The number of U.S. troops injured in the Iran war surged this week without any official explanation from the Pentagon.
Another 29 Navy sailors and eight Marines have been wounded, bringing the total number of war wounded to 861, according to updated numbers in the Pentagon’s Defense Casualty Analysis System (DCAS).
The Defense Department has not clarified how or when the 37 troops were injured, though a Navy official told The Washington Post that all the sailors had already returned to duty. Likewise, neither President Donald Trump nor anyone else from his administration has publicly acknowledged the rising toll of injuries as the war enters its seventh month.
