"We abandoned the troops in Somalia (Blackhawk Down)."

Explain this statement.... No troops were abandoned, they went on a mission they had been trained very well for and chose the conditions for carrying it out... They underestimated the "rag tag" enemy and took casualties they didn't expect. They refused to leave their dead buddies behind and took more casualties as a result... But no one abandoned them...
