There are several Dog Tags littered throughout Battlefield 4’s campaign mode. Whenever you’re near a collectible Dog Tag, you will hear a sound similar to the one that plays when you acquire a new weapon or when you’re awarded with a medal.
In this guide, we’ll cover all the locations where you can find all the dog tags in the game along with some weapons. For your convenience, we have arranged them in order in which you will find them in the game.
