Post is a logging-crew foreman working at New Java Camp and remains loyal to Don Davidson after Davidson takes over New Java. Post doesn’t openly question Davidson as much as Aabi, Davidson’s other right-hand man, does.

Davidson knocks Post out with his gun in retaliation for ganging up on him, and Post likely dies when the helicopter crashes.
