I think your right. Both nasty battles any way you measure them. For that matter Hannibal killed tens of thousands of Romans at Cannae using swords and spears and such in part of a day in an area about the size of Central Park. barca.fsnet.co.uk More on bloody battles militaryhistoryonline.com Of course I'm not saying that because our current casualties are much less then Cannae or the battle of Stalingrad that we can just consider them of no consequence but their only consequential because we care about individuals (and that is a very good thing, can you imagine American power chained to a bloody minded brutal dictatorship?) In strictly military terms the level of casualties in Iraq is so low as to be almost meaningless. Tim
