If that's your main worry, it would be best to put together a team for emergencies made up of natives. I, too, could be sent home at any point. The longer we're here doesn't change the possibility that it could happen on any day.

I propose letting me hand-pick a trustworthy team out of the men I've worked with so far. I can still take point, but should both of us disappear, they would be already on deck for the future. Is that fair?
