These are the guys that will help you through most of the game, they are brave (well.....not the scientists who are scared of everything.) They are NOT cannon fodder, they are critical to your succes.
At the start of the game these prove to be very handy and can be very helpful while destroying enemies. But later in the game these fellows aren't very helpful, they are more help dead with you having the ammo than alive. They can be good sometimes though, they make a good destraction while you ran like hell. And another thing, they arn't afraid to defend themselves and their fellow workers, so i shouldn't mess around with your crowbar near them. :-D
