Description: This one took quite a lot of work. The timing needs to be accurate in the early stages so you don't end up waiting around for the lifts, and health and ammo are right from then on. I stay "quiet" rather than shooting the sergeants at the start to avoid waking some other sergeants behind them who would otherwise appear later on and be very annoying.

The 1% health finish was almost standard - my previous best also had one too.

There's one trick/exploit: lowering the floor in the red key area was surely not intended to be possible in this way. This means you don't need to wait for the staircase to build.
