There is a bug in Arma 2 that will make this command execute every time the screen with "Receiving..." has been displayed.
If this code is put in the Init.sqf it will run the startcam.sqf script when the loading screen has disappeared onPreloadFinished '[fire1] execVM "scripts\startcam.sqf"'; It will however also run every time a player change graphics settings, alt-tab or do anything else that will trigger the loading screen.
You will have to script around it with if statements to get it to run only in the beginning of the mission.
