The president has a variety of military powers, but mostly in conjunction with the Congress. Although the President has the power to request a declaration of war, he needs a positive vote from the Congress (both the House and the Senate) for war to be declared. However he has the ability under the War Powers Act to send troops to fight for up to 60 days so long as the Congress is advised prior. Additionally, the president is the Commander-in-Chief, meaning he issues orders and guidance to the Joint Chiefs of Staff for them to implement. He is also involved in the budget process, which funds America's wars.
