Mission Prep[edit]
Snake may not participate in this mission as he's en route to Río del Jade to contact the FSLN comandante. Play as Alligator, your best soldier. The ★1 Fulton Recovery System is required to participate in this mission. You do not need to extract any hostiles, but bring a non-lethal weapon if you wish. If you hit the target with any lethal force, the mission is a failure; lethal weapons are not advised.
Puerto del Alba[edit]
The goal of this mission is to extract the target, just one soldier. The other soldiers don't have the skills to write home about and should not be neutralized and extracted unless you really want them. If you're not worried about S-ranking the mission, extract all of them.
You start by facing the east. Move forward and turn left to face the north.
- 1. Observe Soldier B
Move to point 1 and wait at the corner of the container. Keep an eye on Soldier B. When he turns around and moves out of your sight, it's safe to keep moving north. Turn eastward and you'll have a clear line of sight of Soldier C and the Target.
- 2. Observe Soldier C
Move to point 2 and wait at the corner of the container. Watch Soldier C. When he's out of sight, equip the Fulton Recovery System and move to the target. To equip the Fulton Recovery System, press and hold 
and use 
or 
to highlight the Fulton System, then release to equip it. Quickly move to the target, as you don't want Soldier C to turn and face you when you're moving.
- 3. Extract the Target; Wait for Soldier C
With the Fulton Recovery System equipped, stand over the target and press 
to extract him. Then, face the southern wall and press yourself up against it by facing the wall and holding . Alternatively, you may equip the Love Box. Wait until the guard passes you and then passes the corner of the nearby container before releasing .
Once Soldier C out of the way, run to the Recovery Point at the base of the stairs.

The target will join MSF immediately. Move him to R&D. Hopefully, he has Gunsmith (Assault Rifles), Gunsmith (Sniper Rifles), or Gunsmith (Machine Guns), though all three are quite rare on this acquisition.
If you extracted any other soldiers, they are only good for their GMP+ and should be moved to the Combat Unit.
