The number is still 19, according to the latest presidential letter to Congress reporting on troops deployed abroad equipped for combat.
There's really no news here, just a reminder that U.S. forces are still engaged in operations around the globe, most with no end in sight.
Congress can't complain, as some members did after U.S.military deaths in Niger a couple of years ago, that they haven't been told.
Regrettably,there is still insufficient political will to replace the 2001 AUMF with something that actually deals with the situations where 3 presidents have sent forces.
