The president can give a pardons and he can take anyone he wants out of jail or prison no matter what, and he can also declare war!!
It was act restricting the presidents power to use the military
In the 20th century, U.S. presidents increasingly employed military force to expand executive powers, often bypassing Congress. Notable examples include the use of military interventions in Korea and Vietnam, where presidents asserted their authority to act decisively in foreign affairs without formal declarations of war. This trend was further solidified by the War Powers Resolution of 1973, which sought to limit presidential war-making powers but ultimately underscored the executive's ability to engage militarily in conflicts. As a result, presidents have often claimed a broader interpretation of their constitutional powers concerning military action, shaping the balance of power between the executive and legislative branches.
The president might send in troops to keep order after a flood, tornado, hurricane . Eisenhower used troops to protect the black student at Little Rock Central High. of course, troops were be used in a civil insurrection, as occurred with the Civil War.
The War Powers Act of 1973 has been invoked by U.S. presidents during various military engagements, notably during the conflicts in Grenada in 1983 and Libya in 2011. While presidents have often asserted their authority to use military force without congressional approval, they have also provided notifications to Congress under the Act, such as in the cases of military actions in Iraq and Afghanistan. However, the effectiveness and constitutionality of the War Powers Act have been subjects of ongoing debate, with many presidents opting to bypass its provisions.

I count five: Grant, Hayes, Garfield, B. Harrison and McKinley.
The US Presidents who were Civil War veterans who saw combat action were Grant, Hayes, Garfield and McKinley. Andrew Johnson has military rank as the military governor of Tennessee and Arthur was a supply officer in a non-combat position. Fillmore had a sort of honorary position in the home guard.
How many presidents had no military service at the time of their election?
I believe all presidents have used consumer in chief powers because that is what a president is... a commander in chief.
Lincoln's son, Robert, was in the Civil War, to his mother's great concern. Theodore Roosevelt's sons were all in WW I after he was President. Son Quentin was killed in combat.Eisenhower's son, John, had a military career.
