<Which army units did we have in Afghanistan at the time which were held back? >

Sorry if you're not capable if looking something up for yourself I am not going to do it for you. I can't name the units nor where they were at at the time of the Tora Bora battle. I do remember this, it was the 5th special force which were pulled off of the job of looking for bin Laden and sent to Iraq to hunt for Saddam. I also know there was at least one of them who said they were close to finding bin Laden when they were pulled out. These men were fluent in speaking the language used in Afghanistan. They were replaced with men who knew Spanish as their second language if I remember correctly.
