Note: reaching the building on the map above is a bit strange. You need to land on the muddy area to the southeast then follow the mud paths to reach it. There is a nice machine gun with a drum mag on top of a silo along the correct path.

During dialogue with the Captain you will learn he has lost crew mates in the open world area. This dialogue serves as a clue and is helpful in earning more trust. To find the lost crew make your way to the location marked on the map above. At this location you will need to climb a tower. At the top of the tower you will find the Captain’s XO. Once you’ve made this discovery you will radio Captain about his crew.

Blow Up the Submarine for Captain

Follow the above listed choices and you will unlock the A Man of Principle Trophy/Achievement for your efforts. If you are wanting to platinum this DLC content you will need to complete this trophy.
