FYI, the game was 'Force 21', "a Real-time Strategy game made by Red Storm Entertainment in 1999 that features a storyline which has US forces fighting PRC (Chinese) forces in the year 2015."
From the review here:

"You view the game mainly from the Tactical 3D window. The camera is, sadly, always situated just above the lead vehicle in the selected platoon. A free roaming camera would have been better as it would have given you more opportunities to view the action. Still, the camera is very useful and really succeeds at drawing you into the action. The camera is very, very easy to use--just bump the edges of your screen with the mouse...well, the mouse cursor, not the actual mouse itself. The camera then spins around the lead unit of the platoon. Vertical movement isn't as good. The angle of the camera doesn't allow you to look straight down on your units or get down on the ground beside them. Oh well, c'est la guerre. There's also a Strategic view that's better for getting an overall impression of the terrain elevation, but it's no good for seeing the action. For the overall impression of the battle, I preferred to use the tiny strategic window in the corner of the screen."
