Eight U.S. service members were treated for traumatic brain injury and smoke inhalation after a one-way drone attack in Syria over the weekend, a Pentagon spokesperson confirmed Tuesday.

Of those eight, three service members have already returned to duty, and the rest are still under medical observation, Pentagon spokesperson Maj. Gen. Patrick Ryder told reporters at a briefing.

 
Ryder stressed that "none of the injuries are life-threatening," but provided no other details on the condition of the service members or the severity of the brain injuries.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
