[spoilers] Lucas as Section Chief

[HellsBells]

Lucas can't really be section chief can he ?
He pretty emotionally unstable, which is fine providing you're not in charge. He has been in a Russian jail for 8 years, surely some doubt will always remain concerning his loyalty. And he doesn't follow orders particularly well which again he could not get away with if he was section chief.
I think Lucas prefers the freedom of being a field officer and following his own plans and decisions.
