"Everyone was enjoying a siesta at the mission until that dirty
dog Hector Baboso decided to liven things up. Now everyone's at each
other's throats! Make 10 kills within 10 minutes for a trophy!"
Strategy:
Getting the platinum here is based on a lot of luck and some skill. Try to start in the outside area or somewhere near it. Your weapon of choice should be the pistols (Luger x2 ?) that you start out with. Hang out near the fountain outside and kill anyone you see. If you die, you probably won't have time to get the Platinum, so restart. Don't go hunting bots unless you only need one or two kills. It takes practice and much luck to get under 40 seconds.

"Dr. Peabody left the morgue door open and now zombies are running
loose all over the Hospital. Visiting time starts in 10 minutes -try to
kill 15 of the living dead before then."
Strategy:
This level is reasonably diffiult to achieve a platinum on. My time was 58.1s (phew!). Luck is a huge factor as usual. There are no specific points where you should stay (camp) except perhaps the main downstairs central room (with tables in it).
The laser gun was my weapon of choice throughout the mission as enemies can be killed in two shots. Charge the gun for about half a second and unleash one shot then do the same again and the enmy should die (this process should takes approximately 3 seconds.
If you have the plasma autorifle, use the sticky grenades on enemies and run away. Any other weapon is comparitively unsatisfactory, and the homing rocket launcher costs too much time, because you have to hike to the hospital toilets to get it.
Please remember, luck is a massive factor in your success

"Prove your authority to the young cadets during combat training!
Everyone has 6 lives each, but lose them all, and you'll be out of the
military for good!"
Strategy:
Restart until I'm either near the minigun by the plane wheels, or next to the maximum damage icon. If I start by the damage icon, I immediately run out to the hangar taking out as many guys as possible with the Soviet as I make my way to the aforementioned minigun. Starting by the maximum damage gives you the advantage of killing enemies quicker, and with less bullets (therefore cutting down on the time it takes to grab another minigun). All of these things end up saving you time, which is all this level comes down to.
Rule #1: Stay in the hangar!
The hangar's wide-open design, combined with the minigun's pinpoint accuracy, is the perfect match. I stay in the hangar and hope for favorable respawns. If the enemies cluster across the map, I've noticed that nine times out of ten they take each other out right about the time I arrive..... so I just ran all the way across the map to kill one or two guys as their victims are respawning where? Oh, that's right, the hangar I just left! Yeah, you see my point. This takes a little discipline, I know I always want to start booking it across the map when I see a some enemies. The only time I'll run towards a cluster is near the end of the match. Press start and you can see how many lives the enemy has, if all they've got are ones, then you don't have to worry about respawning. Go make 'em dead.
Rule #2: Be quick on the draw.
If you do get a good enemy respawn session going, you must be able to turn and shoot very quickly. Using the radar constantly to monitor positions, and the minigun to shoot, you can take out an enemy on the other side of the hangar with no problem.
The key here is to kill the enemies as soon as they can register hits so you can get them respawning ASAP. I believe that by using pretty much the same strategy as Scrap Metal, where you have to be able to locate and destroy your opponent in the blink of an eye, you can get your time down to where it needs to be (under 1:10.0, I believe).
EXTRA INFO:
After getting the minigun behind the wheels, you shouldn't stay there. Instead, get back out into the open area and position yourself backed up quite a ways from the front of one of the two doors. I usually went to the left door (if you were at the back of the hangar facing the minigun). There's two reasons for this:
1. The game logic sometimes makes the enemies wander around the inner areas if you stay in that alcove with the minigun. It's like they detect you off to the left or right, but don't take the walls into account, so they stay in an area you can't shoot them from. Staying backed up in the open hangar, they tend to come straight for your position if they aren't currently in a firefight.
2. You want to be able to shoot the enemies as soon as you see them. If you're going to be in an area where they can funnel in to you, then you want to be at the chokepoint (i.e., the doors into the hangar). I took the left door because I could shoot guys coming in from the far end of the hallway past the door, and with the way the two doors are positioned, I could still nail guys as soon as they popped out of the right door. If you stand at the right door, enemies coming in from the left door have to walk a little further before you can hit them, which equals more time wasted, which equals less chance of getting platinum.
That's about as good as it gets for explaining how I strategized this level. Even if you do everything right, you'll still need luck.
Bummer.
