Rounding up the team: We had to ensure that all on-board understood the safety aspect while covering.

For those who were willing to shoot, we had to address their concerns collectively and be a 100% transparent regarding the safety provisions. We wouldn't want our own to feel like we are pushing them into a war zone. No escaping from the new norm:
