    This guide will show you a very easy spot to get this achievement early on in the game. During the second mission, Operation Cobra, when you are assigned the objective "Reach the AA Gun," you will see a barn with the roof blown out and Germans firing MG's on the second floor. Make your way to the barn, clear it, then wait on the second floor. All of your allies will group up here and start firing at the enemies below. Eventually, an enemy grenade will come flying into the loft area you're in and all you have to do is throw it back out. Because you have 5+ allies around you here, this should easily unlock the achievement (it might take a second to pop)!

    Okay, the first solution did not work for me at all, but I found one that works every time... During the second mission, Operation Cobra, when you are assigned the objective "Push Forward With Your Armor", just line up behind the tank in the middle (where the marker and your troops are) and just after you enter the field a grenade should land right in your lap. Hit RB, then restart at "Last Checkpoint" and do it till it pops. The checkpoint is about 5-10 seconds before the grenade lands, so it's easy.

    You can also pop the Spotter cheevo on this mission, and the healer one, tons of 'em.
