Introduction/Briefing: \__________________________
==================================================
Safely extracting from the Grand Canyons after the daring prison escape, there
is no time to relax. Major Jones is aware of a secret meeting being held at
an island, off the coast of Mexico at a SPADS Camp. The meeting will consist
of the leader of the SPADS Camp, Colonel McCall and a few other conspirators.
You need to insert at the outskirts of the base and infiltrate into the inner
area of the camp, to record the meeting.

Mission Walkthrough: \____________________________
==================================================
You start at the back of the green boat, facing towards the guard tower with
the spotlight ahead. You need to avoid the actual spotlight when you go near
it, or else you will fail the mission.
Jump off the boat into the water. Major Jones will tell you that there is a
sewerage drain underwater, underneath the watch tower. You can stay afloat on
the surface or dive underwater, but if you are staying underwater, make sure
you come up every now and then so you can take a breath, or else you will die.
The counter on the bottom of the screen shows you how long you have got before
you run out of oxygen.
For now, it is probably best to go underwater. Move straight, towards the
spotlight, avoiding it even if you are underwater and swim until you can see
the sewerage tunnel entry just to the left of the actual spotlight. Go up the
surface again to take a breath before swimming through the tunnel. Once you
get to the opposite side of the tunnel, you end up in an open area with
two guards at the walkway above. You are also shown a hook which you can use
your grapple on to get up the walkway. Wait until the two guards walk off and
use the grapple to get up. Make sure you are directly underneath the hook so
you can get up! Swing and jump on towards the platform with the black and
yellow striped markings.
There are three doors in this room. You cannot open any of them in this area!
For now, move to the door on the opposite side from the platform you landed
on. Near the door is a console that controls on of the tunnel doors further
ahead. Press the action button to activate the switch, opening a door in
the sewerage tunnel. As soon as you put the switch on, pull out your pistol!
A guard walks from the door at the opposite side, from the left. He walks
near the door closest to you before he turns around and walks away. Hide at
the side of the console closest to the crates so he cannot see you and once
he turns around, kill him using the pistol.
Go back to the platform you landed on using the grapple. Jump down to the
water again and turn right, entering another sewerage tunnel. This sewerage
tunnel is relatively long, so you cannot pass it in one breath. While swimming
down the long straight, turn into the first right tunnel and surface up the
water to take another breath. There are another two guards above talking
on the metal walkway, but you can just swim off and turn right back into the
straight of the tunnel. When you are reaching towards the end of the
tunnel, a white rectangle highlights where you have to leave the tunnel. It
is a small gap on top of the tunnel. Use this to exit the tunnel.
Exit the mini-tunnel into the huge valley area. Whatever you do, do not fall
off! It is a pretty steep valley! There are two walkways above with one guard
patrolling each one. This is your best chance to pick them off with the
Crossbow from the ledge you are currently standing on! You will notice that
they do not stop moving, so if you want to try them to stop, fire a shot next
to them so they are aware of your position. They look towards your direction
but because they cannot actually see you properly, this gives you time to
shoot them at the head while they are standing completely still. Shoot both
guards and use the grapple on the first hook. Swing far enough so you are
able to safely land on the first ledge, which is closest to the second grapple
hook. Do the same thing for the second grapple hook. When you make it to the
last ledge, turn right into the small passage.
When you get towards the end of the passage, you will hear Standwell and
McCall in a conversation. You can safely leave the passage and eavesdrop on
the conversation if you wish, but stay crouched just incase. Once the
conversation is done, move towards the shaft in the ground that has smoke
coming out of it.
Punch the mesh blocking the shaft and climb down the ladder. When you get to
the bottom, Jones tells you to plant the bug inside the tent McCall goes in.
Crawl through the vent to finish this part of the mission.
