This achievement requires you to disarm one of the High-Explosive Charges set by an enemy Soldier. To do this you must be an Engineer.

An easy level to gain this one on is the first mission for the RESISTANCE forces, Day 1: Getting Answers. The only main objective on this level is a set of two doors that your enemy will be attempting to breach through. This ensures that 90% of the time, 90% of the enemies will be attempting to plant a bomb.

Unfortunately, 90% of your team will also be helping you defend the doors, so I suggest you hold fire on any enemies until you have confirmed they are not soldiers. (A soldier is represented by a small shield with three rounds (bullets) in it, just to the left of his health bar.)

Once an enemy soldier has planted a charge, immedietely and single-mindedly bulldoze towards the door and hold X when in range to begin the defusing process. As I stated above, most of your team will be defending this room, they can deal with the intruders, you just want to be defusing.

Obviously, if online players are being non-compliant, you can set your Campaign settings to Solo play, whatever difficulty you choose, to make things run a little smoother.

This achievement is for stopping an explosive from going off. To do this, load up a campaign that requires you to do a lot of defending and set it to easy. Change your class to Engineer and just mess around until you hear someone talk about a bomb being set. Set your objective to the Disarm objective using the Objective Wheel and head to it. When you find it, just hold X on it for a few seconds and *pop* goes the chiev-o.

Required Class: Engineer
Required Ability: Standard Engineer Kit
Ability Unlocked: Rank 1 (automatically unlocked)

There will be missions where the opposing team has a main objective to destroy something. There are a few secondary ones as well. Once a soldier on another team plants a charge, you must disarm it by holding on it.

You can only do this as an engineer. There will be missions where you will need to disarm a bomb. Whether the opposing team is trying to blow up a Primary objective or a secondary objective, there will be a teammate there to let you know if the opposing team is trying to do so. There will also be a time on the top right letting you know there is an enemy HE charge placed somewhere and you need to Disarm it. Most times you only have 40 seconds to disarm it. Disarming an HE charge takes 5 seconds.
