Others will no doubt respond. This is something that soldiers do. Leave no-one behind. It's right near the top of the Code of Honor. Maybe only those who have lived and fought as a team can understand.

I think it's more than that.

How likely are you to take risks if you know that you might be captured or killed and your "buddies" will leave you if they can't get to you?

I think you're far more likely to take risks if you know that your buddies are going to come after you if you get into trouble.

Yes, it's teamwork. It's the kind of team that always fights to its fullest.
