Allied Mission 03
Despite losing territory in Germany, the Allies have managed to gain some ground in Southwest Poland. Now, it is up to a commando group to sneak past Soviet lines and destroy a series of bridges that would allow the Soviets to funnel a large force to the front.
Based on more google-fu, I suspect it is in the area of Bialystok/Grodno.
Location: Bialystok, Poland (Or the nearby area)
Objective: Destroy the bridges in the nearby area to blunt the Soviet advance.

Author's note: Limited forces, very good map "flow", and the best character in the game. A really well structured mission all around.
Name: Commander A9
Aliases: Unknown
Affiliation: Allied Forces
Occupation: Commander within the Allied Forces
Voiced/Played by: N/A
Participated in saving Einstein from Soviet captivity. Led a force to protect a vital supply convoy in the opening stages of the War.
Name: Tanya Adams
Aliases: None
Affiliation: Allied (Unofficially)
Occupation: Professional Volunteer
Voiced/Played by: Lanae Freeborn (Game)/ Lynne Litteer (FMV)
A professional volunteer, which is why she's still alive. Instrumental in saving Einstein from Soviet captivity.
ARTILLERY
RANGE: Long
ARMOR: Light
WEAPON: 155mm Cannon
Very effective, if somewhat inaccurate, Artillery can devastate infantry and structures from afar. Its slow speed and light armor require that it be protected.
Author's Note: Faster than in Tiberian Dawn, I still regularly skip out from using it. Its handy against infantry.
ENGINEER
RANGE: N/A
ARMOR: None
WEAPON: None
An Engineer can fully repair any of your damaged buildings instantly. When sent to enemy buildings, an Engineer can damage or capture it.
Author's Note: Engineers get a huge nerf in Red Alert, with the loss of the ability to capture a building alone. Now, each engineer does damage to a building and, once it is "in the red", it becomes capturable. The player must rely on destroying bases rather than capturing them.
