"SNIP.....

“Over 100 U.S. service members have been diagnosed with mild traumatic brain injuries in the wake of the January 8 Iranian missile attack on the al Asad military base in Iraq,” CNN reports.

“The Pentagon and President Trump had initially said no service members were injured or killed in the Iranian missile attack… Last month, Trump said he does not consider potential brain injuries to be as serious as physical combat wounds, downplaying the severity of the injuries suffered in Iraq.”

Considering this started off with zero casualties, "more than 100" isn't a very reassuring locution. How many more than 100 might we be talking about? It's nice to see, though, that Dr. Trump has deemed the injuries not very serious, which probably explains the initial report.
