Cutscene
The Emergency Broadcast System is heard buzzing.
Shepherd: Someone turn off that damn TV.
The TV is turned off. Satellite pictures are shown of the CIA Headquarters, Camp David, and the Pentagon, all attacked by the Russians.
Shepherd: My Task Force is out of the country. I'm commandeering your unit, Sergeant Foley.
Sgt. Foley: Yes, Sir. All yours, Sir.
The cutscene introduces and analyzes an IAV Stryker, which is armed with a turret and can shield itself from RPGs with its Anti-Missile Defense System.
Shepherd: I've requisitioned a Stryker from the 8th Armored.
Sgt. Foley: Honey Badger's a mean bitch, Sir.
Shepherd: She'll walk you in. The Russians are burning through our defenses and our intel. Can't let 'em take this corner.
Sgt. Foley: Just point it out on the map, Sir. They won't take it.
The satellite tracks Private James Ramirez in Northeastern Virginia.

Sgt. Foley: Solid copy, Overlord. Divert to 4677 Brookmere Road once the guns are destroyed. Got it.
Overlord: Check back with me when you've completed your main objective. Overlord out.
Through this conversation, a C-130 is seen going down in flames and crashes near 4677 Brookmere Road.
Cpl. Dunn: Hey, look, I bet that's an AC-130, man. (Dunn mistakenly identifies this as an AC-130).

They pass a bridge tunnel into Arcadia. They encounter more Russian forces at the houses.
Sgt. Foley: Everyone, move up!

They fight through the houses, one by one, killing Russians inside each house while supported by Badger One. The team comes to the backyard of a mansion where anti-aircraft guns are stationed on a golf course, supported by mobile SAM launchers and BMPs.

Sgt. Foley: Overlord, Hunter-Two-One-Actual. Triple-A has been neutralized. We're heading to 4677 Brookmere Road. Interrogative - what exactly are we looking for, over?
Shepherd: Sergeant Foley, this is General Shepherd. Your objective is to extract a high value individual from a 'panic room' on the second floor of that house.
Sgt. Foley: Yes sir!
Shepherd: He'll be expecting you. Challenge is "Icepick", countersign is "Phoenix". Get him outta there and report back to Overlord. Shepherd out.
Sgt. Foley: All right, you heard the man - 4677 Brookmere Road. Move!
They arrive at 4677 Brookmere Road, the house's front yard blazing from the wreck of the earlier-downed (A)C-130. At a baseball field, two AV8 Harriers are seen taking off vertically. Inside the house, a Russian is seen scavenging through a refrigerator. He is shot and killed by the team. They move upstairs.
Sgt. Foley: Icepick. Icepick! Something's not right here... Check the panic room - move!
They arrive at the 'panic room' which is open, and a couple bodies are lying on the floor.
Sgt. Foley: Hmph. No sign of forced entry... Ramirez, get that briefcase... what's left of it.
Ramirez retrieves the briefcase. Dunn discovers a dead Russian soldier with tattoos.
Cpl. Dunn: Sarge, check out these tats. Not your average trooper, hooah?
Sgt. Foley: Hooah. Get a couple of photos for G-2 and check the bodies for intel.
Cpl. Dunn: Hooah.
Sgt. Foley: Shepherd's not gonna like this. Overlord, the HVI is dead.
