Why didn't President Trump mention the wounded American troops?
There was no confirmation on whether troops injured during President Donald Trump's military action were taken to BAMC, a Level 1 trauma center. Neither the Defense Department nor BAMC provided details about the medical evacuation flight or the number of injured American troops. BAMC directed all media inquiries to the Pentagon.
However, the New York Times reported that about six soldiers were injured on January 2 during Operation Absolute Resolve. Trump stated in a press conference that there were no fatalities and no equipment was lost. He did not mention the injured troops. OSINTDefender, a flight tracker monitoring the C-17 flight from Puerto Rico to San Antonio, cited CNN, reporting that a "handful of American troops sustained bullet and shrapnel wounds during last night's operation in Caracas, Venezuela," but none were life-threatening
