Since Call of Duty: Black Ops is set during the Cold War – an era synonymous with the word "secrecy" – you should expect to reach the credits with a few unanswered questions. Don't worry. All the information needed to piece together the game's conspiracy theories is readily available.
Hidden within each of Black Ops' 14 main missions – "U.S.D.D." doesn't count – are three recording boxes known as intel. That's 42 in total, and the more you collect, the more censored black bars will disappear when you access the intel section of the main menu. Plus, you'll unlock an Achievement /Trophy.
So, ready to search? Pick a mission and i'll show you exactly where to look

OPERATION 40
OPERATION 40
Operation 40 - Intel 1
You’ll follow Woods and Bowman through an arched stone gate and then up a set of stone stairs as they talk about the U.S. trying to kill Castro for the past three years. When you reach the storage building pictured above, check the crates on the wall opposite where you entered. The first intel is right next to the rocket launcher.

Start looking for this intel after you’ve killed the Castro lookalike and his mistress. You’ll move through a short outdoor section, then into the large, fiery hall with balconies pictured above. The intel is through the first door on the right, past an unmade bed and television.

VORKUTA
Vorkuta - Intel 1
Wait until Sergei is breaking down the door to the arms locker and you’re climbing the tower stairs with Reznov. Halfway up, he’ll split off to commandeer a broadcast station. The intel will be on a cabinet to the right of his back.

Vorkuta - Intel 2
Sergei is trapped! Slide under the door! Directly ahead will be the control room with a panel to free him, while in the back right corner of the warehouse will be a dark hallway leading to a desk with the intel. Make sure to grab it before climbing the stairs and continuing the mission.

Vorkuta - Intel 3
When you wake up next to the motorcycles, turn around 180 degrees and search the area a few yards behind Reznov. The intel is on a bottom shelf, illuminated by a nearby lamp. This intel must be grabbed before approaching your motorcycle and triggering the chase sequence.

Executive Order
Executive Order - Intel 1
Once you’ve broken cover by shooting the guards - in the mission’s first interior section - make your way up the stairs until you reach the third floor, helpfully labeled with the number “3” painted on the walls. The intel is located under a gold insignia and four TV monitors.

Executive Order - Intel 2
Plant the C4, blow a hole in the wall, then - as the launch room crashes and sparks around you, but before leaving to shoot down the rocket - run towards the computer console in the corner and take the intel.

Executive Order - Intel 3
The third intel can be found in a series of underground bunkers at the end of this mission. Look for a portrait of Vladimir Lenin on the wall to know when you’re in the correct room, then check the top of the computer console near the window for the intel.

S.O.G.
S.O.G. - Intel 1
Find this intel in the open hill area, after you’ve destroyed the three tanks and before you drop down the hatch. It’s located in front of the long supply shed at the top of the hill.

S.O.G. - Intel 2
You’ll exit the tunnels and enter another big downhill section with waves of Vietcong soldiers attacking. In the midst of all the chaos, make your way down and to the left - there’s a large shelter near the bottom, with the intel sitting on a window sill. Since this area is relatively nonlinear, you should study the screens or watch the video for a more exact idea of its location.

S.O.G. - Intel 3
More tunnels, these full of injured U.S. soldiers and broken, burning structure beams. Right before you reach the brighter room with the American flag, check the darker corner to your right, near the soldier catching his breath. The intel is located on a lower shelf.

THE DEFECTOR
The Defector - Intel 1
See the mysterious projector and screen? Leave that room and halfway down the hall - on your right - will be a smaller room with a corpse on the floor and an intel on the green desk.

The Defector - Intel 2
At this point, you’ll be fighting through the streets of Ho Chi Minh City, supporting a tank and calling targets for a helicopter. Look for the building indicated in the first screen above - use the Vietnamese store signs for reference if necessary - and within you’ll find the intel on a desk under a clock.

The Defector - Intel 3
Near the end of the mission, you’ll be asked to hold position in a large town square as Vietcong attack through smoke screens. Before fighting them all off, find the building under the “
AK” billboard and enter through the torn hole in the wall. The intel is on a desk to the left.You must login or register to view this content.

NUMBERS
Numbers - Intel 1
Your interrogation of Clarke has been very rudely interrupted, but before running forward to fight and climb the ladder, turn to your right and head into the side room full of messy papers and bulletin boards. The intel is here.

Climb down the pipe, shoot the two unsuspecting soldiers from above, run across the rainy planks while Clarke tells you the location of Steiner and, finally, slide across the sloped rooftop in slow-motion as birds fly away. The intel is hidden behind the low wall in front of you, left side.

Numbers - Intel 3
Know the part at the end of the mission, when you slide down a ramp into an ambush? And survive only with a pistol until a van picks you up? Yeah, if you reached that part, you’ve already gone a little too far. Let yourself die so that the game reloads, then immediately before sliding down the last ramp - but immediately after jumping over the last balcony railing - turn 180 degrees around to discover the intel sitting within easy grasp on the ground behind you.

PROJECT NOVA
Project Nova - Intel 1
When the scripted truck ride finishes, you’ll run downhill through dozens of enemies. Eventually, the game will block your outside progress with two snowmobiles, forcing you inside a dark, two-story building. The intel is in the second room of the second floor, under a map of the United States.

Grab this intel as you’re escaping the ship under a time limit. It’s located on the upper decks, past a pair of curved pipes and just to the right of a narrow staircase - the same staircase that leads you to the rope that ends the mission.

VICTOR CHARLIE
Victor Charlie - Intel 1
Murder the two Vietcong as they sleep in their hammocks, then head into the next room. Before sneaking forward to kill the man who’s sitting on a crate and eating, turn back towards the door you entered and you’ll see a small outside area on the right. The intel is propped in the corner, opposite the metal barrels.

Blow up the Vietnamese village and make your way to the hut at the very back of town. The intel is on the ground, right of the wooden table.

Victor Charlie - Intel 3
This intel can be found in the rat tunnels. You will help Reznov move a barrier and then watch him smash a Vietnamese soldier against the wall. Afterwards, he will tell you to take the lead - move forward, but turn left at the first possible opportunity. The intel is halfway along this detour tunnel, lying on the righthand side.

Crash Site
Crash Site - Intel 1
When the mission begins, just walk in a straight line. Pass the helicopter, pass the red flare, until you reach a crate with barrels. The intel is on top. If you boarded the boat, you went way too far.

WMD
WMD - Intel 1
Grab this intel after you’ve swooshed from the Blackbird in space to the team on the ground for the second time. Breach the door, clear the room of enemies, and check the desk to your left, below the railing.

WMD - Intel 2
Shoot the hinges off the door and make your way up to the communication tower, kicking down another door to enter. Teammates will rappel through the windows and start taking out bad guys on the balcony. Run through the chaos until you reach a locker room in the back of the upper floor. The intel is on a bench.

Finish the game of roulette and begin chasing the Russian through the underground tunnels. Within a minute or two, you should reach a larger cavern with a waterfall and streaming sunlight. The intel is on a metal shelf agains the righthand wall.

Payback - Intel 3
Free Reznov and race after him, into a large room with lots of rafter beams and LOTS of bad guys. Once the area is safe, look for the intel in the back left corner, a little left of the door that enemies kept popping through.

Rebirth
Rebirth - Intel 1
Exit the shipping container and stealth kill the first guard with an axe. The intel is immediately to your left here, on the ground in front of a crate. Don’t take too long, however, or you’ll be spotted by the helicopters.

Rebirth - Intel 2
Inside the laboratory of caged monkeys and pigs is an octagonal gas containment chamber that holds both the intel and a soldier. Here’s the tricky part. If you shoot at the soldier, the chamber’s doors will automatically close, blocking you from entering. So use your knife instead, or shoot him after you’ve acquired the intel. Don’t worry if you’re trapped and killed by Nova 6 gas - the mission will reload shortly before this point, with the intel already in your collection.

Rebirth - Intel 3
When you’re playing as Hudson in the hazmat suit, a building will explode into flames right in front of you. The mission path will take you into this building and up the stairs, but first, check the door on your right. Inside is a small dining room, and across from the stove and fridge, on a wall full of pots and pans, is the intel.

REVELATIONS
Revelations - Intel 1
After escaping the interrogation chair at the very beginning of the mission, you’ll stumble down the hallway and through a set of double doors. Turn left here instead of continuing forward to find the intel on top of a glowing vending machine.

Revelations - Intel 2
Within seconds of collecting the previous intel, you’ll trigger a lengthy flashback in which Mason lies on a table and his unusual willpower is discussed. After the cutscene, move towards the hallway’s hypnotic red numbers and turn right. This direction is a dead end, but by sticking to shadowy left wall, you’ll discover another intel on top of a trash can.

Revelations - Intel 3
Continue stumbling until you see the JFK flashback and the hallucination of a rocket launching above you. At the end of this hallway, turn left into a larger office and look for the intel on a desk. It’s next to a typewriter and near the four television screens.

REDEMPTION
Redemption - Intel 1
Finish the helicopter sequence, then run forward until you see an open shipping container with a mast pole collapsed on its roof. Go inside the container - the intel is tucked under the door at the other end. If you reach the Valkyrie rocket launcher, you’ve gone too far.

Redemption - Intel 2
Blow up the two helicopters and continue forward. The mission will take you inside the ship. After descending a couple sets of stairs, fighting through a small locker room, and descending another couple sets of stairs, you’ll reach a larger room, with two enemies taking cover behind a table. The intel is behind that table as well.
Redemption - Intel 3
Call of Duty: Black Ops’ final intel can be found immediately before you enter the final room of the game, in a little observation hallway with two desks and two swivel chairs. The intel is underneath the left desk.
