To: A strike

One of the greatest dilemmas in combat is deciding to save a fellow soldier or continue a mission. We are taught to never leave a soldier,sailor,or Marine behind. We have swim buddy and battle buddies. The first reaction is always to save a fellow soldier. The question is did this SEAL compromise the mission as two SEALs are out of action and the team is two men down or was the right thing to dive into the ocean? I know this question is brought up in Special Forces selection from books I read. Obviously, once a mission changes such as losing men,the mission changes dramatically. Thank God I never had this dilemma but I know I would instinctively jumped into that ocean.
