A Blood Spattered Journal

You find a personal journal with some very interesting information in it.

The author of this journal is a 5th Column soldier who has apparently had a change of heart. It describes their recent activities, a plot to revive their slumbering master, and several key 5th Column bases. In the beginning of the journal he sounds very sure of his organization's direction, however each page slowly shows that he is losing faith in the 5th Column's activities. The last entry is very hastily written and within it he makes a cry for help, and pleads with whoever finds this journal to free him so he can begin to make up for the sins of his past.

You could try and save that 5th Column traitor, he might still be inside their organization desperately seeking an out.

Alternatively, you could go after a key 5th Column headquarters, defeat every agent inside including their base commander and see what intelligence you can dig up that way.
