Get string before specific word in UNIX

Hi All,

I'm writing unix shell script and I have these files. I need to get name before _DETL.tmp.

Code:
ABC_AAA_DETL.tmp
ABC_BBB_DETL.tmp
ABC_CCC_DETL.tmp
PQR_DETL.tmp
DEF_DETL.tmp
JKL_DETL.tmp
YUI_DETL.tmp
TG_NM_DDD_DETL.tmp
TG_NM_EEE_DETL.tmp
GHJ_DETL.tmp
RTY_DETL.tmp

output will be

Code:
ABC_AAA
ABC_BBB
ABC_CCC
PQR
DEF
JKL
YUI
TG_NM_DDD
TG_NM_EEE
GHJ
RTY

AWK can be used to get with $1...$n, but here number of words between _ delimiter is different. Can someone give me an idea?
