During the retreat, most of the US equipment and troops were almost destroyed by the Soviet attackers but thanks to Captain Bannon's organized retreat, Colonel Sawyer's leadership's and Lieutenant Parker's and Captain Webb's skills and tactics, they were able to slow the Soviets' advance into the state of Washington. The fate of the surviving US forces who retreated are currently unknown whether they joined Colonel Sawyer's battalion or were killed by the Soviets while on retreat.
