US officials told POLITICO up to 60 advisers could be sent to help

The US is considering increasing its small military presence in Ukraine by sending up to 60 additional military advisers, POLITICO reported on Saturday, the same day the House approved $61 billion in spending for the proxy war.
Four unnamed US officials told POLITICO that the additional troops would "support logistics and oversight efforts for the weapons the US is sending Ukraine."
Pentagon spokesman Brig. Gen. Pat Ryder said the potential deployment would augment US personnel based at the US Embassy in Kyiv. "Throughout this conflict, the DOD has reviewed and adjusted our presence in-country as security conditions have evolved. Currently, we are considering sending several additional advisers to augment the Office of Defense Cooperation (ODC) at the Embassy," Ryder said.
Back in October 2022, the Pentagon announced that ODC and defense attaché personnel were back in Ukraine after being absent for the first few months of Russia's invasion. The Pentagon said at the time that the personnel were conducting “onsite” inspections of US-provided weapons.

Much of the $61 billion aid for Ukraine gets laundered right back into US weapon manufactures. News update related to this post for 22 April 2024:
Sending US advisors (military) to Ukraine to salvage their expensive junk:
How many of these US corporation executives waving Ukrainian flags in the US congress have connections back to US weapon manufacturers?
The UK-US commercial proxy war against Russia will grind down every last Ukrainian male then work their way down until everyone in Ukraine who picks up a weapon is killed and that includes convicts.
