If the guys here that you are referring to are the deputies, then I am unsure as to what you are wanting to mean here by your use of the word, {special}. A generally accepted meaning of the word, {special} is that those that are {special} are held in {a higher esteem than others in the same group} or that the {special} have {an unusual quality} that has the {special} {stand out from their peers} and that the quality could be {unique}.
If you could specify the following, then I could have the opportunity to understand what you are wanting to mean in relation to what the following are and then have the opportunitty to respond accordingly.
A. What special quality or qualities, if you are wanting to mean that, do the deputies here have?
B. Could any quality that you are wanting to use if that is what you are wanting to mean, be a unique quality? If so, why?
C. If you are wanting to mean that {special} is to be held in esteem, could you post your rationale for such?
D. If you are wanting to mean that {special} means that the deputies are redily distinguishable from others of the same catagory, who are the others?
E. In.[...I don't know how they do {it}...], could you specify what the {it} is?
