FIRST ASSIGNMENT: Recon the town
Map legend: 1 - starting area; 2 - first recon point; 3 - cover point for your squad; 4 - alternative route to your destination; 5 - area where you'll surprise enemy units; 6 - entrance to the shed
You'll start the game near allied forces (1 on the map), so you won't have to worry about being attacked by anyone. Ignore your colleagues for the time being and proceed directly to a nearby windmill (2 on the map) [#34]. Just as in the previous mission, you'll have to get to the top. Approach an opening and press the action key to unlock the first recon point. Read the report (Windmill) and head back to your teammates.
#34
Order both teams to follow your lead. You should also notice that an MG Team has been replaced with a Bazooka Team. I'm sure that you'll find this new squad to be extremely useful. Start off by ordering both your teams to move towards a nearby brick wall (3 on the map) [#35]. You should proceed alone to your right in the meantime, because you'll find an unguarded passageway there (4 on the map). Press the crouch key and start moving south (slowly!).

It's really up to you on how you want to proceed with this objective. You can decide to attack enemy units right away or you can take your time to find a good spot from where you'll be able to surprise them. Make sure that you use all the benefits of having a rocket team at your disposal. You can consider ordering one of your teams to move closer to the shed once you've eliminated a few soldiers (5 on the map) [#36]. Your colleagues shouldn't have any problems eliminating enemy units.

Your final task here will be to clear the entrance to the shed. It's shouldn't be too difficult. Start off by approaching this area from the west (6 on the map). As for enemy soldiers, the easiest way to get rid of them will be to use grenades. It's also important to find a good cover. Make sure you've killed all of them [#37] and allow both of your teams to get here.
