Thought Zero got us out of Iraq.

Obama ended our troops being involved in combat missions or having boots on the ground.

[article] the first American combat death

That was a misunderstanding. It was not a combat operation. The Pentagon spokeshole was spinning that all day.

Thirty troops from Delta Force on an "advise and assist role" participated in the raid when Kurdish "Cobra" commandos were overwhelmed after entering the walled compound on their own, the official said.

I know the Ops quite well. I was never Delta but spent a lot of time planning operations with them and other SF. We all used to swap combat resources and intelligence too.

So 30 may be what was on the ground but add to that the transport Helo, attack helo, the air cap of fixed wing CAS and "Spookie" overhead and the numbers grow.
