Briefing:

Good Afternoon Gentlemen,

That was a job well done the night before last. We've picked up enemy troop movements near an old castle on the southern coast of Spitzbergen. The castle has a long history and was built during the middle ages. Prior to World War 2 it was renovated as a local tourist attraction. The building was suspected to be abandoned until the recent outbreak of hostilities. This castle is high up in the mountains near the coast and a small Norwegian village. Intel was able to pick up some information from locals in the area that has confirmed activity at the castle. Yesterday, a break in the weather allowed a satellite to fly overhead and take pictures. From the photos we picked up a couple of fortified bunkers flanking the only entrance.

You'll be inserted to the south of the castle under the cover of dusk. Your first task is to neutralize the bunkers flanking the entrance. The next task is to infiltrate the complex and secure some intelligence documents. The exact location of the documents within the castle is unknown, so you will have to search for them. Finally, you will have to capture Bogdnanov's intelligence officer. A Norwegian agent was inserted in to the local population. He has confirmed the presence of Bogdnanov's Intel officer. Officials in Washington along with Norwegian authorities have confirmed that there is a nuclear warhead that can't be accounted for. It is imperative that you bring him in alive for interrogation.

Cinemas:

There is an insertion cinema giving a recon view of the area.

Once the mission objectives are completed there is a cinema of a UH-60 retrieving the ghosts.
