*For the ones wondering about Woods attitude towards Hudson:* *This scenario echoes real sentiments from actual U.S. soldiers towards CIA operatives during Vietnam War:* Woods thought Hudson was just another pencil-pusher bureaucrat who only showed up to the field when the shit was about to hit the fan, double faced bastards which saw the soldiers as expendable resources in order to achieve bigger objectives, thus, in dark contrast with the soldiers like Woods, which personally had to endure every day the harsh reality of a war, not behind a desk, but in the field, a soldier which saw their fellow teammates not as expendable resources, but as valuable brothers in arms. *However, Hudson was far from being a simple bureaucrat...* as seen later in game, Hudson actually proved to be a pretty capable combatant (He was Korean War veteran), who had enrolled in the CIA as field agent to keep fighting, a former soldier who, as Woods, cared for the lives of the soldiers around him. As you advance more in this level you can notice how Woods attitude towards Hudson subtle changes into a more positive light as he sees by himself that Hudson actually knows how to grab a weapon and put a decent fight.
It made no sense Hudson risked his life saving him in Angola when even the CIA gave up on it, was the only one that didn’t think Mason was a traitor after he went rouge killing Steiner, and sacrificed himself for him and David at the very end. Plus Woods was cool with Alder in Cold War who is also CIA and even shadier and more morally grey than Hudson
As far as we know in-game that never happened. They might’ve written the scenario up based on a less exciting report for Bell’s programming and made it sound just crazy enough that Bell would believe he was there but I don’t know what the writers intended. I don’t even know if portable nukes could’ve been present irl.
Well, it's a 6 shot revolver, either you check to make sure it's loaded and know you can make the shot, or chance it and risk being empty and having to find a new weapon
The level of detail in this game is still unmatched. At 4:21 an NVA does a suicide charge with grenades into the bunker on the top right when Mason talks to Hudson. Then a marine jumps on the grenade to save everyone else.
One of the best Black OPS missions. When I finished the game, I liked to select several missions and complete them again. In that case, I have chosen all Vietnam missions and played them again. What a nostalgic vibe
hmmm clearly they pay no mind to chain of command when developing these games. Mason holds the rank of Captain yet he's assigned to a unit commanded by Frank Woods... a Sergeant...
Studies and Observation Group (S.O.G) is a covert operation that led by Frank but observed by higher ranking officer and CIA like Mason and Hudson, their missionis to search any russian communist influencer in vietnam
Well, I think mason said he was led by woods because woods is an NCO, whereas mason is a normal CO, but officers typically listen to the NCOs because they’ve spent more time in the field. Plus I think woods is a senior NCO. Not to mention that in this mission, mason and Hudson are barely getting there, while woods has clearly been there for months
I miss when this game was in its hey day.. I remember when me and my buddies would stay up all night completing zombies Easter eggs like Shangri la and call of the dead, 8th grade for me.. this game was all I played that summer.. good times man, good times

I own the PS3 version of this game, and every single time i try to play this mission, the game freezes during the first cutscene. Any idea why that is? It can't be the disc that's the problem, because i own two copies of the game, and both discs are in good condition.
1:53 It says there that Khe Sanh will provide support for the operation. So for the sake of the game. What if Kravchenko (Lev Kravchenko is his full name) what if Kravchenko told the Vietnamese to attack Khe Sanh because he was able to listen in on their radios and hear that Khe Sang would provide support. So Kravchenko told the North Vietnamese to attack Khe Sanh.
Not a terrible idea, but I'm pretty sure they just happen to be at Khe Sanh when the NVA attack and are forced to delay their operation because it's all hands on deck.
Euward Andre Talanay Well the M14 is (I believe to be) a direct upgrade of the orignal Garand design. It was the replacement of the Garand for the entirety of the ‘Nam war.
Literally I have been trying so hard to take the hill and everything but every time no matter how many enemies I kill they keep coming back and I feel like I’ve accomplished nothing and it’s annoying when I keep dying and it returns to the SAME point when we first come down the ladder.
Yeah, lol. I remember this being the hardest part, making it down the bloody hill while Vietnamese soldiers are constantly spraying you with bullets. It took me like 30 tries ti actually get past it when I played on PS3.
Definitely the Vietnam theme in Black Ops 1, which in my humble opinion improved on that made the WaW Russian campaign so good and outdid it. Vietnam was much more gruttier, more action and a lot of interesting Cold War/CIA/KGB/Secret operations intrigues which were merged into the missions.
9:44 you know when i was in grade school i was worried on seeing this because the VC Kept coming i was emptying every single round on those vc funny thing is i finished the mission exactly i timed out in the computer shop memories
This is honestly one of the darkest COD moments. While vietnam was suppost to be a WW2 scenario for the Americans, it all went to hell for both sides when the russians assisted them. Countless soldiers died horribly, NVA burning, decapitating and torturing soldiers not just for interrogation but for sport too, as well as the desolation of HUE city, which to this day, is still in rubble. In this war, it's a dark reminder that America wasn't ready for hell...
The war in Afghanistan is almost as worst as the Vietnam War, this war is our endgame not the enemies of the war, America is now winning the war in Afghanistan, you just gotta have faith in the U.S. Army and the Allied forces.
What the United States should do is get out of the Middle East because Osama Bin Laden is dead. They should stop nation building and bring their troops home cuz they would be so much better off financially as well instead of spending billions on military.

M16s were notorious for doing that back then.
