The less each man knows of his mates, the better for all.

They might have gone to get some of their mates.

Well, you said if I brought a couple of mates down you'd get us in.

For the son of my mate, it might be better if she was gone.

What would either of his mates think if they saw him in this form now?

"But what about the three of our mates who were on watch?"

He already had his eye on a couple of potential mates.
