Plot[]
A cutscene before the level shows that Lt. Robiechauld and Sergeant Jonathan Callard are getting into a jeep when Leslie Baron comes over to report that the Polish lost their radio operator and Command wanted to send a Canadian radio operator to assist the Poles. The Lieutenant tells Baron to go assist the Poles. Baron replies by saying, "I'm not a coward, Lieutenant. My job is to protect our radio. Our only link to command and--" Before he finishes, the Lieutenant yells at him saying, "Now your job is to be the Poles' radio. Dismissed, private." So Leslie Baron did. After that, Jonathan asked if he was hard on him, but Robiechauld says, "I've got bigger worries than that." Then they set off to start the mission.
After the cutscene, the level begins and Robiechauld, Callard, Kyle Peterson, and the player must go through a house to get into town. Suddenly, one of the Canadians yelled, "AMBUSH!" They opened fire at the Axis who was firing their 42s until a tiger tank arrives, letting the Canadians escape. The player goes into the back yard where a German ambushes Cole from a shed. Cole and the German begin to fight that ends with Cole killing the German by hitting him in the face with the end of his gun. The player and his squad move into the house and later goes to another cutscene. Callard then tells Cole to get this door opened. As the player is about open it, the door breaks open by a German, causing the player that nearly fall his back after Callard yells "Careful!" They kill a German soldier and assault the town where they must go through a few houses to get to a tavern which they must defend. Another cutscene plays and one of the Canadians tells the Lt. about something wrong and he yells "WHAT IS IT?" They argued about the situation and Robiechauld says the the Poles are now stranded at Hill 262. Sure enough, a Mortar hits the tavern, blocking the entrance. The player defends the tavern by killing some motor squads and all Germans trying to get in. The player and his squad move to another house and, after Cole gains entry through use of a Crowbar, they move into the basement and plant charges to destroy the German tanks and to clear a path to send reinforcements to the Poles. The player must kill all the Germans in the house's basement, plant a charge on a barrel, and got back to his squad in a safe distance.
The clip plays with the Lieutenant and Callard talking. Callard says the fuse is defective and they're all going to be killed. The Lieutenant tries to stop Callard but the Sergeant goes to deactivate them. As he does the charges go off and the screen goes black. Cole wakes up and Kyle Peterson says "He's Okay! Lieutenant!" The Lieutenant looks sad during the clip but then becomes a little happy that Cole is still alive, but the Lieutenant is still upset about the loss of Jonathan Callard. The Lieutenant says, "Bon, we thought we lost you there. Like we lost Callard." Callard is to be nominated to receive the Victoria Cross and Cole and possibly Peterson were promoted to Corporal ever since the player was originally Private. Then Lieutenant Robiechauld says that it's time to get some reinforcements to the Polish.

Trivia[]
- In the intro cutscene Jean-Guy Robiechauld is seen holding a Sten while Jonathan Callard is holding a Bren. However, neither of them are holding those weapons during the actual mission.
- The marching Canadian troops in the opening cutscene are all equipped with M1 Garand rifles.
- In the level's beginning, Robiechauld will say "Careful with those forty-twos!" for no reason.
- The Dodge WC's that follow the player's APC have no drivers or troops.
- When standing in the room where the first MG42 can be found and look to the right of the house the player came from, an unlimited number of Germans can be seen coming around a corner until both houses with the MG42s are cleared. Another group of German soldiers will just stand near the corner and will only move if the player attack them. If the player kills them all with a grande, a new group will spawn and stand near the corner.
- The soldier found before the tavern will have a randomly generated rank and name, but Robiechauld will always call him "Sergeant".
- The King Tiger can clips through the destroyed Sherman at the beginning of the level and breaks through walls. It also clips through a destroyed Opel Blitz.
- If the player does not enter the storage basement, the King Tiger will shoot and kill the player instantly.
