Mission 2: Dark Secret

Part 1: Village - Secrets: 2

1- After speaking to the resistance member who gives you the Sten, exit out the door he opens for you. Go left, straight ahead, off the bridge and under it. Go right through the gate, then left and follow this pathway all the way to a little bar. Kill all the soldiers and go over to the bookcase. There's one book on the second case that sticks out. Push it in and the floor of the bar will open. In the basement you'll find medkits and GOLD!

A- Not a secret, but fun. After getting Secret one, head back out till you're by the bridge again. There should be a door to your right and a set of stairs in front of you. Go in the door, it's just a German gal and some food. Take a chair. Now go back out and head up those stairs. You'll have to dispatch a couple Nazis, and then right in front of you will be some steps down. There's a ledge that goes around towards a second story window, but you can't jump in the window. So creep along the ledge and carefully lay down the chair underneath the window. Jump on chair, jump into window! Now you can take out 2 snipers before they whack you later on, and you'll also find ammo and health kits! (PS - I found a pipe on the other side of the wall that you can just climb to get up here, but hey, why not do it the hard way? Har!)

2- After the two above parts, move on until you get to the double doors that lead down into the wine cellar (the one where the 2 officers are chatting). There's a balcony along the far wall of this courtyard. Get on a railing and jump from the railing to the snow-covered corner, then to the next side and from there up to the balcony. The balcony has two health packs.

Part 2: Catacombs - Secrets: 1

1- Sometimes, finding these secrets is just NOT FUN. But I digress. After you've gotten Dr. Zemph's journal, go through the crypt and up the rubble to a room with four coffins. Around the corner is a hallway, and to your left is the other part of the 2nd floor that you couldn't get to before because some of it collapsed. Kill the zombies. You'll notice a conspicuous painting to your left along the far wall. It won't open. Go back towards the room with 4 coffins but take a left and you'll come to another room with 4 coffins - there's a dead Nazi on the ground and one of the torches has burnt out. Anyway, to the right of the Nazi's body along the far wall is a loose brick. Rummage around until you find it, and press it. Once you press it, you have only several seconds to get back to that painting I mentioned before. Sprint to the painting, go inside and get The Helmet. Whew...

Part 3: Crypt - Secrets: 2

1- After getting across the bridge guarded by the fire-breathing zombie, there'll be a big, garish cross to your left. Kick it a few times and it will fall and make a hole in the floor. Go through until you reach the crypt, which has ammo and health! To get out, the switch is behind the coffin. 2- Eventually, you'll get to the room with the three traps you have to spring to get the elevator platform to come down. Do them in this order: First, the one with the eye symbol above the door; Second, the one with the crane symbol over the door; Third, the one with the snake symbol. When you go up to the second level, go around to either side of the alcove with the lever. Both sides will be opened up and inside will be a chest of treasure!

Part 4: The Defiled Church - Secrets: 1

1- When you reach the chapel full of Nazi death girls, kill them all and go up the ladder in the room left of the altar. Go onwards until you can get out on the balcony overlooking the altar. Jump on the railing and then over onto the second floor area that's normally inaccessible. Go through the door at the far end and get health, ammo, and a creepy Skull!
