Jaeger — briefing
Hello, soldier. You know, I've lost almost everyone close to me because of this carnage around. There's nobody to even talk to at dinner. There's you who comes by for an hour or two, but you go back to that war of yours, even if there's no point in fighting anymore. Eh, I won't burden you with my talks. I have a request for you. I had a good friend, we always were very close together - similar in character, understood each other perfectly. He's set up at the Cape Dalniy, in that old village, but far from the people - made a nice dugout for himself at the outskirts. I don't know if anyone still lives in that village, but I do want you to find my friend. I'll be waiting to hear from you, kid.
Objectives

Tactical notes
- WHERE TO LOOK: the abandoned village, where there is a dugout.
- The letter is UNDER THE DUGOUT'S DOOR — outside it, not inside. No need to go in.
On completion
Jaeger: Oh, so you found a note? Hold on, don't open it for now - I'll read it by myself later.
