Putting on my logical head for a moment. Value wise, an injured and highly trained member of the forces is more valuable than a corpse.

They did the correct thing.
Somebody gives them the orders. It's not like a robot gives the orders that the brainwashed soldiers are then just blindly forced to obey.

I think them leaving the Afghan journalists body (how exactly did they know he was dead and not just wounded as well?) there is a good metafore of the whole war. Afghan casualties mean nothing to the coalition.
