2,400!!!!!!!!!!!I think casualties means deaths.
Reply:Elaborate. Casualties means the total number of dead %26amp; wounded, while fatalities are just deaths.
Reply:2400


if in a battle wounded and mia are not casualties if thats what you mean
Reply:Casualties DO include all wounded and missing soldiers. A casualty is essentially a soldier who is no longer capable of fighting, or for that matter it can also imply any asset no longer usable due to enemy action or accident. A horse could be a casualty, or a supply wagon. Usually though it refers only to the loss of combatants.
Reply:You might want to add a little context to your question. In general military operations over the past century or so, it%26#039;s a general rule of thumb that a quarter to a third of casualties are deaths, but that%26#039;s only a very rough guide.
