Military Times: Several hundred active-duty troops brought in to help if needed with the civil unrest in the nation’s capital are leaving Washington, D.C., Thursday, just a day after their initially planned departure was abruptly delayed.

The official said Defense Secretary Mark Esper has approved the move.
