Robiechauld: Buck up, men. Are our men ready?
Callard: Can anyone be ready to march into hell?
Robiechauld: That tank crew's running out of time, Sergeant.
Leslie Baron: Sir!
Private Leslie Baron runs over to Robiechauld and salutes him. Robiechauld forcefully lowers Baron hand.
Baron: Word from Command. The Poles have taken Hill Two-Sixty-Two, but they lost their radio operator.
Robiechauld: (scoffs) We've got bigger problems than that, Private!
Baron: This adds to them, sir. Command wants us to send a radio operator to help the Poles.
Robiechauld: Well, then get going!
Baron: Sir?
Robiechauld: What are you waiting for? Mount Ormel's at least a day's drive away. Oh, Baron. Baron, I'm doing you a favor. one of our tank crew's gone missing. We're going off on a rescue op. That's dangerous business. You wouldn't want any part of it.
Robiechauld walks away, but Baron calls after him.
Baron: I'm not a coward, Lieutenant. My job's to protect our radio, our only link to Command and --
Robiechauld: (harshly) Now your job's to be the Poles' radio. Dismissed, Private. (pause) You've got your orders, soldier.
Baron relents and runs off to Mount Ormel.
Callard: You were a little hard on him, eh?
Robiechauld: I've got bigger worries than that. Get ready to move, we've got men waiting on us.

Private Cole rides in a personnel transport with his teammates as they approach a village. A German rocket fires and hits near the Canadians.
Callard: Ambush!
Cole and his men exit the vehicle and engage German infantry. A German Tiger tank appears and fires on the Canadians, destroying one of the Sherman tanks.
Callard: Tiger!
Robiechauld: Take cover! Take cover!
Cole, Callard, and Robiechauld run away from the Tiger tank and push through a village yard while engaging the Waffen-SS soldiers.
Robiechauld: Tabernak! Keep advancing! Move! Get into the trench! Hurry! 
Cole, Callard, and Robiechauld find themselves surrounded by artillery explosions as they spot a house ahead of them.
Robiechauld: We're sitting ducks out here! Into that house!
Cole and his team reach the house and shoot the German soldiers inside.
Callard: That tank's commander is persistent.
Robiechauld: Get to that house! Move!
Cole exits out the other side of the house and finds himself attacked by a Waffen-SS soldier from inside the shed. Cole engages in hand-to-hand combat with the soldier until he bashes him in the head with his own rifle. Cole enters another house and spots a member of the tank crew under attack.
Callard: There's one of the tank crew!
Cole saves the tank crew member from the attacking Germans.
Robiechauld: Get over here, Cole!
Cole regroups with his team at a door along with the tank crew member.
Robiechauld: Sergeant. Good to see you're well.
Tank Crew Sergeant: No thanks to Jerry. But, much thanks to your man here.
Callard: Cole's a good man... is this all of you who made it?
Tank Crew Sergeant: Jerry took prisoners. They're being held in a tavern up away flanked by forty-twos. We couldn't get near it.
Robiechauld: Now you have our help.
Callard: Cole, get those doors open!
Cole goes to open the doors, but a Waffen-SS soldier bursts them open and hits Cole.
Callard: Careful!
The Canadians shoot the soldier dead.
Robiechauld: Hurry to the next room!
The Canadian soldiers enter the room and then exit back out into the streets. They encounter more Waffen-SS soldiers and some German MG42s.
Robiechauld: There are still some 42's! Take them out!; There's an MG across the street!; Up on the roof! Another MG!
Cole moves through the buildings and shoots the MG42 gunners in the buildings. 
Robiechauld: Fall back to that tavern! Go!; Come on! The tavern's clear!; Tavern is secured. Form up!; Regroup in the tavern! Move!
Cole and his men make their way into the tavern.
Robiechauld: Gather up weapons and ammo. Take up positions. Someone cover that window.
Canadian Soldier: Sir.
Robiechauld: What is it?
Canadian Soldier: Well... we got what we came for, sir. The tank crew, I mean. And I was wondering...
Robiechauld: Spit it out, Private. I'm on a clock here.
Canadian Soldier: I was wondering why we aren't bugging out, sir.
Robiechauld: Because we're taking this town is why.
Canadian Soldier: I didn't... I thought we don't have the manpower, sir.
Robiechauld: Give those tankers guns and we do. Look, the Polish are stranded up on Mount Ormel, trying to hold on to that hill with both hands. They'll need reinforcements, reinforcements that'll have to move through this town to get there. You understand?
A mortar strike hits the tavern, blocking the entrance.
Callard: Mortars! Three crews!
Cole helps his team to defend the tavern from the attacking Germans. He shoots down the first mortar crew.
Robiechauld: Very good. Move on to the second.
Cole shoots the second mortar crew.
Robiechauld: Great. One more.
Cole shoots the final mortar crew.
Callard: In the back!
Robiechauld: The back of the tavern!
Cole helps to defend the tavern from the German's northern attack. Eventually, the Germans deploy smoke grenades to cover their movements.
Callard: Smoke grenades!
Robiechauld: They popped smoke!
The Waffen-SS soldiers pour into the tavern and attack the Canadians inside.
Callard: Hostiles inside! 
Robiechauld: Heads on a swivel! Focus, boys!
Cole continues to help his squad repel the German attackers until the northern assault is stopped. More Germans attack from the south, forcing the Canadians to refocus their efforts.
Callard: They're through the front door! 
Robiechauld: Get out of the tavern! Clear the street!
The Canadian soldiers run out of the tavern and into the street. A German Tiger tank appears and fires on the Canadians, who run to another house with a boarded-up entrance.
Robiechauld: Incoming! We have to flank that Tiger! The street is too dangerous! Get in this building! Use a crowbar on the door!
Cole takes a crowbar and pries open the wooden boards to unseal the entrance. The Canadians then run through the entrance and through the houses into a room with a hole in the floor.
Callard: Get down!
The Canadians jump down through the hole into a basement filled with explosive barrels and ammo crates.
Robiechauld: Careful with your fire here. One stray bullet could set this whole place off.
Callard: Looks like they converted the basement to ammo storage. There's enough explosives down here to take 'em out permanently.
Robiechauld: Good idea. Set a charge on these barrels. 
Callard: Move it, Cole! Set those charges!; Hurry! We don't have much time!
Cole sets an explosives charge on the barrels and runs out the basement with his teammates.
Fade to black. 
End of level.
== Cinematic Cutscene ==
Robiechauld and Callard duck their heads down, waiting for the explosives to detonate. But, nothing happens.
Robiechauld: What's wrong?
Callard: Fuse must be defective. Wait here.
Robiechauld: Sergeant, no wait--
Callard: If the fuse is defective, the charges are defective... and we're all dead.
Robiechauld: Jonathan--
Callard runs over to the charges and causes them to explode throughout the basement. The screen goes to black.
Some time later, Cole regains consciousness as the Tank Crew Sergeant checks him out.
Tank Crew Sergeant: He's okay. Lieutenant!
Robiechauld runs over to Cole. The Tank Crew Sergeant helps Cole up to his feet. All around the Canadians, the village is wrecked and the German tank is sunk from the explosion in the basement.
Robiechauld: Oh, good! Cole! Can you stand up there, Private?
Tank Crew Sergeant: Steady there...
Robiechauld: Bon [Good], we thought we lost you for a moment there. Like we lost Callard. I'm putting him in for the Victoria Cross, you know... and you for a promotion. Corporal. Alright! Someone get on the radio to Command! They can start moving armor through St. Lambert. Let's get some reinforcements to the Polish, eh?
Fade to black. End of level.
