   Green Beret is superb - but it is hard. Much, much harder on the C64 than   
   the original arcade (which you can download and play on MAME).   
      
   The best way to win old C64 games (that I have found) is to make use of a   
   common PC 'facility' - use the snapshot feature VICE to save your position.   
   That way you can keep reloading the game and get further and further.   
      
   Of course you would negate any hero points if you actually completed the   
   game as this would, technically, be cheating - but I won't tell. ;)
