Mission 1 - Overview
Uday and Qusay's Last Stand

Tipped off by an Iraqi citizen, coalition forces raided a home in northeastern Mosul, Tuesday, July 22. The sons of expelled leader Saddam Hussein - - numbers two and three on the government's most wanted list - - were reported dead along with a bodyguard and the 14-year-old son of Qusay Hussein. Their capture, after weeks of frustrating setbacks for Coalition forces, was a critical victory, convincing many ordinary Iraqis that the regimes' days are truly over.

Note that this is a two-part missions: part one, in which you'll clear the surrounding area of opposing forces harassing your troops and part two, in which you'll attempt the building, capturing or killing the Hussein brothers.
