John Jameson McCarthy:
They are accompanied by the ILTIS with Andropov, Walsh or Kessler (probably Kessler) and one other volunteer.
I agree that Kessler is the more logical choice.
John Jameson McCarthy:
Kessler also spreads the word that we'll pay really well for radios and night vision gear if people come to the compound to trade.
I'm not overly keen on spreading the word that we'll pay really well for electronics then telling people where to find us. Likewise, what are we going to pay with? Diesel? That general conversation sounds to me a bit like it might be inviting a little too much attention / potential trouble. I'd suggest leaving off the part about inviting people to come to the compound and also trying to look at ways of converting some of the diesel into other tradeable commodities.
John Jameson McCarthy:
Everyone else works in the compound
Unless there's a medical emergency Riedel will be sleeping off her hangover.
