again, that's not what it means.. that's simply what you think it means.
so here goes- if there is a clear cut specific number that defines troops on the ground what is it and where is it defined?
the best answer is when an American is in-country shooting at an enemy with the potential to get shot back at by the enemy.
i assure you that if any of that special ops team got shot and killed, that person would have been considered a troop on the ground, in country.
and nevermind the fact that i provided a succinct and clear overview of the history of the term which you waxed over.
