Rescue is the opening mission in Conflict: Desert Storm.
Story
On July 24, 1990 Iraqi forces began massing on the Kuwait border. As negotiations broke down, United Nations Special Forces teams were dispatched to the Middle East. On August 2, Iraq invaded Kuwait. As Iraqi tanks crossed the border, the Special Forces moved into action. —Loading Screen Description The mission begins with a cutscene showing Paul Foley and an un-named special forces operater in the process of setting an explosive charge on a bridge linking Iraq and Kuwait. They are discovered by a patrolling Iraqi, and a firefight ensues. The other operator is presumably killed and Foley is taken captive after being wounded. The following day, a UH-60 Black Hawk drops John Bradley outside the area to initiate a rescue of Foley and complete the original mission.Briefing
—Mission Briefing
Objectives
Rescue- Foley is being held in a small building, north-east of the bridge. Secure the position, then rescue Foley.
C4- When Foley was captured, the guards took his C4 plastic explosive charge. Find the C4, then use it to blow the bridge.
Bridge- Use the C4 to destroy the upper central struts of the bridge.
Extraction- Return to the landing zone with Foley for helicopter extraction.
Triva
- The mission is purported to take place August 2nd. However, the opening cutscene shows the initial team was detected at 23:00 hours (11 P.M) on August 2nd. The following day would in fact be the 3rd. This is presumably an oversight.
