First time I ever played this very famous game. I've since played several versions and the NES version is one of the more difficult versions.

As the crack shot Commando, your mission is to make your way through enemy territory. Your ultimate goal is to pass through the Iron Walls and destroy the enemy base.

Move the controller to maneuver your Commando through the enemy's terrain. Trees and other obstacles can provide cover from enemy bullets and
grenades.

While moving through enemy territory, take care not to fall into rivers or
ponds. You will lose a life if you do. You will also lose a life if a
motorcycle or jeep runs over you, so dodge or destroy them.

Watch for the enemy's dynamite trucks. If you have any grenades, lob one
into a dynamite truck to destroy the truck and its cargo. This is the only
enemy vehicle you can destroy.

Press the left fire button to shoot. To launch grenades, press the right
fire button.

To increase your grenade supply, pick up any boxes that you find at
defeated outposts. Each box contains one grenade. The number of grenades
you have left is shown at the top of the screen.

You score bonus points for rescuing prisoners, destroying enemy officers,
and blowing up the enemy's pillboxes and vehicles. Rescue a prisoner by
killing the escorts. Lob two grenades on a pillbox to destroy it. (From the Atari 7800 version instruction manual)
