ 10:10:53 AM Just got it on veteran :D The method i used was to wait for the first truck on the right to stop, quickly snipe the driver and gunner, then snipe all the enemies until there is nobody left, then jump on the mortar, get the group on the right and then the left truck. I only used two shell and it unlocked.

	Comment #8 by UN SUB 1001 Wednesday, November 09, 2011 @ 02:12:16 PM thank you Expressbishop again great video keep them up, thank you to every one

	Comment #9 by Fluttershy Mysticune Wednesday, November 09, 2011 @ 02:12:58 PM Got it in 3 shells, when the first truck stops, launch it and you should get both. Givs you an extra shot in case you miss one.

	Comment #10 by ViolatorX Wednesday, November 09, 2011 @ 05:14:26 PM I did it on Veteran in about the 4th attempt, The key is to kill all the enemies in the building before climbing up to the mortar. Snipe them all through the fence to clear them. First target should be impossible to miss, Second you can aim for the top of the road when it first appears and that will take that one out. Let the 3rd one drive down the road and stop before firing at it. Then when the mob appears aim to the let of the car they walk by. I tried this 3 times afterwards and worked everytime.

	Comment #12 by Crizzixx Thursday, November 10, 2011 @ 07:44:45 PM You don't have to kill all the troops with the mortar. I did something similar to #6 and #10, used sniper to clear out enemies THEN used the mortar. Worked like a charm on Veteran.

	Comment #13 by Naberios Friday, November 11, 2011 @ 06:30:43 PM Sniping everyone until no one else shows up after getting to where I was standing right next to the mortar worked great for me. Got it in 3 shots.

	Comment #14 by Brasco53 Saturday, November 12, 2011 @ 06:39:30 AM Pretty easy. You can take out two vehicles with 1 mortar. Nice vid http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wtuWVfrEHRk

	Comment #15 by Deadly sinner96 Saturday, November 12, 2011 @ 06:22:32 PM This is a METTALICA refrence theres a song called "for whom the bell tolls"

	Comment #16 by irritatie Sunday, November 13, 2011 @ 03:34:45 AM If you play it on recruit you can't miss it. Jus wait until the targets come to a halt and then fire the mortar.

	Comment #17 by illadelphiaLOVE Sunday, November 13, 2011 @ 12:23:44 PM Super Easy, before u use the mortar, go up to where it is, bring out the sniper and kill all the troops on the ground first then when no one is shooting at you, use the mortar and kill the trucks that come in first try to shoot em as they come in, if not just aim good and kill the one on the top road then the one down low then the ones moving in the shack below. i got this using only 3 shots. super simple. just kill em as you would but aim better than usual so u only use 3 shots most 4

	Comment #18 by AlmightyTallest Sunday, November 13, 2011 @ 01:46:48 PM @ #15: Possibly, but not necessarily. There's an Ernest Hemingway novel with the same title. Could be either. Hell, could be both for all I know. OT, thanks to everyone for the tips. Gonna try this out when I get home from work today =D

	Comment #19 by MM2313 Friday, November 18, 2011 @ 10:07:48 PM I did this on Recruit to save a lot of time. I basically waited until the first truck stopped, then I destroyed it with the mortar. I got lucky with my second shot and destroyed the next two trucks. For the fourth and final one, I missed on the third shot, but then nailed him on the fourth shot. Achievement earned! If anyone has a problem getting that achievement, just restart the checkpoint and try again!

	Comment #20 by Harbinger79 Tuesday, November 22, 2011 @ 06:11:03 PM I did this the first time on Hardened. I got used to that kind of aiming from CODBO.

	Comment #21 by tylerjay816 Saturday, December 03, 2011 @ 01:17:21 AM @15 i like how youre the only person to post about it :p rock on

	Comment #22 by US ARMY CW5 Thursday, December 15, 2011 @ 07:08:22 PM Man it took me forever I was doin it wrong but I only needed one shell

	Comment #23 by Fifa08Meister Friday, December 16, 2011 @ 06:20:02 AM Easily done by following instructions on video :)

	Comment #24 by ForfeitPlague69 Tuesday, December 27, 2011 @ 05:59:49 PM Just got this one totally by accident. I used the sniper and got the guy on the first truck and then the other enemies running around, and then the truck he was on just went and crashed into a building. When the others came, I used the mortar on two of the targets and then Price says to get off the mortar, and when I did I had apparently got the achievement. Well, okay then.

	Comment #25 by theCUBEtrain Wednesday, January 11, 2012 @ 07:17:34 PM guy to post about this being a Metallica reference..no shit..

	Comment #26 by theCUBEtrain Wednesday, January 11, 2012 @ 07:18:36 PM and its not for whom the bell tolls its "FROM whom the bell tolls" good try though

	Comment #27 by theCUBEtrain Wednesday, January 11, 2012 @ 07:29:50 PM haha... never mind im a douche. my apologies sir.

	Comment #28 by roguedelta Sunday, February 19, 2012 @ 08:19:14 AM I was lucky, got 3 trucks with 2 shells and had to use 2 more for the final target..

	Comment #29 by Trubbel Tuesday, April 10, 2012 @ 08:58:58 AM This is a pretty easy achievement to be honest. I got this on hardened difficulty you can get the first truck and group of soldiers in the first mortar then the second and third truck with one mortar if timed correctly then you have 2 mortars left to take out the last target comfortably. got this on my 3rd attempt as hitting the second and third truck needs to be timed.

	Comment #31 by Calv1n Saturday, April 21, 2012 @ 05:12:09 PM I like this achievement because If you're good, you can hit all four targets with three shells. That means there is room for error, if you have trouble with that least target.

	Comment #32 by ChrissyWATP Friday, July 27, 2012 @ 10:04:26 AM Finally got it on veteran, but it wasn't easy!
