The surest way to collect a guard's Dog Tags is to capture the guard by getting the drop on him from behind. If the player can determine a way to sneak up on him from behind and aim a handgun at the enemy, your character will yell "FREEZE!" and the guard will raise his hands and surrender. Once the guard is captured, gently release the Attack button and move directly in front of him. From this position, you can threaten an enemy and make him offer up the tags.
After you have captured an enemy, an no other sentries are nearby, move directly in front of the arrested soldier and press Attack to aim handgun at him again. Then enter First Person View and aim the weapon at the guard's head or crotch area. The guard will be for mercy and should soon shake out his Dog Tags. Then shoot the guard and collect the tags.
Some guards will resist capture, taunting your character. These soldiers must be threatened by firing a loud warning shot at their feet or past their head. Equipping a heavy artillery weapon, such as the Stinger, the Nikita, or the RGB6 will cause any guard to offer up the tags immediately, without having to aim at his body parts. If the guard does not respond to warning shots, or if the SOCOM pistol has been equipped with a suppressor, shoot one of the guards's arms or legs. Then he'll beg for mercy and offer his tags.
If you do not have strong enough firepower to threaten a guard, tranquilize himand try again later. If you stand in front of a taunting guard for too long, a twinkle appears in the soldier's eyes and he will attempt to overthrow your character!
You can also claim Dog Tags from bosses, such as Olga Gurlukovich and Fatman. Simply pick up their body and release. Their Dog Tags will then appear.

It's pretty easy to get Dog Tags from guards on the Plant chapter. Simply shoot everyone in the area with your M9 so they will be asleep. Then wake up one guard at a time with the Coolant Spray. Get their tags, shoot them again, and go to the next guard!
On the Tanker chapter, all you have to do (since you don't have Coolant Spray) is, knock on the wall to get the guard out of his patrol route and away from any other patrolling guards. Get their tags and do the same for any other guards that may be in the area. Be warned that if you run into a "tough guy" gaurd, don't use your un-suppressed USP to make the give their tags up, with other guards in the area. Suppress or kill all the other guards first then go after the "tough guy". If you do however run into a "tough guy" guard while other guards are patrolling, simply suppress him then take care of any other guards. Then come back to the "tough guy" guard and wake him up by either shaking him repeatedly or by shooting his leg, then arm if he doesn't wake up yet. Then get his tags! This may also work for the Plant chapter also.
