21 troops have been evacuated from Iraq. Others have returned to duty. Has the military discouraged troops from reporting brain injury causing the late injury reports?
If the Iranian missile strikes were so powerful, did the US military fail to adequately protect its troops from strikes it knew were coming?
The injury toll from the Iran missile strike is increasing daily. Thank god there were no troops with bone spurs at the sites or deaths would have been certain.
Fortunately for the Iranians, thick-skulled Donald Trump has denounced brain-injured troops as thin-skulled, sissies, and cowards. It is not Iran's fault that sissies and cowards have infested Donald Trump's military.
When will the toll from the Iranian missiles stop growing?
Are Iranian missiles more powerful than US intelligence was aware of?

Fourteen additional U.S. service members have been diagnosed with traumatic brain injuries from an Iranian attack on an Iraqi air base earlier this month, the Pentagon announced Thursday.
A Department of Defense official said that 64 U.S. service members in total have been diagnosed with mild traumatic brain injury, or a TBI. The updated figures are a 14-person increase from what the department reported Wednesday.
The department initially reported 34 service members had been injured last week, before upping the number to 50.
Thirty-nine members have returned to duty, Pentagon spokesman Lt. Col Thomas Campbell said. Twenty-one service members have been taken to Germany for further evaluation and treatment of TBI.
The Iranian attack on the Iraqi airbase was in retaliation for President Trump’s order for a drone strike that killed Iranian Gen. Qassem Soleimani near Baghdad International Airport.
Trump did nothing wrong.
Admitting to any success by the enemy's attack, does nothing for US, and gives them a propaganda victory.
What part of this bothers you?
As CIC he failed to protect the 64 brain injury victims.
