There are a few hundred British troops in Iraq supposedly delivering training to the Iraqi security forces but they have been there for a while. Remains to be seen if they get out of dodge now or in the near future.

Special operations forces are another matter: Nothing official will be said but you can almost guarantee that there will be SAS/SBS on the ground working with USSOCOM and CIA Special Activities at any given time. Someone must have been eyes on the ground for yesterday's strike but we'll probably never find out who.
