End and exit this patrol. Restart SH3 for this commander. When given the chance to load a new mission, DO NOT load the default IN BASE BEFORE MISSION. Select instead the patrol just prior to the corrupted one, IN BASE AFTER MISSION. That will delete the corrupted patrol you just exited.

You'll need to re-award medals, quals, and promotions earned on that mission before you start a new mission.
Oof, I would really hate to have to resort to this. I'll keep it in mind as an option, but I'd much rather fix the game while keeping the progress I have on this patrol.

I saved underwater and reloaded because I read that it helped with a similar issue in SH4; obviously, they're not the same game, but I thought it wasn't a bad idea on principle. I rolled back to the save that was prior to the underwater one, so hopefully it didn't do any damage.
