4 Gonzalo - The daily casualty numbers I've been hearing for the past month are 300–600 KIA, 800–1,500 WIA. Considering that the current Army composition is 20% career military and 80% conscripts—when the percentages were reversed at the start—I think these numbers might be accurate.

A million men died at the Somme. About 25,000 men died in three days at Gettysburg. 100 men a day? That's rookie numbers. We've not had a real bad war in two generations.
